Remember when Frank first said he was going after Pride. Their people said Pride was not for sale. Basically tried to make it look like they really were not interested but would consider all offers,
Right! This LOI is simply giving notice, they're working OUT the details now. QBID will own Pride. Matter of time, nothing nothing more nothing less.

PRIDEVISION ANNOUNCES EXPANSION AND THE LAUNCH OF A NEW GAY CHANNEL
Subscribers will increase from 20,000 to upwards of 700,000 after April 7th launch
TORONTO, (Canada), March 24, 2005 – Starting April 7th under new ownership, PrideVision will launch a new digital cable channel called OUTtv. On that date, the current premium channel PrideVision will then be known as HARD on PrideVision and will see its hard core gay adult content expanded to 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. OUTtv will not have any hard-core adult programming and will be a 24/7 GLBT (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender) Category 1 lifestyle channel that will be included at no additional cost with other digital channels in bundles or theme packages or separately on an ‘a la carte’ basis. Digital and satellite subscribers should contact their provider for details on exchanging a current channel for, or adding OUTtv to their channel lineup at no extra cost.
“PrideVision needed to divide into two channels due to high demand and the tremendously broad range of programming to serve the GLBT communities better,” says Bill Craig, the new President of both OUTtv and HARD on PrideVision. “Because OUTtv will have dramatically increased reach through package distribution going from 20,000 subscribers to upwards of 700,000 over the next few months, it will substantially increase relevant programming for the GLBT community currently not available on any other mainstream channel.
Starting April 7th under new ownership, PrideVision will launch a new digital cable channel called OUTtv.
Who could be the new owner...........
Look at the facts kids. A NEW OWNER will be taking over OUTtv April 7th and Pride will turn into HARD which will be a porn channel. Now who could be buying the OUTtv 86% of Pride and who could be running HARD 24% of Pride? Could it be that QTN has bought 86% of Pride leaving Pride's CEO with 24% and a channel called HARD?
Gee this is to hard to figure out..........

No, if you go back into old Pride info there is no question about it. The April 7th ownership deal was released and detailed earlier than anything related to Q. It has nothing to do with us.
Thats not a bad thing, its just unrelated. We are already working with the new ownership of Pride that becomes official 4/7 so its all good.

-------------------------------------------------
George I read the whole PR, but I came away with a much more positive outlook.
Bill Craig is broke--sooooo, he becomes the new president for a private consortium INCLUDING Canadian gay businesses.....
Wonder just who else (nonCanadian gay businesses) was included in that buyer group?
Whiz, thank you, thank you for the new thread!

i dont see Q buying pride outright. new owners don't sell out without a huge mark up in price. some sort of merger is more likely. Q has a very good program line up but no real network to broadcast it on yet, 1 cable company does not a big network make. but teaming with an established network even if in another country will help open doors here. i am shocked that todays news didn't bring 50% at least.

OUTtv: So this is where the Q programming is suppose to be going according to the press release, letter of intent.
So after April 07th the "Q" programming will be available to everyone who can get OUTtv (new format for Pridevision.
"I feel this is the first step in a long relationship between the two networks," said Olsen. "We have a great interest in working with OUTtv and moving Q Television forward with this venture.

GO QBID!!!!!!
Subscribers will increase from 20,000 to upwards of 700,000 after April 7th launch AND we will be seen by all these people. NOW THATS BIG!!!!!
I have always said since the announcement on March 18th that "Q" will own Pridevision and become "QPride" and I stand by that. I also said that we would get a great PR on March 18th and we did. Now just believe and you will see.

Ricardo According to some of the "pros" who have posted here lately, you are a novice investor if you buy a stock and then think it will succeed. The "pro" investors buy a stock and then tell everyone it will tank and die. It's called being "realistic" (and other crap). Read back a few pages on the old thread and see what I mean. And remember the names because they also will be the first to say "I told you so" when QBID hits a homerun. Too bad we will have to listen to their bullsh*t twice . . . once is more than enough.

News from the future, year 2010.
The Palm Springs Police force has just broken into the offices of Q Television Network using a search warrant (brought about by angry family members of QBID shareholders as the shareholders all reside in mental institutions for spending the last 5 years checking for QBID Pr's on a 24/7 basis, the elusive BIG PR, the Holy Grail of PRs, that would supposedly improve their lifes ten-fold).
The police could only find a few recordings of QLive that played over continously on an offshore web-site and was never actually seen on TV. Also found on the wall was a picture of George Michael and George W. Bush holding hands as they both found out that they have something in common.
As for Frank Olsen, he is the richest man in the world living on the Cook Islands for tax protection. His favorite quote is "Thank God for QBID shareholders continously hyping my company so I could sell billions of shares for me and my friends". It was reported he gave $10 million to AIDS research.
William Shatner, asked to comment on the situation stated "I have experienced this phenomena before, could it be that today's Qbidians are yesterday's Trekkies?"
GOOOO QQQQQ, may you live long and prosper! May the PR's be with you! Just hurry up, will ya

well you dont know what the purchase price is or will be if they strike a deal. Maybe there is a substantial proffit in there for Bill.
he has to come up with 1.4 million for his ex. that doesnt mean the guy is going to hand it over for that price. the fact of the matter is that he would be a fool to hand it over that cheap, ad he has 2 and a half million into it.
my best guess is that he would walk away with at least a million after paying off the ex and still have a postition with Q.
this is just my opinion and nothing to back it.
done buy on these statements.

in time we will all be happy with this stock.
i think they have shown great progress to date.
I still feel we are extremely undervalued.
but that is good for us for now as we are able to accumulate more shares.
one day soon investors will come to the Q and realise her true value and pay for oportunity to ride this to even new higher levels then we can imagine.
I still feel that longs will be rewarded and i will be on the list of longs for a long time.
we will see this company do great things over and over again on the way up. we will also see many many people come here and tell us we are making mistakes here.
the beatiful thing is that the higher it goes the harder it will be for the nay sayers to convince us that we have made a bad decision.

Christopher Curtis, PlanetOut Network Thursday, March 31, 2005 / 05:25 PM
Palm Springs-based Q Television Network is in talks to purchase Canada's PrideVision, the world's first LGBT television network.
On Thursday the two companies announced they signed a letter of intent to consider joint programming.
Q Television Network's president and CEO, Frank Olsen, said, "I feel this is the first step in a long relationship between the two networks."
"This also shows how committed Q Television and its executives are at making LGBT televisions [sic] succeed for the queer communities," Olsen added in a press release.
Meanwhile, PrideVision will begin offering pornographic programming around the clock on April 7 while spinning off its lifestyle programming to a different channel, which will be named OUTtv.
PrideVision CEO Bill Craig said, "A relationship with Q Television Network could provide OUTtv with the opportunity to share gay programming throughout the world."
Thursday's news about the joint programming comes after a March 18 announcement that Q Television made an offer to purchase PrideVision.
At the time of the announcement, Olsen said, "By acquiring PrideVision, Q would be able to cut its expenses down on all of its programming costs."
"We will have some sort of ownership, whether it's a partnership or something else," Ronnie Welch, a spokesperson for Q Television, told the PlanetOut Network. "We are exploring our options."
Welch added that Q Television wanted to distance itself from the pornography offered on PrideVision. "We're not looking to put hard-core sex in Q," she said.
Welch would not reveal further information about terms of the deal.
Currently the content of Q Television consists of purchased programs and original content, which is filmed in Fort Worth, Texas. Q Television is currently available in half a dozen U.S. markets

hi all. new to the board, been an invester in qbid since about this time last year, have built up a nice war chest, bought, sold, more than a few times. started with my leftovers from AFRT,. lost a bundle with that pos. took my whopping 743$ and put into qbid way back when. worth about 10 g`s now so it`s all good. been reading this board for close to a year now. i guess i would be considered a long!. i have alot of confidence in this stock the recent pr`s should have put this stock well into penny land but it has`nt happened (YET) and i belive it will be THE play of 2005 but thats just my opinion. i have real time level 2`s and have been watching the mm`s manipulate this for many weeks. it cannot last forever.i am holding my shares no matter what 0001 or 10 cents witch ever comes first i am in this for the long haul.i will pop in from time to time and let you know what i think if thats alright with you. it`s my money to lose and no one is going to convince me otherwise. i like this stock thats why i held it so long.sometimes this board gets a little nasty,but thats understandable, we all get a little frazzeled at times but the bottom line is if you cant afford to lose your investment then dont buy such high risk stocks,we all want to make money but there are no guaranties,just four choices. buy,sell,hold or dont invest and they are yours alone to make. so dont cry if you lose ,dont bragg if you win. just play another hand or walk away from the table.as for me,just deal me in! GLTA and thanks for reading this post.

I've got a pretty good hand myself & I'm in no danger of folding either. If we go down I buy. If we go up I hold or press my bet. Unless of course we go way up! Then I'll start letting a little go at a time!

Big Fat Harry BLOG Big Fat Harry BLG
------------------------------------------------- Tuesday, March 29, 2005 - Well, the Palm Springs experience was extraordinary in many ways. Not for the city so much, but for the endless frolic that is Q Television. During one live TV interview with (in)famous circuit promoter Jeffrey Sanker, I yapped about his history at Studio 54 in the early days. The show’s other host—who’s an offbeat comic—asked Jeffrey if Easter weekend for the White Party was in celebration of Jesus. Sanker pointed out he’s Jewish and simply picked a popular holiday weekend for his gregarious gatherings. Co-host responded, “Well, your people killed our Lord, Jesus!” Long pause. You could hear a mosquito buzzing a mile away. Jeffrey Sanker simply gulped, then blinked. Then blinked, gulped, gulped, and blinked some more. I jumped in with the classic WASP cocktail party rescue of “what he really intended to say was obviously….”
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuesday, March 22, 2005 - Day two in Palm Springs with Q Televison Network. We're covering the annual gay bacchanalia called the Dinah shore Golf Classic (lesbians) and the infamous White Party (gay men). Q, which is based in Palm Springs, California, has built a massive state-of-the-art set inside an open-air, cylindrical Mexican restaurant, right downtown. Multiple crews have been brought in from LA to put together this massive TV production which has several live satellite trucks stationed around town.
Today I went live from Century Palm Springs, a clothing-optional resort in Warm Sands area of town. Imagine being on camera with a nervous guest while naked European (guess how I figured that out?) boys tanned themselves nakedly from both corners of your eyes. I was amazed by my own discipline, muzzling the easy remarks that begged release. Unlike radio with requires limited equipment to pull off, TV means at least 6 people with you at all times, a microwave truck, and endless cell-phoning. After the sun went down, I travelled back to the set and co-anchored several segments on their afternoon show called On Q Live. Being a bit of a techie, I also had to check out the 22 million dollar satellite truck--an outsized 18-wheeler with multiple interior high-tech control rooms. It seriously looked like NASA, but better. Banks and banks of monitors, staffs of crew people pushing endless rows of blinking buttons, and still another crew wearing headsets and clicking timers.
Q Television Network has beaten all the other gay “channels” out of the gate. They're even publicly traded on Wall Street (QBID). This massive undertaking is but one of many that are planned. And On Q Live is a daily show from 6:30-9:30 p,m. So far, the network’s on in Chicago, San Francisco, and Boston. Seattle’s next and so is Direct TV.
I’m part of the show every day this week, starting sometime around 4:30 pm (PT). This link will take you a...

