Lucky you. Still, it's not a UK only tax, as you originally claimed.

They're not so lucky. In Spain the public broadcasters are paid from government grants from general taxation, so any tax payer pays towards it whether or not they have a TV and watch it.

In any case, you're right, most of Europe has TV licenses of some kind or other [1]

Thought notably in the UK, you can certainly own a TV without paying TV license [2]
