German TV wants money what can I get for it?

I'm in Germany since 2006 and since 2010 with my wife together since 2012 living together. Now with us for a long time I noticed that the German channels are almost all locked, with us. ARD, ZDF, KIKA, etc. Not.

(My wife is german but I do not know who is sending you because she was never interested)

Apart from RTL, I'm not so good with the channels, at RTL, yes runs Formula 1 and Boxing.

Well I have now informed me and you have to pay extra for it?

1. I have Netflix, Amazon Video and Sky Movies / TV Shows and DAZN why should I pay more now?

I do not quite understand and for what then a bit of boxing and Formula 1

When television began in Germany, there were hardly any channels: ARD was the first and then ZDF. These are the so-called "public law". Later there were the regional stations like NDR or HR or Bayern and so on. For all these stations there are - there was - the GEZ. Every household has to register and pay about 17 Euro per month. GEZ does not mean that anymore, but I do not know what it means.

Then quite a few stations - RTL and SAT1 as an example - went on their own. These are financed by advertising revenue and are free for us.

Furthermore, there's now a bunch of pay-TV, where I do not know.

You choose what you want to watch and what is worth to you how much Euro a month.

Ho

Just not RTL, SAT 1 and so the private want money the programs are all blocked for me

Ev

That would be new to me.

Ho

Yes, man never learns

Ev

So I watch RTL and SAT 1 - very rarely, because not voluntarily! But I pay nothing for it. They are free. They do not cost anything!

Ho

I do not understand I do not receive anything and then I informed and I want 70 euro a year per TV.

I have 4 Tv devices then it is 280 euro annually.

I will not pay that, but I do not know it.

Even 70 euro a year for a TV is too expensive for me.

Amazon, Sky Movies / Series and Amazon Video are enough for me.

Ev

Write a mail to RTL and Co. Write each sender an email. And see what they answer!

Ho

Why should I write an email. I just want to know why that is?

I do not need these channels, if they are made available to me for free I look at you from time to time and if the money want then I look at you no longer stop, force to pay can't yes

Ev

Well, we would have clarified that now.

Ho

I still do not know the reason

Ev

You could ask by mail. But you do not want to. I do not know him.

Ho

Ok, maybe I'll do it with the email.

Ev

Go then

In the private satellite and in the cable only the HD variants are blocked because they are sent encrypted, the SD variants are all free receivable. Only DVB-T2 are the private only payable since there's only sent in HD, let pay the HD offer extra, but no one is obliged to pay for it.

Ho

Ok then I have DVB T2

Ed

Then you have as a reception DVBT-2. With DVBT2 you must pay extra for the reception of these programs. I think, in the meantime also with cable connection. These transmitters are currently only free to receive via satellite dish but can sometimes change.

Av

Then you need if received without a receiver Freenet CI + module is plugged into the CI slot on the TV, the module is a year Freenet already included the costs without module 69 euro a year, and a module alone between 60 and 70 euro

If you use a receiver then give me the exact type designation.
