Greek term or phrase: ανταποδοτικά τέλη
Μέχρι πρόσφατα, τα τηλεοπτικά συστήματα χρηματοδοτούνταν κυρίως από τα ανταποδοτικά τέλη ή τη διαφήμιση ή από ένα συνδυασμό τους. Επειδή όμως οι περισσότερες κυβερνήσεις σταδιακά είτε περιορίζουν τις δημόσιες δαπάνες είτε δεν αυξάνουν τα ανταποδοτικά τέλη, τελικά το βάρος της χρηματοδότησης των καναλιών πέφτει στη διαφήμιση. Αυτό το μοντέλο κυρίως αφορά τη δημόσια κρατική ραδιοτηλεόραση, και πάνω σε αυτήν θα στηριχτεί η έρευνα αυτή, συγκρίνοντας όμως πολλές φορές με την περίπτωση των ιδιωτικών καναλιών.

license fee
Explanation:
The term "license fee" has two meanings when applied to television. The first indicates a means of supporting an entire television industry. The second indicates support for the production of specific programs.

When applied in the first sense a license fee is a form of tax used by many countries to support indigenous broadcasting industries. The fee is levied on the television receiver set and paid at regular intervals.
...
The second definition of license fee is applied most often in American television, though its use is growing throughout television production communities elsewhere. It refers to funding that supports independent television production for broadcast networks or other television distributors such as cable companies. In this instance the license fee is the amount paid by the distributor to support production of commissioned programs and series. In exchange for the license fee the distributor receives rights to a set number of broadcasts of commissioned programs. Following those broadcasts the rights to the program revert to the producer. This form of production financing is central to the economic system of commercial television because the distributor's license fee rarely funds the full cost of program production. Producers or studios still must often finance part of their production costs and hope to recoup that amount when a program returns to their control and can be sold into syndication to other distribution venues. Nevertheless, the initial funds, in the form of a license fee, generally enable production to begin.

A television licence is an official licence required in some countries for all owners of a television receiver. Television licensing is common in Europe, as well as some countries in Africa and Southeast Asia, but not used in the Americas, with the exception of the French overseas departments. It is not used to restrict people from owning a television, but as an annual tax to fund public television broadcasts.

The BBC is financed instead by a TV licence paid by households. This guarantees that a wide range of high quality programmes can be made available unrestricted to everyone.

The licence fee also helps support production skills, training, local or minority programmes and other services which might not otherwise be financed by the economics of pay-TV or advertising.

In 1924 the “sealed set” system was replaced with a two tier system; “Class A” stations were to be financed by licence fees (based on the BBC model) and “Class B” stations financed by advertising (commercial broadcasters).