I can't believe this! Two great PR's this week and this POS stock is still going down!! I've had enough of this. It's obvious the MM's don't like us, and Frank still has not came through on many promises. There is only so much an investor is willing to take before they fold. I got out of QBID this morning. There are plenty of other stocks to be played that actually have potential. I might get back in when we see .001's again.

Firestone is Gearing Up For Something: Remember Firestone is the major programming component of Qtelevision
April 01, 2005 09:05 AM US Pacific Timezone
Intelsat Chosen by Firestone Communications to Expand Cable Programming Distribution
LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 1, 2005--Intelsat announced today that Firestone Communications has expanded its use of the Intelsat Americas(TM) fleet for distribution of cable programming in North America. The long-term contract, to utilize a full transponder on IA-13, will give Firestone Communications and its cable programming customers access to the satellite's prime cable arc location at 121(degree) W, and connectivity to over 3,000 digital cable head-ends in the United States.
Firestone Communications is a rapidly growing media and communications company offering a new, fully-digital, state-of-the-art network operations facility for programmers and producers around the world. Accessing the IA-13 satellite allows Firestone Communications to leverage the prime cable distribution neighborhood on the satellite and significantly expand its customers' viewing audiences.
"As we've grown our business, Intelsat's flexibility has provided us with more bandwidth within its cable programmer community, enabling us to better accommodate our customers' needs," said Michael G. Fletcher, President of Firestone Communications. "Intelsat now provides us with a full transponder's capacity and power allowing us to cost-effectively offer a full multiplex of cable channels."
Ramu Potarazu, COO of Intelsat, stated, "Intelsat is actively committed to growing our video distribution community in the cable arc where IA-13 is located. Customers such as Firestone Communications help us achieve that growth as new cable channels are added to its customer lineup. Emerging cable programmers find immediate value in the cost-effective, turnkey program distribution services provided by Firestone Communications and Intelsat, which effectively lower market entry barriers and get channels up and running quickly."

a transponder from what i can remember carries 32 channels.
so they are capable of carrying 32 network channels now.
I wonder how many they currently have.
maybe they are planning room for Franks other channels that he has talked about, like the abouriginal channel that he spoke of last year.
nice to see. maybe Frank will announce something on the heals of this pr.

Rumour for sure.
if we had Directv and it wasnt rumour we would not be sitting under a penny now.
nice rumour though and i hope it has some legs to be reality.
in time we will be there, I think anyway.
Directv likes to be the leader, and i think that we are going to be the leading GLBT channel. its only a matter of time and we will be there and on echostar.

This is total speculation riddled with a few known facts but... it is April 1 lol
Firestones new PR and the obvious arrangement of some sort between us and them begs the question of what is our piece of their PIE in the SKY?
I believe Ulluminati said CEO of Firestone was at PS event. Taking that as truth. He very much could have been there as a golf and "fun in the sun" trip using the time for an expensed vacation and some pressing of the flesh. Big money at those golf events and the locale didnt hurt that issue either. Or he was there because he has a more than "its a new account" interest in Qs success and/or could have been evaluating possible partner/clients to display in his newly acquired sat deal. This didnt happen over night, it was in the works while he was in Palms Springs. Thats a guess but time for something like that to be discussed, planned, and signed isnt noirmally 48 hours. And even if he wasnt there for that purpose I would think Frank would have been resourceful enough to have gotten wind of the sat deal in chats over the weekend there and would have used that as a door to get a foot in to the future.
As far as Horizon in the riddle goes... maybe its capitalization was more for emphasis or just a red herring? George enjoys the this and could be just playing. Or horizon normally brings about the thoughts of to come soon and this morning we get the Firestone pr.
If you dont know, George, is a poster at IHUB who appears off and on with cryptic riddles to entertain and amuse. He has an uncanny ability to show up prior to good news and spout of something ridiculous and disappear. Then after something happens that can be possibly read back into his riddle he shows up comments and leaves.
His post was something to the effect of:
PIE in the SKY in the HORIZON
IHUB is down so I cant 100% verify on the wording, but someone else probably can or can get it later.
Its more fun than anything substantial but its a hell of a lot more fun than the pages of "you are a basher!" vs "oh bite me you daytraders are hurting us faithful ones". lol
I want retire soon, Q needs to get their deals done!

Just like a private business does. They still have to maintain finacial records for the IRS. They don,t care what you are. Also never assume that just because its a pink it does not file or be required to file. A Pink sheet can file for reporting status. Once they do they are required to file. If not they can be shut down like any other company. Just look at cmkx. Thats were they got into trouble with the SEC.

2)Q Television Network and PrideVision Sign a Letter of Intent PALM SPRINGS, Calif.
CWR & Partners, LLP Ronnie Welch, 508-222-4802 Ronnie@cwrpartners.com
Q Television Network's, (Pink Sheets: QBID) President and CEO, Frank Olsen and Bill Craig, CEO of Canadian OUTtv D.B.A. PrideVision announced today that they have signed a Letter of Intent to explore opportunities by which the two companies may take advantage of joint programming initiatives and a potential equity investment in the Canadian Television service.
The Parties have identified a number of areas of interest, including the telecast of Canadian produced live and acquired programming in the U. S. as well as branding and marketing opportunities for the respective television services.
Mr. Craig, said, "A relationship with Q Television Network could provide OUTtv with the opportunity to share gay programming throughout the world."
"I feel this is the first step in a long relationship between the two networks," said Olsen. "We have a great interest in working with OUTtv and moving Q Television forward with this venture. This also shows how committed Q Television and its executives are at making GLBT televisions succeed for the queer communities."

nice to see everyone getting along so well tonight, now what do we all think of our stocks performance today? market makers played their usual games although they did let it run up in the last ten minutes or so, volume was a little light but we held our ground.slow and steady gains ok for now but we need them to let it run. what are your thoughts for next week?

Australian Television History Article 2/2005
Current Conditions
What is glaringly obvious in the Australian television landscape of today is the complete lack of any regular and open discussion of lesbian and gay issues and lives; and almost no dramatization of same. Recent soaps featuring gays and lesbians in prominent roles were poorly promoted at home and failed to "sell" overseas. There is a total absence of a Queer as Folk or a Tales of the City made in Australia about queer contemporary or past Australian culture
Looks like a ripe market for the "Q" Posted by RNINALVNG on :

"Take down the float so the day traders are forced out. They want investors in this stock."
Can they hurry up with this already? Lets hear some buyback news! We would be over a penny right now......
Posted by Penny-Trader on :
but andrew we are investors we are in it for the long haul. I dont care how we get there be it a very very long gradual gain or several spikes. I realise that my money is tied in for a long hold on this one. that is what it means to be an investor as opposed to being a trader.
I got in this originally thinking that it was going to hit a buck in several months. that was last april. I have come a long way with my views on this stock and realise the potential of it and dont mind waiting a couple of years to hit 50 cents. after all at that rate i would make 850 grand. that would take me 12 years at my normal job. so ya a couple years to make that kinda coin is good in my eyes.

I ask my question because one we are spending big money on this road show and other projects that we don't have veiwers to veiw yet; but they have the money to spend on it. Also the Pride deal. Where are we getting all of this money from? They tell us from some investor group. Couldn't this just be a lie and they are loading more shares as quick as you are buying them? I am not a basher. I own over a million shares. I am just wondering.... Any thoughts?

I asked Richard about this awhile ago. His answer was that Q Television is getting sufficient funding from an elite group of private investors that are dedicated to the success of the network. I'm assuming they are members of the LGBT community? Could it be a lie? I really don't know. I highly doubt it though. I think some people see this network as a good cause and are willing to invest a substantial amount with the hopes that it will succeed.

Posted by buckwheatbob on :
No pun to put forth here BT, but many of those articles you are posting short quotes from, had detail with regards to those quotes. The detail, when read, actually makes things sound opposite as to what they sound in you quote of fact. I am not intending to stir the pot here, but I think if fact such as that is going to be posted, the link to the actual article should also be included to get the full picture. Myself and Rod from this group, who is a well respected poster, know each other well and because of some certain things we do with our jobs, all fact is required and not just partial. I will let Rod comment on that one as well. Because the other side only uses partial fact such as you posted, people like Rod and myself, win at what we do.

Agreed. Everyone should look into it and base their decision on what they find and not what someone posts.
Goes for both directions.

Oh crap. I really wish I had read all of this before I had spent 8k on QBID. I feel like such and illiterate, uneducated, scam victim. Wheres my mommy?
Oh wait, nevermind. What I meant to say was:
Thank you for your time and energy posting that information and making it available for current and future long term qbid holders. It is actually a very good starting point for people to use as a DD checklist. I have read and seen most of the original articles and references as well as I am aware that I don't care what the name of the company is on the street sign they all have possible misleading statements and broken promises. Things dont always work out the way they are expected to and sometimes CEOs speak a little too soon.
I should probably sell all my Time Warner stock too since I remember Steve Case telling me that AOL would be free by now as a service and 100% advertisement/other revenue based. That ass, he lied to me!
Hopefully I can buy some more QBID Monday am, before it goes back up again.

Christopher Curtis, PlanetOut Network Thursday, March 31, 2005 / 05:25 PM
Palm Springs-based Q Television Network is in talks to purchase Canada's PrideVision, the world's first LGBT television network.
On Thursday the two companies announced they signed a letter of intent to consider joint programming.
Q Television Network's presi dent and CEO, Frank Olsen, said, "I feel this is the first step in a long relationship between the two networks."
"This also shows how committed Q Television and its executives are at making LGBT televisions [sic] succeed for the queer communities," Olsen added in a press release.
Meanwhile, PrideVision will begin offering pornographic programming around the clock on April 7 while spinning off its lifestyle programming to a different channel, which will be named OUTtv.
PrideVision CEO Bill Craig said, "A relationship with Q Television Network could provide OUTtv with the opportunity to share gay programming throughout the world."
Thursday's news about the joint programming comes after a March 18 announcement that Q Television made an offer to purchase PrideVision.
At the time of the announcement, Olsen said, "By acquiring PrideVision, Q would be able to cut its expenses down on all of its programming costs."
"We will have some sort of ownership, whether it's a partnership or something else," Ronnie Welch, a spokesperson for Q Television, told the PlanetOut Network. "We are exploring our options."
Welch added that Q Television wanted to distance itself from the pornography offered on PrideVision. "We're not looking to put hard-core sex in Q," she said.
Welch would not reveal further information about terms of the deal.
Currently the content of Q Television consists of purchased programs and original content, which is filmed in Fort Worth, Texas. Q Television is currently available in half a dozen U.S. markets

Bill!
There's a huge difference between QBID & CMKX. QBID is a real company with a verifiable product that's much more visable even without filing. I won't bash CMKX but I would never put money on that company.
QBID will make shareholders wealthy! No one can say that about CMKX!

