You only need the television licence (it doesn't apply to radio at all) if you use the computer and internet to view programmes at the same time as they are being broadcast to normal TV. Otherwise the business does not need one. You DO NOT need a licence to use the internet - honestly!

Let's not confuse a PRS licence and a TV licence.

According to TV licensing:

"It makes no difference how you watch TV - whether it's on your laptop, PC or mobile phone or through a digital box, DVD recorder or TV set - if you use any device to receive television programmes as they're being shown on TV, the law requires you to be covered by a TV Licence.

You will not need a TV Licence to view video clips on the internet, as long as what you are viewing is not being shown on TV at the same time as you are viewing it."

It has become very much a minefield in recent years!

Trouble is with so many repeats on so many channels I expect the programme you want to watch is being aired somewhere the same time as you are watching it!
