Hmmm, not even half a million across 3 years! I think you'll find in the grand scheme that is as good as fuck all. What's ofcoms entire budget? I'll go find out.

It's £117 million just for 2013/14 (granted ofcom aren't just running around hunting pirates) but anyway, 495k split 3 ways is 165k. 165k compared with 117m = fuck all.
BUT, I'm not necessarily standing by them here, because you could look at it like, haven't we paid for ofcom once already through taxation? So you kind of pay for a bit of service from them twice if your making an application? Flip side, if it's free to make an application, then of course every cunt (and I do mean cunt) would be constantly applying.
