Hell yes!
If there's one thing that has helped keep the (terrestrial services sector at least) commercial side 'honest' here in the UK (in terms of quality, cost and content) it's been having a publicly funded BBC service.
You only have to look at commercial TV around the world to see how we in the UK have benefitted
(although the slide towards an ever more 'commercial future' which is apparant on UK satellite/cable TV ought to be warning enough).
I would love to get involved. There is only one problem. I'm in Australia :P I wish the TV channels in Australia would do something like this for their viewers cause at the moment Free TV in Australia and even pay TV i have heard is crap.
Sounds like the intentions are right at least, even if the end results don't amount to anything.

totally agree with you. Even the ABC wears its videotapes blank with replays. Still SBS tries to tone down its ads from the schlock that appears on the fta. It doesn't help when fewer and fewer companies operate more and more of the stations so we end up with crap1, clone crap1, clone2 crap1 etc.
A pity that we don't have an ACCC to do the BBC Trust thing on Australian telly.
And someone ought to cut the American goolies out of Telstra with their banditti like approach at corporate level.
