i hate to dampen this chatter but Voda have looked into this so much it hurts their eyes... u dont need a tv license to watch their mobile TV as the channels u are watching DONT get any cut of the license fees. BBC gets it so as long as u cant watch BBC which u cant everythin is ok...
Voda wouldnt release it if this was the case... Too much investment an time taken!

have vodafone made a public statement on this issue that you can link to?
I know its brief but the
TV licensing page says:
Quote:
Do I need a licence?
If you use a TV
or any other device to receive or record TV programmes (for example, a VCR, set-top box, DVD recorder or PC with a broadcast card) - you need a TV Licence. You are required by law to have one.
note "
or any other device" and I can find no where on the site, not even in the concessions section, where it mentions that you must be able to receive BBC in order to be liable for the fine.

thanks PK for the heads up. I've got a TV license myself but this is totally unfair and I see a drop in subscriptions (however it might not be so high)