Bill1352 I agree that Frank needs to buy back shares and maybe 1 to 2 billion of the float. I would love to see this get to even .50 or .60 and I would be happy with that. I am long and really believe that this will work out, there are many great things happening for them now and it seems like things are coming together. My only concern is that there are so many shares out there and the market cap. You add up and do all the math, it looks like .10 is going to be price it will go to. I really want it to go up, but a buddy of mine who has been investing in stocks for 9 years now was doing all the calculations and said it looked like .10 would be about the high. I asked if even having Australia and Canada and also parts of Europe having the Q would make it go higher, he said it doesn't matter if these other places also have the Q airing, it would still be about .10 He mentioned that there are so many shares that it is impossible for this to get to 1.00 and more. I am hoping he is wrong, time will tell.

Can you please let me know where Q Television is in regard to the building of a Palm Springs studio? This information was in a 9/16/2004 press release and was supposed to be completed January 2005.
They do request “real names” etc. so no need for you to apply!
• I owned 17-gay bars, a hotel, and was a big part in the creation of Showtime.
You’re correct here. He had no part in the creation of Showtime. It was The Movie Channel!
“Olsen, an entrepreneur with a significant background in broadcast, was instrumental in the launch of The Movie Channel prior to its acquisition by Showtime. A pioneer in the development of new radio broadcast formats throughout his 40-year career, Olsen helped create African American radio and started the first gay radio stations.”

Highlights of Corporate Seminar
The seminar held in Texas was deemed a great success by all that attended. The open forum meetings were divided into many topics and everyone from senior management, sales, network, talent and support was there. The goal of the 36 hour conference was to address the current climate of the company, discuss future goals and repair past mistakes.
Internal Communication - Create a new internal structure to better communicate with senior, middle management and support staff. The company's main focus will entail enhancing better software management solutions.
Meet & Greet - Senior management, sales and support met and interacted with Q Television's talent. They discussed ways to work together in achieving content success as well as business appreciation.
Future Planning
1. Importance of carriage - Continue discussions with national carriers and to aggressively target certain demographics important to the company's business model. Continue to build the necessary team to ensure carrier agreements. 2. Sponsoring Events - From the plethora of sponsored events, choosing and implementing a strategic plan to support and sponsor as many relevant events in the G/L community. 3. Advertisers and or Sponsors - Stronger sales initiatives in regards to advertisers. This will be done by enhancing the current sales force and equipping them with the proper resources to close deals.

Gays More Discerning Than Straights On What TV We Watch by Ed Welch 365Gay.com Los Angeles Bureau
Posted: April 4, 2005 2:03 pm ET
(Los Angeles, California) A new national study of what we watch and read shows that the media consumption habits of gay, lesbian and bisexual adults differ from those of their heterosexual counterparts.
For example, GLB adults (76%) frequently or occasionally watch basic cable, compared with two-thirds (67%) of heterosexual adults.
Similarly, six in 10 (62%) GLB respondents report they frequently or occasionally watch specialty cable networks (compared with 56% of heterosexuals) and 45 percent report they frequently or occasionally watch premium (pay) cable networks (compared with 37% of heterosexuals).
These are a few highlights of a nationwide survey of 2,630 U.S. adults, of whom 177 self-identified as gay, lesbian or bisexual. The survey was conducted online between March 8 and 14, 2005 by Harris Interactive, the market research and consulting firm, in conjunction with Witeck-Combs Communications which specializes in marketing to gays.
The online survey also highlights preferences toward reading alternative newspapers among GLB and heterosexual adults. While one-half of GLB respondents (49%) state they frequently or occasionally read the alternative press, one-quarter (27%) of heterosexual adults say they do. Likewise, three in 10 (31%) GLB respondents say they frequently or occasionally listen to independent and alternative radio stations, compared with one-quarter (25%) of non-gay respondents.
“Gays, lesbians and bisexuals are as avid as ever about connecting to television programming and publications that are directly relevant to their lives, needs and tastes,” said Bob Witeck, CEO of Witeck-Combs Communications.
“This research tells us they are looking beyond traditional mass media for news and entertainment trends that intrigue them and, more importantly, that also include them.”
Expanding on what previous Harris Interactive studies have shown about GLB Internet use, this survey indicates that two-thirds (66%) of GLB adults frequently or occasionally visit mainstream online channels (compared with 57% of heterosexual adults).
Gays also read web logs (or “blogs”) more often than their non-gay counterparts (27% of GLB adults versus 18% of heterosexual adults frequently or occasionally seek out blogger websites). Furthermore, GLB respondents are more likely to read specialty or niche magazines than are heterosexual adults (15% GLB versus 4% heterosexuals frequently or occasionally read them). This difference is particularly apparent with travel (31% vs. 19%), the arts (16% vs. 6%) and entertainment (40% vs. 28%) publications.
However, the study also found there is virtually no distinction between gay and non-gay viewing habits related to conventional broadcast television channels. More than eight in 10 gay and non-gay adults alike say they frequently or occasionally watch national and local broadcast channels.
Gays, lesbians and bisexuals are as avid as ever about connecting to television programming and publications that are directly relevant to their lives, needs and tastes,” said Bob Witeck, CEO of Witeck-Combs Communications.

4/4/2005 - Cable Convention
From Rene Schenk
Greetings from San Francisco!! To date, the convention has been a huge success. We have met with every cable and satellite provider in attendance and their response has been that Q's programming is superior. Our executive suite has been the perfect meeting place to discuss carrier options with high level executives from various carrier companies. We will update the shareholders fully when the convention ends.
Posted by FatherOfTwo on :
This is great.... If Carrier A sees Carrier B talking to the Qbid Team... maybe there will be a little peer pressure to get them first?!? This is a great move on Franks part to have a second booth! One to pass out the freebies and another to hold discussions and build carrier relationships!

just a quick note. OutTv is delayed now till April 12th.
this could be the result of many things. as simple as its just a delay
or it could be the new management looking to change the schedualed line up of programming, a name change of the channel. delays in the deal between Frank and Bill.
just caught up on the posts today...whiz i am in no way comparing Q to cmkx as honest doing something companies...lol as i said i believe Q will make it, cmkx might make jail time & thats about it but cmkx is in trouble (finally i might add) because once a company has 500 shareholders they must report on 10Q's i'm hoping someone at Q is paying attention or the t/a is. Q has enough on its plate getting cable contracts to have an all of a sudden awakening to being over the 500 limit & thus forcing them to report in a very short period of time as in 20 days.

PALM SPRINGS, Calif., Apr 05, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Q Television Network (Pink Sheets: QBID) announced today that they have inked an agreement with Oxygen to publicize the network to national audiences.
Starting April 14, 2005, Q Television Network will air nationally for half an hour per day via the Oxygen Network.
"We are very pleased to have made this agreement to promote Q through Oxygen," said Frank Olsen, President and CEO of Q Television Network. "The number of inquiries from potential subscribers to national carriers has been staggering, and Q Television feels strongly that by using Oxygen to promote Q's programming we will strengthen our relationship with national carriers and their audiences."
About Oxygen:
Oxygen Media is a 24-hour cable television network that puts a fresh spin on television for women. Oxygen is now available in over 53 million homes (Nielsen).

I would like to see this up over half a penny though we have spent way too much time in this pps range now concidering all the leaps and bounds that this company has made.
They need to start reporting though. I believe we have more then 500 share holders in this company. they need to get that taken care of before that causes them a big financial problem.

QBID might get to penny land within the next month too! I strongly believe that both of these stocks will move up very nicely. Check it out, send me a PM and let me know your thoughts. I'd be glad to share any info if you're interested. It's the least I can do.
Posted by Penny-Trader on :
man this board is slow today.
Where is everyone here? lets get some discussion going here.
A lot has happened today in my opinion.
Here! anounced a nationwide carriage with 40 million house holds being about to recieve thier programming.
this is the deal that we would have liked Q to have.
we still outshine the Here! station as they have no live programing or original programming.
now with that said, they now have the cash generation from national carriage, that they could either start producing this original programming, or they could buyit from us.
with this deal on the table, we may end up being more of a production comany and sell our programming to the big broadcasters for syndication. which is still not a bad deal as long as we generate dollars and lots of them.
Our price did not soar today with our pr but the good thing is that it is not plummeting to the basement either.
Rod
Posted by permanentjaun on :
Be careful PT. The comcast cox deal with Here! is still an on demand deal. I have no doubt that if Q decided to go on demand they would have every major carrier already signed. Bandwidth is a huge reason why we're not signed yet. Todays PR with Oxygen is just a next step to prove to carriers there is a demand for our network and that bandwidth shouldn't be hindering us.

I agree. QBID doesn't have anything to justify itself being over a penny. The price that is it currently at is correct. They have nothing major to throw them over a penny. NSS not happening with this stock. Not enough solid news and a lack of interest at this time is what is keeping QBID at these levels. A newtork deal or carrier news is the only way to get QBID over a penny. Until then this will not more.

