So i don't need a tvl if i'm streaming The Grand Tour into my TV through a FireTV stick?
Grand Tour isn't live, so that's correct. You don't need a TVL as far as I'm aware.
I think the rules on the TVL site are written in a specific manner to trick people into not cancelling.
For instance, I'm currently considering cancelling my TV licence, we literally watch no live TV in our house, only youtube, netflix and other on demand; but the TVL site has the following:
Do I need a TV Licence to watch live TV programmes on an online-only TV channel?
Yes. Online-only TV channels still count as live TV, so you need a TV Licence if you’re watching or recording their programmes.
Does this therefore include Youtubers live streaming, and Twitch live streaming? I've seen some stuff on reddit where people have emailed TVL and received a response that the answer is "no TVL needed for youtube and twitch live streams"... so how is that a distinction to live TV, it can't be because they aren't broadcast over traditional methods because it states "Online-Only TV" which would never have been broadcast.
Anyone got an answer?
