There have been some stories in the press that in 2011 the BBC will have a 
program where non-UK residents can get BBC television for a few.  No dollar 
amounts were listed, and it was rumored the provider will be Google TV.

Certainly, the BBC seems to need the influx of money since the government is 
cutting the funding but will not raise the license fee.

The review appears to be 100% focused on the domestic audience, which isn't 
really a surprise, but I was interested in seeing if there was any more in 
there regarding how they will serve non-UK (thus non-licence-fee-paying) 
audiences.  I believe there may be an opportunity for them to allow deeper 
access to their programming archives in exchange for a subscription fee.  I'd 
like to see one fee for each radio service only (hopefully a small fee) versus 
a fee for both radio and TV service combined.