MTV’s long-awaited gay channel joins plenty of other channels & programs on cable & network TV
By BRIAN MOYLAN Friday, April 01, 2005
THERE WAS ONLY one new gay character on mid-season replacement shows in recent weeks: Chris Didion, the gay private investigator so wonderfully played by Rick Worthy on ABC’s “Eyes” (Wednesdays at 10 p.m.).
But the big news is on cable. Last fall, LOGO projected that the gay digital cable channel started by MTV Networks would be launched on Valentine’s Day. In January, the channel pushed the debut back to June 30, acknowledging that it wasn’t ready for prime time and its backers wanted to make sure it could premiere strong. New York-based LOGO is now promising that it’s going to stick with the new date. LOGO has signed deals with cable carriers RCN (Starpower), Adelphia, and Time Warner.
“This is showing progress,” says Stephen Tropiano, author of “The Prime Time Closet: A History of Gays and Lesbians on TV” and a professor affiliated with Ithaca College. “In this case, being seen as a demographic is a good thing … There are red states and blue states, and the idea of a network that goes throughout the entire country — it goes to states of both colors. I think that says a lot about this idea of recognition.”
Tropiano says shows such as Showtime’s “Queer as Folk” and “The L Word” have paved the way for LOGO’s original programming. “They have proven that there is an audience for those shows, and they are quality shows that could be on commercial TV,” he says. “That’s been proven. People will watch things that are meant for a gay and lesbian audience.”
Damon Romine, entertainment media director for the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, said a gay cable channel could bolster the number of representations on network television. “When the networks see there is a market for this and there is a place for this, and see our numbers and our purchasing power, the advertisers will respond to that,” he said, “and networks will represent us more.”
Romine, who joined GLAAD in March, also said that the number of representations of gay people on scripted prime-time network television continues to experience a lull lately — the lowest number since GLAAD started tracking such trends in 1996. He also said that he’s seen some gay characters on pilot television shows but it’s too soon to say whether that will translate into more gay characters on network television this fall.
Currently, there are only six gay characters on five prime-time, scripted network television shows: Will and Jack on NBC’s “Will & Grace,” George on UPN’s “Kevin Hill,” Kerry on NBC’s “ER,” Chris on “Eyes,” the ABC show that debuts this week, and Adam on UPN’s “Half & Half.”
When LOGO debuts, it is scheduled to air “Noah’s Arc,” a drama series about black gay men by Patrik-Ian Polk, writer/director of the film “PUNKS,” which addressed a similar topic but did not enjoy a wide distribution. Some viewers might have already caught episodes of “Noah’s Arc” at Black Pride events across the nation last year. It also is available on DVD, but Polk said last year that it was proving difficult to get television executives interested in airing it.
Also on the LOGO schedule: “My Fabulous Gay Wedding,” hosted by gay comedian Scott Thompson and wedding planner Fern Cohen. They follow around couples making preparations to tie the knot. Also planned: “Cruise,” a series by the makers of MTV’s “Real World” that follows travelers on a gay cruise ship. (No discussion about how much they’re showing, however.)
LOGO also plans to air shows about gay rugby teams, the gay rodeo and gay fraternities and sororities. In addition, it has penned deals to show a number of high-profile movies with gay content, including “A Home at the End of the World,” “Party Monster,” “Far from Heaven,” “Billy Elliot,” and “Being John Malkovich.”
Here! (formerly known as here! TV) is already available as a pay-per-view service on satellite providers DirecTV and DISH Network and on an on-demand service for RCN, Adelphia and Time- Warner digital cable. In April, here! Is scheduled to debut the movie “Tides of War,” starring Adrian Paul as a gay naval officer whose submarine enters North Korean waters and is attacked. If that isn’t enough drama, he’s also mourning the loss of his partner. The movie costars Mathew St. Patrick, who portrays Keith on “Six Feet Under.”
On a Monday night in early June, St. Patrick and the rest of the “Six Feet Under” cast will be back on HBO for the show’s fifth and final season. Yes, it is slated to air on Mondays. In what seems to be an attempt by HBO to wield its power beyond Sunday nights — and possibly avoid the deadly clutches of those “Desperate Housewives,” who have conquered that evening on ABC — the series is scheduled to air its final 12 episodes on Mondays at 9 p.m.
It’s fifth and final season, Showtime’s “Queer As Folk” returns on Sunday, May 22, at 10 p.m. The dreamiest addition to this gay drama has got to be Ryan Scott Greene, who plays Brandon, a hot new character who is going to give Brian (Gale Harold) a run for his money in the sexy and slutty department.
Showtime is also going to be showing lots more sex and drugs on Saturday, April 16, at 8 p.m. “Reefer Madness” is a film adaptation of the musical version of the 1930s propaganda film that shows how bad drugs really are. Thanks to gay composer Dan Studney, there are 16 musical numbers in this campy spoof, which costars actor Alan Cumming.
In May, Rosie O’Donnell is scheduled to make her debut in a television movie, alongside Andie MacDowell. In “Riding the Bus with My Sister,” a New York fashion photographer, Rachel, (MacDowell) has to care for her developmentally-disabled sister, Beth, (O’Donnell) after their father dies. What Rachel originally thought was an inconvenience becomes a means of spiritual reawakening after she meets the people Beth has befriended while riding around on city buses all day. CBS will air the Hallmark Hall of Fame production on Sunday, May 1, at 8 p.m.
Expect a gay makeover for Agatha Christie sleuth Miss Marple. In four new, two-part episodes for PBS’s “Mystery!” series, Marple isn’t going to become a lesbian, but she’s investigating some. The episode, “A Murder is Announced,” which starts on May 5, shows an implied relationship between two women that is in the original work by Christie. But in “A Body in the Library,” which begins on June 5, the screenwriter has created a relationship between two women.
A representative from the show says the Christie story contained a relationship between a man and a woman from separate social classes. That sort of relationship isn’t as shocking today as it was when originally written, so it was changed to reflect a lesbian relationship.
In June, “P.O.V.,” PBS’s documentary series, kicks off its next season with “The Education of Shelby Knox.” Slated to air on Tuesday, June 21, at 10 p.m., the film, which made a splash at Sundance, looks at Knox, a teen in Lubbock, Texas, who pushes for sex education instead of an abstinence-only curriculum. Her struggle quickly expands to include lobbying for a gay-straight alliance at her high school.
While gay viewers wait for an all-gay network, let us not forget about the unofficial gay network, Bravo. June marks the return of “Blow Off,” a reality series about a Beverly Hills hair salon that includes several openly gay stylists (shock!). In July or August, look for the premiere of two projects from Kathy Griffin in a six-episode, unscripted show, “Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D List,” as well as another one-woman show, “Kathy Griffin is … not Nicole Kidman.” You had to tell us.

That's exactly right, firefly. I don't know why people are so concerned about LOGO. If they are successful, that will increase the demand for Q Television (think XM and Sirius radio!) If LOGO is a failure, Q will learn from their mistakes. Sounds like a win-win situation to me. I see the glass being filled.

Keep in mind also that we could all go to visit Brazil where the cost of living is 60-75% less than here in the states. We could do a lot of partying there. Ricardo
Actually depending on the next 18 months and how they go with a few issues, Q being only a portion, we are looking at Spain.
If by some fortunate reason it sees something that high we are moving to West Indies and I will set up to work remote part time. Q could definitely make the difference between stateside, Spain, or islands though.
The potential is there, I dont think Frank has the ability to do the execution needed though. Not a slap at Frank by any means because I do think he has the ability to surround himself with people that can execute his ideas and dreams. Thats really all any business needs from the leader anyway. And from what I am seeing he is stacking his house in our favor brick by brick.

Hmmmmmmm, QTN, LOGO, Here!, Pride all making great strides in 2005.
Look at all of the CSI shows--new and re-runs, home decorating channels, makeovers and reality programing, sports channels, movie channels, religious channels, music channels, news channels.........
There is plenty of room for several gay networks.
Fly you are right--great publicity for one and for all of these networks.
And QBID has the programing.
Remember the tortise and the hare race?

Not only is that a win win situation in that scenario but I still see Frank selling out too.
Logo will not only need Qtv if it succeeds but if Frank keeps like he is now they will be wanting it badly. It will save their own production costs and increase their overall available content in an instant as well as have benefitted from the hype and promos Frank is doing now. If Logo goes over well the demand for original program will increase and be breathing down their necks to stay on top.
Thats my prediction in the long run anyway. Frank cant fight the big boys. Sorry, I just dont see it happening. I have been employeed by the big boys and I see this being a prime opportunity for an acquisition and I think thats great.
Even his sgow totles dont have to change. Q on the Move could very easily stay that and be on another station. Recognition goes with the buy and thats always a concern when a buyout happens.
AOL still hasnt changed the name of Netscape or ICQ, and it was years before Spinner changed to Netscape Radio/AOL Radio. People dont like change so any transition that is made needs to be seamless and I think Frank has intentionally set that up for us, well and him. Posted by Pennies to Dollars on :

As the NCTA Show wraps up, we are thrilled with the outcome. We have secured programming deals, been exclusively interviewed by national news programs and acquired high level talent from our competitors. Q's management held a champagne reception on Monday evening that was attended by more than two hundred cable executives. Needless to say, we were a hit.
Management will be returning today to Palm Springs and we will highlight specifics of the event in the coming days.

Chicago Eyes Gay Tourists by Steph Smith 365Gay.com Chicago Bureau April 01 2005
(Chicago, Illinois) The Windy City wants to be known as the Gay City. Hoping to capitalize on the 2006 Gay Games to be held in Chicago Illinois is preparing a massive LGBT media blitz.
"We will have our first-ever media-familiarization trip focusing on the affluent gay and lesbian market," Jan Kostner, deputy director of the Illinois Bureau of Tourism, told a conference on tourism this week.
In August, the state and city will host members of the gay press, showing them the charms of Chicago.
"We will promote the Gay Games, and Chicago and Illinois, as gay-friendly destinations," Kostner told the Chicago Tribune. "We want to get the city on the radar screen."
Community Marketing, a company that advises cities on their LGBT ad campaigns estimates that gays and lesbians spent an estimated $54.1 billion on travel in 2003.
A good chunk of that cash has gone to Montreal, the first city in North America to aggressively court the gay tourist.
Philadelphia, New Orleans and Minneapolis have recently launched their own gay ad campaigns.
Chicago has a good base to work from. The city is already ranked 8th-most-visited U.S. destination in a survey conducted last year by Community Marketing.
The Gay Games is expected to bring about 12,000 participants to the city and to generate more than $25 million in spending.
"Q" Television will be there with the television rights, this will be sweet for "Q" with all that exposure. IMO we will have networks banging at our doors wanting to share the rights, $$$ in the bank.

BREAKING NEWS OXYGEN WEBSITE 04/05/05
OXYGEN RENEWS MULTIYEAR CARRIAGE AGREEMENTS WITH COX AND INSIGHT AND ADDS NEW SUBSCRIBERS ON COMCAST AND ADELPHIA
SAN FRANCISCO, CA, April 3, 2005 -- Oxygen has completed multi-year distribution renewals with Cox Communications and Insight Communications, with continued distribution in markets including Orange County, Northern Virginia (including DC suburbs), Columbus, and Louisville. Oxygen recently announced a renewal agreement with Charter Communications and with the edition of Cox and Insight; it now has long term agreements with every major multi-system operator. In addition, as of April 6th, the network will add 80,000 new Comcast subscribers in Cleveland, Ohio, rounding out full distribution in that market. In March, Oxygen added additional customers throughout Southern California on Adelphia’s expanded basic tier. Oxygen was also recently launched on Comcast in Anne Arundel County, Maryland and Augusta, Georgia. Oxygen launched in eight million cable households in 2000 and is presently carried in 54.5 million homes. The women-owned and operated network is the only independent network to have gained widespread distribution in the last five years. Over 90% of the network’s carriage is on expanded basic tiers. “The conventional wisdom has always been that it would be harder for us to gain distribution as an independent programmer,” said Geraldine Laybourne, Chairman and CEO for Oxygen. “We’ve disproved that theory by working closely with our partners and going the extra mile to deliver the best network for women 18 to 49. We intend to build on our relationship with our distribution partners by working hard to be their favorite network.” “Oxygen has a formula for programming that’s unique, fresh and very different than any other network,” said Pamela Euler Halling, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Programming for Insight.

