Perhaps you could make it mandatory for a voucher good for 1 year of license to be sold alongside every TV. You can then credit that voucher to your household account.
(If you bought more than one new TV per year, your TV license account would be in perpetual credit. I don't see that as a problem.)

That's just a tax with extra steps of dealing with the voucher. The average replacement timespan is 7-8 years so what's the point of including it in the first year?
