So I noticed... and now the US model is infecting over here and I'm giving up on more and more TV because of this... used to have limited adverts but now they're getting extended to the US model of grossly intrusive... means either forget it or no longer watch anything live so that it's possible to fast forward through them... personally I'd rather pay a fixed license fee and have no damn ads... each to his/her own...

If you're point is that money comes from (supposed) users of the service, unlike PBS here, then fine. But even PBS supporters wouldn't go for that model here.