Mr. Brown,
I have emailed you on several occasions without ever receiving a response. I hope that this email will not follow a similar fate.
Today, I noticed several (>45) 9million share blocks being sold at the bid around 12 noon. This much volume is clearly an indication of a prearranged sale/purchase, or cancellation of shares possibly? Can you please comment on these trades, and if they were cancellation of shares, or financing of some sort to conitnue buisness operations? If it was a prearranged sale, is dilution of the stock occurring, and to whom was the financing arrangement made?
Thank you in advance,

IMHO.....
The huge "sell-off" was nothing more than mirror sells by the MM's to shake some sells.....I keep asking myself this:
1) Why didn't they drop the bid for such a huge sell? 2) The company acknowledges that they had nothing to do with this, so we know there is no dilution, do who would of sold 400million shares? 3) If the MM's were "stocking up" for a future run (which I believe they are), then by mirroring the sells, they caused some to panic and thus we saw additional sells throughout the remainder of the day and they dropped the price further because the buyers were scared off thinking that it will drop further! 4) The MM's know what the charts look like, and thier actions produce the results that we see! The chart is appearing to begin to go back down (MACD is flatlined on the high side and will begin to fall back down absent some GOOD news).
With all this being said, I will watch tomorrow and if it falls below 30, then I will be selling and waiting for the low 20's again which will probably come by the end of next week! Selling at 30 and repurchasing at 20 gives me 50% more for the longer term!

Do not be shocked if we find out that they've been doing an agressive buyback! Matter of fact, don't be shocked if Opra sometime in the future discloses a huge position in this thing!

.0019/.0020 is not the new bottom, .0029/.0030 is, look the blocks the MMs threw out the day of the PR regarding the "investor interested in buying up to .01". They already have enough short selling accumulation that they won't go under .0029.
Besides, the Dateline story on Naked Short Selling happens this April 10th. Public and government pressure is building on the hedge funds to let some of these stocks go. They've already got their accumulation, now they have to cover.

You can't unless you're shorting.

The only thing that makes sense to me is that when an individual person sells and there is no buyer the shares must stay in the Market Makers inventory. I have seen days where there were much more buys than sells but not to todays extreme of 89.5%.

Looks like the MM's are trying to bring the price down again. Can't wait to get off the pinks.
Posted by Ligge on :
OK, I am missing something. I have shorted before (no, not Q) and I still dont get how this... maybe its just been a long day for me.
If I sell short 500k of XYZ, its technically borrowed from the broker shares but, someone still has to be buying it so that I can be selling, right?
The only thing that makes some sense to me is if the MMs are buying that to cover previous shorts.
Basically what krecik is saying too. Right?
Which if that all stands up as correct then this would have been a really good sign that these guys were trying to cover their positions in a big way.
Where is my logic flawed? Something doesnt feel right.

i would imagine the owner of the Oxygen channel could afford that kind of investment. being the owner she could push for a better time location for Q to air on O2 just a thought nothing to back it.

4/6/2005 - RE: NCTA
From Rene Schenk
As the NCTA Show wraps up, we are thrilled with the outcome. We have secured programming deals, been exclusively interviewed by national news programs and acquired high level talent from our competitors. Q's management held a champagne reception on Monday evening that was attended by more than two hundred cable executives. Needless to say, we were a hit.
Management will be returning today to Palm Springs and we will highlight specifics of the event in the coming days.
Posted by Penny-Trader on :
this is interesting. they had a party after the convention with 200+ cable execs.
where they celebrating new partnerships? new deals maybe some new investors?
think about it you don't throw a champagne reception because you failed at the convention.
Something really big is brewing. I'm locked and loaded and ready to go.
this is really encouraging.

Posted on IHUB by firefight4..Good Summary of our competition!!
HereTv- the REAL story, heres what I have found....this gets a little confusing from hereTv's standpoint since their availability options vary depending on which carrier you have. Just remember, HereTv airs 12 hours a day from 6pm- 6 am. Q Television airs 24/7(just like HBO etc) for 7.95 a month..............(further explained below)
1) HereTv offers ONLY 12 hours of programming a day from 6 pm-6am. here is proof from HereTv's website.... note: On Directv you pay 9.99 a month for 12 hours of programming a day. Q Television airs 24 hrs a day for 7.95......
ON DIRECTV: Now you have two ways to get here! on DIRECTV: Get here! The first premium channel for gays and lesbians! Order a monthly subscription and get access to all here! programming - including Pay Per View titles! It's fast and easy: go to www.directv.com/here or call 1-800-DIRECTV to subscribe now! Once you have subscribed, go to channel 190 between 6pm and 6am ET and watch all the here! you want. Cost is $9.99 per month.
Order a three-hour block of programming with Pay Per View and get a taste of here! . Go to www.directv.com/here or channel 190 between 6am and 6pm. Cost is $5.99 per block.
2) HereTv will say in some prs that they are 24/7 but that is not entirely true, sure you can access their Video On Demand features 24/7 but they only air regular programming for 12 hours a day. Cablevision offers this for 6.95 a month and RCN/Starpower offer it for 8.95 a month, so-called 24/7 access, that is inaccurate imo. Q offers true 24/7 access since you get to view all their programming 24/7, not Video On Demand.
VIA On Demand Subscription with iO digital cable service from Cablevision: With iO, here! TV is currently offered as an On Demand subscription. As a subscriber, you will have access to all here! programming, all the time. here! is available on Channel 506 or select here! On Demand directly from the main menu. Cost is $6.95 per month
3) HereTv on Cox cable, you must pay 6.95 for 30 hours of programming a month. Q offers 24/7 unlimited access all month long for 7.95.... On Cox Cable..... here! will be available as a subscription service for $6.95 per month. Digital cable customers can have access to 30 hours of programming from here! with new content refreshed regularly. This includes original feature-length films, original series and selections from the world's largest gay and lesbian film library. All of here!'s critically acclaimed content is targeted to a broad-based gay and lesbian audience.
4) Most HereTv carriers such as Comcast, Dish, Time Warner, Adelphia only offer Video On Demand in which you must pay for each movie/title you want to see and that costs between 3.99-5.99 per title. No subscription service is available on these carriers. Thats expensive imo.
To sum it up.... On HereTv you have to.... 1) pay 6.95 for 30 hours of programming a month on Cox 2) pay 9.99 a month and get to watch from 6pm- 6 am every day 3) pay 3.99-5.99 per movie depending on which carrier you have also, on DISH and Comcast you can only pay per view, NO subscription available
On Q Television, you pay 7.95 a month for 24/7 access.

Posted by buckwheatbob on :
I guess we will find out exactly how the champaigne bash went on the next PR. As I said before, out of the 3 GLB stations available, I believe Q is the only one trading publicly and they are basically everywhere in the publics eye. The post from Rich was a good one and a very good point for $'s vs value for the customer. As we have all seen, sometimes you have to read deep and all of a PR to get the whole story.

Well said, Farley.
I have no problem hearing negative opinions about any stock I own . . . if the authors will explain the reason for their posts. There are only three legitimate reasons why anyone would post negatives about a stock:
1) To make the share price decline so they can buy more shares. (I understand this reason.) 2) To "save" others from losing their money. (I suggest they spend more time making money and let others fend for themselves.) 3) To purge themselves of anger and frustration caused by losing money. (Cheaper than a shrink, I guess, but not likely to help them recover any money.)
I welcome all replies and comments. But please be honest enough to tell me WHY you post negative opinions. Especially if you own the stock.

*** This is really big for Oxygen TV and now that our programming is on Oxygen, this will be a huge chance for the public to see what our "Q" can do. Just a matter of time

OXYGEN RENEWS MULTIYEAR CARRIAGE AGREEMENTS WITH COX AND INSIGHT AND ADDS NEW SUBSCRIBERS ON COMCAST AND ADELPHIA
SAN FRANCISCO, CA, April 3, 2005 -- Oxygen has completed multi-year distribution renewals with Cox Communications and Insight Communications, with continued distribution in markets including Orange County, Northern Virginia (including DC suburbs), Columbus, and Louisville. Oxygen recently announced a renewal agreement with Charter Communications and with the edition of Cox and Insight; it now has long term agreements with every major multi-system operator. In addition, as of April 6th, the network will add 80,000 new Comcast subscribers in Cleveland, Ohio, rounding out full distribution in that market. In March, Oxygen added additional customers throughout Southern California on Adelphia’s expanded basic tier. Oxygen was also recently launched on Comcast in Anne Arundel County, Maryland and Augusta, Georgia. Oxygen launched in eight million cable households in 2000 and is presently carried in 54.5 million homes. The women-owned and operated network is the only independent network to have gained widespread distribution in the last five years. Over 90% of the network’s carriage is on expanded basic tiers. “The conventional wisdom has always been that it would be harder for us to gain distribution as an independent programmer,” said Geraldine Laybourne, Chairman and CEO for Oxygen. “We’ve disproved that theory by working closely with our partners and going the extra mile to deliver the best network for women 18 to 49. We intend to build on our relationship with our distribution partners by working hard to be their favorite network.” “Oxygen has a formula for programming that’s unique, fresh and very different than any other network,” said Pamela Euler Halling, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Programming for Insight.
Looks good for "Q" to be associated with this

Posted by Farley on :
Anyone can say anything they want as long as it is not liable. I really don't care when 'bashers' come on boards and spew the same ol' rhetoric about how stock ABC is not going to make it.
We have about 5000-6000 investors in QBID, that number are going to start increasing exponentially; basher’s comments won’t make any difference at that point. They can try and play there games now and that is fine. I personally don’t care if we take a cpl years to get to $1, I can wait for that, I have a big enough stake that I will be retired at that point.
When I bought SIRI at .70 and XMSR at 3.50 everyone around me in my close circle of friends thought I was crazy, “Why would you spend 50k on 2 stocks that are almost on the verge of bankruptcy”(this was at the time SIRI was trying to get Ford to finance them and XMSR was trying to get GM, the deals were NOT finalized.). I have one answer and this also applies to QBID, it’s called I have “Vision”. I knew that SIRI and XMSR would blossom and take over radio, terrestrial radio is dead, and it just doesn’t know it yet. And now look at SIRI and XMSR, SIRI is currently undervalue and trading @ 5.43 and XMSR is overvalued and currently trading @ 30.35. I have made a bundle on both of those stocks and I have the “Vision” to know that QBID will do the same.
The bottom line is if you don’t have the vision to see where a stock is going then you may want to just get out and move on. Frank has the vision to make QBID a strong prominent network, he obviously has serious backing with all that is going on in the latest PR’s. Read the PR’s carefully, while reading them FORGET what you want to hear (carriers etc) and look at the where the company is going and incorporate that with the vision of where the company is going. It just might change your viewpoint from worrying so much to getting excited about what’s to come.
Sorry for the long rant!

