Is the BBC our friend?

This may seem a strange question - but is something I have mixed feelings about.

They supply a lot of shows that I really like. (JAM, ISIHAC, Dr Who)
They don't always look after those shows very well. (Where are the archives? Why do seemingly popular things get cancelled?)

They have been very liberal in the past about fan recordings and preservation. (Please donate any "lost shows")
Then they can get tough.

Individuals within the BBC can be very accommodating to fans.
Official policy can seem to contradict this.

Specialist and minority show can be made under government sponsorship.
There can be official interference even though things are very popular (Check what happened to the BBC Cult section on the website which seemed to be closed because it was too popular)

So once again I wonder - do you feel the BBC is our friend?

Love as always
