Every time i buy a tin of beans or packet of cornflakes i contribute to the advertising revenue of all the commercial channels .People whining about having to pay for the BBC on the grounds of "i don't watch the channels so why should i pay" would do well to remember that even people who do not own a tv contribute to ITV ,C4,C5 etc ,you can't say the same about the BBC
