<p>I'd pay my license for the BBC website alone. </p>
<p>I'm not a huge iPlayer user, except for a little Doctor Who & Merlin, and the programming aside, their site is a great source of information. I used BBC Bitesize a huge amount when I was a kid, and I use the BBC News pretty exclusively as my source of (non-nerd) news. They get a bad rap for wasting money and being pro-government, but I can't help but see them as a benevolent organisation.</p>

<p>Perhaps a little known fact.</p>
<p>You need a TV license to watch live TV from the BBC website </p>

BURN THE HERETIC! :-)<br>

Do the TV Licensing lot give you any grief? "Sir, you have a TV* which<br>
is capable of receiving a signal. You must pay."<br>
<br>
In all honesty, you're not missing much. Just lots of adverts.<br>
<br>
*Maybe you don't have a TV, just big monitors?<br>
