Of corce but do not need one if your only playing programs by streaming them on ITVX so are not live otherwise no point of using  ITVX.

I think BBC should now be like Netflix now and we should have a choice to support the BBC or not(most people will support it if they want it) and not faused to pay it because your watching Live TV, Live TV should be free to view by now,, Why call it Freewiew or Freely, it not free to view, I pay a TV Licence because of Sky and do not watch any BBC channels on Sky Stream, I don't even watch the new U channels that were UKTV that are part of the BBC too, like U+Gold, U+Drama, you can't see them on the TV Listing on Sky Steam because I never added them, BBC is to political, ITV is better and independent from the Government, ITV News is better.
I don't like how the BBC is run now and its been stranlged by the TV Licance.
The last time I watched the BBC was Doctor Who and Peter Capaldi was the Doctor.

Watching any ITV channel through the ITVX app at the same time as that channel is being broadcast ('live TV') is licenceable activity.  ITV could have chosen not to include that functionality, but actually rather like the BBC receiving Licence Fee funding because they really don't want  another competitor on that scale in the commercial television sector...
