I seem to have stepped into the wrong conversation here, and I'll get my coat.
My reply was not to you mountain goat, I just happened to post at the same time as you.
I have no idea how to get french TV in switzerland, sorry.
By the way, last year (ie 2005) we paid the TV licence as part of the tax proffesional, which we pay for one site instead of tax d'habitation. This year, ie 2006, less than 4 months since we paid the last licence, we received a seperate bill for the TV licence for 2006.
As to whether or not renters require TV, as a parent I certainly like to be able to stick on a DVD for half an hour whilst dinner is cooking, but I don't always want local TV. We have one gite with just DVD/videos, and the other two with French TV as well. I can't say I've had any comments either way about whether the French TV is worth having.
