| I'm in Billag battle right now and find it preposterous.
It's outrageously expensive and not based on anything other than a revenue stream that someone appears to have "dreamt".
Further, I don't speak and German or Swiss German (yet) so the whopping three channels that would be available to me hold no interest and aren't supported by the tax anyway. | |

Firstly, commiserations in the battle.
When you say that the channels aren't supported by the tax, do you know where the money does go?
If you have a stereo TV bought here, you can get various stuff in English by listening on sound channel B. This tends to be films and US soaps/crime series and can be found on on the Swiss French (TSR 1/2), Swiss German (SF1/2) and Swiss Italian (TSI 1/2)channels.