Posted by madmoney on :
seems to me market makers are in control here,they can bring us up simply by raising the BID and ask every time a few trades go through at the ask,if they did that momentem would carry us up 1000% in a day. there are many investers out there waiting for that kind of action to step in. the only way they can bring it down is with a repeat of yesterdays volume while dropping the bid, but for that they would need to own many shares at a very low price. with all the accumulation going on lately i dont see that as a possibilty.so far volume is very light and mm`s still have not updated their b/a times this may be the calm before the storm! holding long and strong!!

duckpond Please help me understand your reply to Farley's message.
If you are arguing that everyone has the right to post an opinion, I agree totally. And Farley never said otherwise.
My reply to Farley's message also confirms everyone's right to express an opinion.
I said: "I have no problem hearing negative opinions about any stock I own . . . if the authors will explain the reason for their posts."
I can understand when people have doubts about a stock, since no stock is a sure thing. But I do not understand why anyone posts negative opinions about a stock, especially one they own.
My question has nothing to do with "freedom of speech". It simply asks for the "logic" behind posting a negative opinion. I gave 3 reasons why someone might post a negative opinion. One makes sense to me, the other two don't.
My reason for posting this message is simply to gain understanding. I am curious. I don't want to change anyone's mind about QBID. I just want to understand some of the comments I am reading.
If I have misunderstood your comment, please let me know.

Father Hope you are wrong about the price dropping that much, but you've explained your actions very logically. Thanks for sharing, and good luck.
I "probably" won't sell any shares yet unless I think I can get out and back in before the next price spike. Unfortunately, I keep missing the dips and spikes, proof of my confused mind.

bottom...
I see it this way..... if it stays where it is, then next week when some of my other plays go up with the cash I freed up here, I am still ahead when I buy back in....
However, the charts all are pointing for a drop in pps, without that spectacular PR. Even if in only drops to 27, I can get 10% more shares which is 300,000.... like I said before, I am holding 2 mill core shares and will ahve some fun playing some other stocks... like DDSI... its charts look great in comparison!

Suz....
refer back to what I posted yesterday (posted below).... I clearly stated that if it fell below 30, then I would sell a portion. As soon as the bid dropped to 29, I placed my sell order for 30, and it finally took.....And right now, the ask has dropped to 30, so I essentially can get right back in at the same price. As I have stated, I am holdling a core position of 2 million shares and will try and bank some extra dough so I can put it back into Q when I think it will start a run back up. I would like nothing better than to see that grand slam pr, at which time I would probably get out of some of my other things and buy right back in!
I was hoping for some good news today, and when it didn't come, I saw it as an opportunity to get more shares by swinging a portion of my holdings. The huge "sell-off" yesterday reminded me too much of the last time we saw the big sells and it dropped from ~ 29 down to 17........You are absolutely correct in that I am banking on a similar fate! I am in NO WAY bashing this stock, I have only clearly stated my opinion on what I see in reading the technical charts! Nothing more... nothing less!

The huge "sell-off" was nothing more than mirror sells by the MM's to shake some sells.....I keep asking myself this:
1) Why didn't they drop the bid for such a huge sell? 2) The company acknowledges that they had nothing to do with this, so we know there is no dilution, do who would of sold 400million shares? 3) If the MM's were "stocking up" for a future run (which I believe they are), then by mirroring the sells, they caused some to panic and thus we saw additional sells throughout the remainder of the day and they dropped the price further because the buyers were scared off thinking that it will drop further! 4) The MM's know what the charts look like, and thier actions produce the results that we see! The chart is appearing to begin to go back down (MACD is flatlined on the high side and will begin to fall back down absent some GOOD news).
With all this being said, I will watch tomorrow and if it falls below 30, then I will be selling and waiting for the low 20's again which will probably come by the end of next week! Selling at 30 and repurchasing at 20 gives me 50% more for the longer term!

had to go out for a while. just got back. looks like mm`s having a hard time finding sellers,way to go longs! indicators are up @ 0031 and 0039 looks good so far. volume is ok for no news,lots of buys at 003 may see 31-32 buy end of day or not! dont matter to me none,our day IS comming. so hold tight and dont fall prey to pessimism understandable though it may be. i for one belive we will make it! if you are looking for an excuse or validation to justify selling for a loss dont look at me, i can afford to lose my entire investment though i dont belive i will, if i do you wont see me crying about it on this board. resistance is futile,success is inevitable.

i dont understand investors in this stock posting opinions on negative price movement based in part on lack of expected prs.most of the prs we have seen lately came without any advanced notice. this as most pinks seems to move best on anticipation of news not the news itself as we longs have seen with qbid, reading between the lines can be as exciting as a good pr and move or stabilize the price just as much,as for basing future price movement on charts it is for most pink sheet stocks questionable at best. of course we all have our own method of investing and every one is free to post their thoughts,for myself i take everything i read here with a grain of salt,however i do value all views possitive and negative. i will continue to make my own investment decisions but every point of view and all opinions are welcome wether i agree with them or not. thank you and GLTA p.s. opinions dont require an explantion read them accept them, read them ignore them the choice is yours, no need to argue its only stock!
Posted by suzainiee on :
Father, of course you posted a detailed explanation of your proposed sell yesterday.
It just seems like the same thing happened weeks ago--hated to, but said that you were going to sell around .0027 or something lower.
Then when someone asked how to swing on such a tight spread and as the pps went up, you posted that you didn't really ever sell your shares.
You left the board about the time some of those newbies hatched. Then after they left, reappeared to drop a few short hopeful remarks after the last little run just as we started stepping down.
Now it's time for the charts again, for your logic and more importantly--your detailed trading strategies.
With your competence and skill, you should have sold around .004.
Of course, if that is the case, you would need to get back in under .0030, wouldn't you?
Last time, you said one thing, but you did something completely opposite.
For those new to the board...do not ever make any decisions based on any member's post--especially my posts! Posted by g-invest on :
I bought at .0024 and sold at .0045 the day of the bounce.
I intend to seriously load up on QBID at .0024 again, and probably hold on for a bit longer of a ride next time.
I'm already refilling my position in MLXO.

Besides, the Dateline story on Naked Short Selling happens this April 10th. Public and government pressure is building on the hedge funds to let some of these stocks go. They've already got their accumulation, now they have to cover.

suz... you are absolutely correct.... I said that I was going to sell last time... but I didn't! The price fell too fast and I didn't pull the trigger. I should have sold and doubled my position.
FYI... during the last run I sold 120k @ 0.0041 for $400 so that I could have fun and plya other stocks. I have since traded that to $3000....my 120k shares sold are roughly equal to 1million qbid.
If you have been following my posts and threads, you would see that I am more of a tech chart trader than a swing momentum "catch the run" trader. I see qbid at the start of a downturn and I am going to play it this time. For stated reasons above, I believe (In my own opinion), that this will be going down some more....now that it has fallen below the 20dma, the MACD is trending down, the stochs are trending down, the rsi is falling, support at 29/30 was broken.... I see this dropping back down to the 20-22 level!
Believe me when I say that if the "big" news PR came out tomorrow, I would be buying at whatever price even if it were higher than my .003 sell point.
I will still cheerlead this and hope that it turns around quickly since I have 2 million shares still in my bank. IN the meantime, I am going to have some fun trading some other stocks while I wait for my buy in point!

You don't have to state your buy and sell points to others....
Just a thought.....

Hi All, I hope that some of you were able to get in on GTEL. It was up .04 since yesterday's close. I'm up another $3700 on it today. This will probably break .5 next week or the following week IMHO. Best of Luck!!

I state them in the interests of full disclosure, unlike others on this board. By stating a buy and sell, even if it changes, I don't look like a pumper. Originally, I bought several weeks ago at .0024 and sold at .0045.
I believed the .0029 to be the wall, and it held up today, but with the Dateline story being delayed yet again (just heard this today, not yesterday when I made that post), I can see MMs pushing this as far south as they want to. Either way, I intend to accumulate at .0024.
If the .0029/.0030 bid holds as the new bottom, then I won't be accumulating and I'll have to live knowing I missed my chance.
I do know that with QBID the PR days seem to be Monday/Tuesday. With that in mind, there's a long ways to go to hit .0024 and especially a long way to go to hit .0019. But then again, this is all just my opinion.

As a technical guy myself, yes, I am not missing the 2 month/daily MACD that would indicate this is due for a downswing. I don't think it'll get nearly as low as it did last time, and consider my buy in .0024 (from last time) as a good bottom this time around.
The problem that I have with continuing to play this on technicals is that Pridevision just delayed the rolling out of their new OutTV, there's been recent pressure on the SEC and DTCC regarding naked short selling by hedge funds from congree, and the Oxygen airings are going to happen as soon as April 14th (that's next Thursday!).
I find it hard to believe that the fall from .0035 to .0017, which took more than a week, can be accomplished before another fairly significant PR comes out.
If anything, I find it *more* likely that .0029 or so is the new bottom and that it might rise steadily a penny or so back to .0034 before Thursday of next week. Even with a fru-fru PR on Monday/Tuesday next week. Then, the Friday or Monday PR may have the estimated # of viewers, and we might shoot up another .0010 or so from there.
Am I sounding insane here? I'd really like to get other's opinion's on this.
Posted by FatherOfTwo on :
g-invest...
not insane at all... and maybe my prediction of low 20's is off base....but it is the next level of support that I see.....
I also have been around long enough to know that if a big juicy PR is about to be released, the MM's usually will try to drop it down big time and really fast to shake out every last share that they can....I see this happening again in the next week or two, just like when it was dropped down to 17 and then it shot right back up!
I too would be very happy with buying back in at 0.0024....at that point I get my 3 mill back and pocket $2800...or of course, I could pick up 3.75 mill!

I still have 2 million shares..... so I am still in this boat..... I will continue to post and I will be buying back in BIG....If it drops down to the mid 20's or lower (and my others do as I expect), I figure I can pick up at least 5 million more! My goal is 10 million shares, which gives me $300K at 0.03!!!!!!!! I can pay off the house, cars and take a nice vacation! That is what I want!
It is funny now how I view everything in shares of Qbid....
CNES @ 0.01 = 2.5 million qbid DDSI @ 0.0013 = .5 million qbid PTSN @ 0.001 = 1.25 million qbid $10 lunch = 4000 shares qbid...... =) Posted by Ruh420 on :

Is it possible that Frank negotiated "vendor" discounts for the crew to attend these events?????? When I used to work for an Oil & Gas company, the cruise lines that we supplied fuel to would give us upto 75% off advertised fares for cruises..... I am sure that Orbitz can get killer deals on hotel rooms and AW surely could give a ride to a couple gay celebs!!!!

OUTtv LAUNCH DELAYED TO APRIL 12TH SHAW CABLE AND BELL EXPRESSVU AT AN IMPASSE to DISTRIBUTE GAY CHANNEL
TORONTO, (Canada), April 7, 2005 – The OUTtv launch originally scheduled for today has been delayed to April 12th due to technical problems from digital cable and satellite providers and not from the network. This launch extension will also give OUTtv more time to come to terms with Shaw Communications and Bell ExpressVu. Negotiations have been difficult and are at an impasse as both carriers are refusing to distribute OUTtv in an appropriate manner. Agreements have been made with the remaining cable and satellite carriers including Rogers, Cogeco, Videotron and the independents. The CRTC is currently processing complaints submitted by OUTtv to assist in removing these impasses. Shaw and Bell ExpressVu are both required by law to carry OUTtv as a Category 1 programming service.

