Yeah, they've been around for years. It's
illegal to have anything capable of
receiving TV broadcasts in the UK without having a licence (about 160GBP/year,
approx $140US). Doesn't matter if the equipment isn't switched on - if it's
capable of receiving a signal then a licence is needed.
They're becoming worse then! It used to be black&white was exempted from the
tax.
What happened to the pound? used to be substantially more valuable than the dollar.
