In Britain, can you get an AppleTV and not have to pay the TV tax? Don’t know why anyone would pay the tax.

The tax only applies to over-the-air broadcasts. You pay it because the British government has a huge bureaucracy including roaming vans checking for TV reception and matching hits against the roll of taxpayers.