Hello everyone...
This isn't exactly on topic, but I thought it was an interesting article about CEOs and made me immediately think of our friend Frank. This is printed in the latest edition of Always On magazine, Spring 2005, but is actually an older article from late last year. Anyhow, for what it's worth:
For my part, I'm all over the map as far as Frank is concerned. Sometimes, he looks and sounds the part, other times he seems way off the mark.

Gay Network Splits Up by Jed Lang, 365Gay.com Entertainment
Canada's PrideVision is seeing double. The world's first LGBT television network is twinning itself, spinning off a second network that will be all porn.
PrideVision has had an eclectic mix of mainstream gay programming mixed with adult films after midnight since its beginning. Now, the adult content will be stripped away, making it easier for cable companies to sell the network in packages with other digital channels.
Beginning April 12 the adult material will have its own channel called Hard. PrideVisiion is getting a new name too. It will be called OUTtv.
“PrideVision needed to divide into two channels due to high demand and the tremendously broad range of programming to serve the GLBT communities better,” says Bill Craig, the new President of both OUTtv and HARD on PrideVision.
“Because OUTtv will have dramatically increased reach through package distribution going from 20,000 subscribers to upwards of 700,000 over the next few months, it will substantially increase relevant programming for the GLBT community currently not available on any other mainstream channel."
OUTtv will also begin airing a daily live newscast and add a phone-in show to its roster.
A new season featuring GLBT books and authors, Read OUT! will also debut, as well as new episodes of the West-Coast produced series, Way Out West TV . Also Fairy Tale , the unscripted GLBT dating series that gained international attention as one-of-a-kind in the world, will have its world television premier for its second season on OUTtv. A brand new series, I Now Pronounce You... focuses on gay and lesbian weddings, and is hosted by comedian Trevor Boris. The second season of the internationally syndicated Canadian gay travel series Bump! will also debut this year. Bump! was the highest rated show on PrideVision
OUT tv will also increase its national and international acquisitions substantially, providing a new slate of relevant programming for Canada’s GLBT television audience including the much-anticipated North American premiere of The Big Bow Wow , a stylish and gritty drama featuring 20-something’s in the heart of Dublin, Ireland. More movies, documentaries, sitcoms, talk shows and further seasons of popular programs such as Prisoner: Cell Block H , Queer As Folk , and FortheboysTV will also return.
The success of PrideVision has attracted interest from fledgling US gay broadcaster Q Television of Palm Springs.

Ricardo, I've been trying to get the word out here in Columbia. I emailed the tha man in charge of the gay/lesbian community center. Also have informed the gay/lesbian church and talked it up at the last Pride fest.
You're right though because we have Time Warner Cable and if we could get people to call them maybe they would consider carrying it and that would be a HUGE deal.

Good job Peaser.. I actually did the same a while back.. took my 3k lose in Q and move what was left to GTEL. I am now up 7.7k for moving it. I hope Q does make it some day and will get back in once it shows movement. Until then Good luck everyone.

Viacom to Buy Q in June
My husband's best friend from college who works for Viacom in New York said that Viacom was going to buy Q along with all its programming and staff who want to make the change over to Logo.
Viacom has been footing the bills of Q for the last several months and is paying for Q advertisments. Viacom is footing the salary for the big names who have joined the Q team the last couple of months. You all know it takes money to get big names. Viacom wants Q to be as strong as possible before the buy out. The stronger Q looks at the time of the announcment the easier for the transition. Viacom wants Q to be at ever major event before the buy out to get the word out about Gay television.
This is why Q has not been looking to get up on any carriers at this time. Oxygen is being paid by viacom to run Q on the move to promote the show before the buy out. Q on the move will be fully backed by viacom along with all Q's live programming. Viacom is again paying Q bills and paid for the NCTA boths. Many of the new employees that have signed on with Q is because of the Viacom deal.
Many from Viacom are starting to buy shares of Q since word has leaked out. Jim said Q stock price should increase when Viacom announces the Deal the 1st of June. The deal is worth billions from what Jim was told. Frank and staff will be moved into the logo family. The main goal of frank and Summer Redstone is to get a strong and Family channel up and running for the GLBT community.
We have been friends with Jim for over 12 years and he knows what he is talking about. I read alot of stuff on this board and call it a rumor for now but, wait and watch. June will be big for Q viewers who want to watch a great channel for the GLBT community.
Hope this helps I am very excited for many of my friends are gay and I think this is a needed thing for them.

It may not happen the way I thought back in December. See post #73285. I was right about one thing. They delayed their launch. And it was for exactly the reasons I stated.
But now it's dawned on me that when logo finally makes it on the air we will see some original programing from the leader! QBID! With out initially buying them!
Just maybe Sumner Redstone has a much more clever agenda. He didn't get rich by accident. I wrote net long ago that I believe he was actually rooting for QBID to be a success & that he wouldn't launch until he saw that there was a market for this product. All this is pure speculation on my part but I will not be surprised by anything that comes down the pike now!
Actually I'm only sure of a few things.
Genuine Broadcasting International TV Networks do not trade for less than a dollar a share!
Frank will not own this company five years from now & I'll be rich because of that fact.
And of course my favorite,,,,,,,,,,,,
"All we ever had to do is launch!"
......................................................................................................... I wrote this a solid month or more before Viacom announced they were delaying for exactly the reasons I outlined! No garuantees but it was pretty obvious in hindsight & sure as hell supports any rumor of a Viacom buyout!

Viacom knows th G/L community will not pay good money for the type of programing they offer. This demographic is working with $600 Billion Dollars of Discretionary income for a reason. Their numbers tend to be much better educated than than any other segment of society or minority. Viacom's Sumner Redstone wants to get in on the gold rush & he knows that MTV's form of programing is unlikely to attract & hold this customer. MTV has made a mint by programing in such a way as not to challenge their audience on a cognitive level. Viacom may never launch LOGO,,,unless they buy QBID!
Frank has a history of developing & selling media companies. That's what he's doing now!!!! He may not say it but he will sell. When he has said there will be no reverse split as long as I'm a part of this company he's not saying there will never be a reverse split. He's saying it will not occur while he's the owner! He doesn't care about O/S. He simply cares about owning controlling interest. $3.80 a share for 1.5 billion shares is the same as .38 a share for 15 billion shares.
Frank has said this will be worth about $5 Billion in 5 years. I guarantee you he will not own this 5 years from now. Frank will sell the whole thing for approximately $6 billion in less than two years. Viacom's first bid will be about .24! They'll settle at .38 .......................................................................................................
And that's the only way I don't get $1.25 a share!!!!

Nice rumor.
Something that is not a rumor--Comcast is trading Time-Warner and acquiring Adelphia.
Like most rumors, this one sounds reasonable too--we have discussed the pros and cons on such a deal before.
That would also answer why we haven't heard much news from LOGO so very close to June.
Seems that most of us agree that QTN will be sold at some point--which brings up the question of how our shares would be affected.
Perhaps, charleyjeansurvivor will have a post for that, too. lol

Like most rumors, this one sounds reasonable too--we have discussed the pros and cons on such a deal before.
That would also answer why we haven't heard much news from LOGO so very close to June.
Seems that most of us agree that QTN will be sold at some point--which brings up the question of how our shares would be affected.
Perhaps, charleyjeansurvivor will have a post for that, too. lol
We will benifit!

That’s a nice piece of info Whiz and I don't want to sound negative, but that type of info has been floating around for about a year or more since I got in. Is there anything a little more solid for proof? I am sure many of us would love this to be true and I do appreciate the info, but solid evidence is what we need.

It may not happen the way I thought back in December. See post #73285. I was right about one thing. They delayed their launch. And it was for exactly the reasons I stated.
But now it's dawned on me that when logo finally makes it on the air we will see some original programing from the leader! QBID! With out initially buying them!
Just maybe Sumner Redstone has a much more clever agenda. He didn't get rich by accident. I wrote net long ago that I believe he was actually rooting for QBID to be a success & that he wouldn't launch until he saw that there was a market for this product. All this is pure speculation on my part but I will not be surprised by anything that comes down the pike now!
Actually I'm only sure of a few things.
Genuine Broadcasting International TV Networks do not trade for less than a dollar a share!
Frank will not own this company five years from now & I'll be rich because of that fact.
And of course my favorite,,,,,,,,,,,,
"All we ever had to do is launch!"
......................................................................................................... I wrote this a solid month or more before Viacom announced they were delaying for exactly the reasons I outlined! No garuantees but it was pretty obvious in hindsight & sure as hell supports any rumor of a Viacom buyout!

Viacom knows th G/L community will not pay good money for the type of programing they offer. This demographic is working with $600 Billion Dollars of Discretionary income for a reason. Their numbers tend to be much better educated than than any other segment of society or minority. Viacom's Sumner Redstone wants to get in on the gold rush & he knows that MTV's form of programing is unlikely to attract & hold this customer. MTV has made a mint by programing in such a way as not to challenge their audience on a cognitive level. Viacom may never launch LOGO,,,unless they buy QBID!
Frank has a history of developing & selling media companies. That's what he's doing now!!!! He may not say it but he will sell. When he has said there will be no reverse split as long as I'm a part of this company he's not saying there will never be a reverse split. He's saying it will not occur while he's the owner! He doesn't care about O/S. He simply cares about owning controlling interest. $3.80 a share for 1.5 billion shares is the same as .38 a share for 15 billion shares.
Frank has said this will be worth about $5 Billion in 5 years. I guarantee you he will not own this 5 years from now. Frank will sell the whole thing for approximately $6 billion in less than two years. Viacom's first bid will be about .24! They'll settle at .38 .......................................................................................................
And that's the only way I don't get $1.25 a share!!!!

its also a mild subtle bash at trying to get you to sell your shares. really do you think that anyone really cares about us once they sell off thier shares and move on. I sold out of Cetek a while ago and have never went back and read anythign about it. really why would you. if you have moved on whats the point in coming back to read the thread on your old stocks.
in my opinion anyone that continues to post to a thread after statign that they have sold out is only playing a head game to get you to sell your shares to them cheap.
JMHO no insults ment by it. just how i feel.

