The BBC does loads of things that I dislike.  However, I have
to live with that and still pay all of the license fee.  My
only real choice would be to bin the TV and not pay at all.

The license model works on the premise that the BBC will give
you a chunk of stuff you like and another chunk of stuff you
don't.  I pay for Eastenders - eugh, but in return I get
Animal Planet - yay.

I can't get dsatt, but I can get dtt, should I get a rebate
on the dsatt development?

If you are successful, I'd like a refund for everything except
Radio5 Breakfast Show, News 24, news.bbc, Animal Planet and
the Accidental Angler.  I worked out last week that I've only
watched about 13 hours of TV in the last year.  I should get a
huge rebate.

The best way for you to find out would be through a FOI request.
