Good point,
but how else would you be able to get a hold of all that content?
Access to BBC's entire archive of recorded music is access to a considerable amount of music history. Although BBC is publicly funded, all that content has been previously exclusive and to have all of it suddenly available means someone is paying for it somewhere.
That, or people are just looking to make money as usual. Either way, it's up to you whether or not you want to give up some of your own money to hear exclusive content regardless of whether or not BBC (or PBS) is publicly funded.