Well, I was around for the first run to .025 and QBID treated me pretty good. Unfortunately it did not keep going. Based on a lot of rumors, I was getting a sour taste in my mouth over this stock. it then began to get a lot of positive output. I can see this still taking awhile but I think the outcome will pay off. IMO, I still think dips and peaks are the route to go. It will create a better position in the end run.
Posted by LEO on :
Hello everyone,
I've been slowly accumulating shares of QBID over the past month and reading this thread regularly. You all seem like a nice group of folks, even when there is tension here it doesn't get nasty like some other threads. When the big party in Vegas goes down I would like to celebrate with you all. As I am new to playing stocks I have been laying low, learning as much as I can, and especially learning how to do my own DD. Now I have a question; what happens to a company's stocks when it is bought out by another company, i.e. Viacom buys Q Television? Thanks, Leo.
Posted by Ligge on :
Depends on the deal. Sometimes they merge/convert into stock of the new company sometimes they just get paid off.
You see it happen often that company A buys company B and then share holders of company B get 1 share of company A for every 2 of shares of comapny B they had. All dependent on values of the deal and the values of the companys involved.
Say Disney is 20 a share and QBID is 1 a share.. chances are for every 20 shares of QBID you have you will get 1 share of Viacom - or something along that lines.
Two examples of past stocks I held where this happened were Netscape and CDNow. I believe I got 1.5 shares (something like that) of AOL when they bought Netscape and I know I got cashed out for whatever the deal value was when BMG bought CDNOW. I was holding the companys that got bought not the ones buying.
Posted by LEO on :
Thanks Ligge, Sounds like getting bought out would bring higher profits sooner. Sweet.
Posted by Rich735 on :
Welcome LEO!
I started in Dec 2004 "lurking" on allstocks and found the QBID thread. I would have to agree with you about everyone being so nice. We have molded ourselves into a internet family, if you will. Yes we do disagree sometimes but usually apologize to each other and go on. The regular Qbidians (that's what we call ourselves)here respect each other...it's the bashers you have to watch out for. After awhile you will be able to tell who is real and who are the wolves in sheeps clothing...LOL I look forward to the party in Vegas as well!! I still consider myself a newbie when it comes to DD,especially to some of these great minds on this thread.(won't name in case I leave one out:)! )So I will leave it up to them to answer your question. But IMO I would think it would only be positive news if we were bought!
Hope to hear from you more, Rich
Posted by LEO on :
Thanks Rich 735,
I've already figured out who some of the great minds are, there's for sure a lot to be learned by all...what I lack in DD to bring to this thread I'll try to make up for in good energy. Thanks again, Leo
Posted by g-invest on :
Just in case you didn't know, the other players in the game is here! TV, Pridevision, LOGO, etc.
I'd like to know a little bit more about your reasoning. Why would LOGO/Viacom buy QBID over one of these others? Just because it'd be fairly cheap to do?
I would think it'd be better to launch, thus shaking more investors out of QBID so the price drops, then buying it up at a more reasonable (for them, anyway) price.
Buying at 24 cents a share would mean that Frank would have about (8 billion shares) 1.9 billion dollars, that seems a bit high of an estimate. Five cents might be a bit more reasonable.

HERO UNIT PRODUCTIONS INC. PACTS WITH Q TELEVISION NETWORK note: thanks to a poster named foxy for finding this.
April 07, 2005 - 05:37pm [National] ArtsEnt ---------------------------------------------------------------- PRESS RELEASE
Hero Unit Productions Inc. an Atlanta-based company, announced today it's exclusive arrangement with Q Television to produce LGBT sporting and special events. This agreement will allow for greater community content to be brought to the network.
Hero Unit Productions will produce for Q Television the 2005 IGRA Rodeo Season including the Championship Finals; Pride in the Heartland, the 20th Anniversary of Nebraska Pride and, first up, “Steff Mahan In Concert” - a 90 minute concert special of this rising Lesbian new country artist. These specials will compliment the two Hero Unit Productions Inc., shows that regularly air on the network, “The Agenda” and “Road to the 2006 Gay Games,” a monthly special highlighting the stars and stories leading up to the actual Games presentation which is a Q Television Network Exclusive Presentation.
“We continue to seek out exciting and different programming nationwide that can unite, educate and entertain the LGBT community. The rodeo and these specials fulfill our goal of bringing segments of the community to the community as a whole,” said Hero Unit Productions Inc.'s owners Brad Ecton and Noel Hansen. “And with Hero Unit being gay owned and operated, it allows us to produce these programs with the proper perspective they deserve.”
IGRA Rodeo, Look at these sponsors! Bud Light, American Airlines, Bacardi.
My reasoning is based in part on how people on this thread are feeling, the caliber of this company based on what they've been doing recently, such as their advertising, Dinah Shore, the quality of the people and equipment they are using to produce they're shows and the talent I have heard they have been acquiring,etc., and the connections Frank probably has after The Movie Channel deal. I definitely see your point though, as I can see a lot of investers dropping out by .25 cents.

I think we're pretty much on the same page, cautiously optimistic about that rumor. All I was trying to say was that it wouldn't surprise me in the least. QBID is the answer to Sumner Redstone's dreams of tapping into that $600,000,000,000.oo market that he covets! They said they delayed basically because they lacked the content. Frank has the content that is produced by gays, for gays! Sumner is anything but dumb & he knows that will sell better than the stuff MTV has produced. It's all about the money!
Frank can tell us he won't sell till he's blue in the face. If Viacom offers him the right price he will jump on it! Believe that! Do not forget this!!! They have done business before! Viacom has bought one of Franks projects for a nice sum (The Movie Channel). So like I said. Do not be surprised if Redstone scoops this up as well!
One other thing! Peaser may piss people off on this thread but as far as GTEL is concerned, he's right! That puppy is a genuine long term hold. I will personally garuantee you that it is going over a buck near term (a year give or take a few months) & may very well be worth well over $5 within two years *if not alot more*!
What I won't do nor will I tell others to is to sell QBID to get it! QBID has storybook stock written all over it. I'm set where GTEL's concerned but would be perfectly willing to buy more in this range. It's another SIRI only they have no competition that's even close to them.
The only reason I will not buy more now is because QBID is headed down & that's when I buy! Never the less I don't want to make anyone here dislike me but in so far as I genuinely like people on this board I would urge you & anyone else that does not have a position in GTEL to buy some & hold it for two years. You will be glad you did! Out of respect for this board I will not say anymore on the subject!

Unlike some on this board, I invest and don't day trade. Thanks for the heads up on GTEL.

You Go Frank, get it on with Sumner Posted by Peaser01 on :
In my opinion, this rumor looks as if it will come true.
Why would Q have her yanked off the message board so quick due to the information she released?
I doubt she got a letter to stop posting first. I think Q had her posts pulled due to the fact that they may be afraid that if news leaked out early, then V could hold-off on possible purchase arrangements for the time being.
I think this rumor she posted is an early truth to be revealed at a later date.
Posted by Penny-Trader on :
now I don't know why that would have happened.
if it where true You can bet that logo or Viacom had some influence, trying to squash the rumour.
if the administrator deleted it on his own, he either knows that (a) the story is not true ( which he would have no clue on or (b) she has been making up stories for a while and he has had enough.
if he feels that she is telling stories that would not be reason to kill a message that fast, he would not have any info that we don't have to support or knock down the validity of the story.
so My money is on a.
this would all make sense to me why we don't actually have any large carriers as of yet. We supposedly have a contract with Time Warner from way back but nothing has happened. Why would you actively look for a carrier deal with your competition if you are secretly backing Q.
They could be the private backer that Frank has pred about all along.
And the financials why bother going through the costs of reporting if you are selling out in a couple of months.
I can see a possible 3way merger here with Q logo and Outtv.
sit back and look through all the positive things that have happened int the last 6 months.
who is going to pay 50 million dollars for a road show for a company that only airs i 4 towns on RCN? the answer is someone that can guarantee a carrier deal. 50 million would be nothing for Viacom to throw at this thing.
they are the only ones that could feel confident about a carrier deal as they are the carrier deal that Q has been hinting at since last fall.
if this is true. ( and trust me this is all just speculation on my part) I am surprised that this has not leaked out prior to this point.
now on the other side of the mirror. this could all be just a rumour, dropped to make the pps go up on a speculation run, as the prs are not doing it.
Then the third option could be that this person with the post is completely off her rocker and the administrator knows this.
in conclusion the only thing that make sense to me at this time is the theory that in order for that message to get shut down that fast, Viacom went after them to kill that thread.
JMHO
( warning I am under the influence as i have typed this message. I will not be held responsible for any decisions you make because of reading this statement. these are very forward looking statements and the results may very greatly from my synopsis of this situation)

Posted by whizknock on :
Now imagine that shares are being bought up by not only an investment group but maybe some other interested parties.
What would it cost to buy the float if you wanted to get a headstart on controlling interest in this thing? Some say 25 million would do it. I think 30 million. Ever wonder why the stock is so cheap when everything is falling in place. Ever wonder if paid bashers really exsist.
By the time Sumner openly bids for this thing the remaining shares will easily climb to the .30 range!
Maybe I was wrong about .38! Maybe that was way too conservative!
It sure is nice to know that Frank & Sumner have done business before & both enjoyed huge success from the outcome! Viacom is still airing the Movie Channel & it's doing just fine!

Whiz, I'm thinking/dreaming, lol, Frank will sell in 2-3 years--after the summer games, after the subscriptions rise far beyond expectations and other global deals are operating.
Unless, somebody is smart enough to make him an offer that he just can't refuse this year.
"To accomplish great things, we must not only act, but also dream: not only plan, but also believe."
Frank is a man with a dream, a plan and belief in both himself and in his dream.
With this pps, I'm going to add a few more shares too.

IF the post that started it all is the truth and not a fabrication then I believe that offer has already been made and accepted. A working/in process deal of this nature would likely require Frank and current management to get Q to a certain level before they can hand over the keys to the store and go home successfully retired.

IF the post that started it all is the truth and not a fabrication then I believe that offer has already been made and accepted. A working/in process deal of this nature would likely require Frank and current management to get Q to a certain level before they can hand over the keys to the store and go home successfully retired. Hence road show, advertising etc that is currently happening.

Viacom to Buy Q in June
My husband's best friend from college who works for Viacom in New York said that Viacom was going to buy Q along with all its programming and staff who want to make the change over to Logo.
Viacom has been footing the bills of Q for the last several months and is paying for Q advertisments. Viacom is footing the salary for the big names who have joined the Q team the last couple of months. You all know it takes money to get big names. Viacom wants Q to be as strong as possible before the buy out. The stronger Q looks at the time of the announcment the easier for the transition. Viacom wants Q to be at ever major event before the buy out to get the word out about Gay television.
This is why Q has not been looking to get up on any carriers at this time. Oxygen is being paid by viacom to run Q on the move to promote the show before the buy out. Q on the move will be fully backed by viacom along with all Q's live programming. Viacom is again paying Q bills and paid for the NCTA boths. Many of the new employees that have signed on with Q is because of the Viacom deal.
Many from Viacom are starting to buy shares of Q since word has leaked out. Jim said Q stock price should increase when Viacom announces the Deal the 1st of June. The deal is worth billions from what Jim was told. Frank and staff will be moved into the logo family. The main goal of frank and Summer Redstone is to get a strong and Family channel up and running for the GLBT community.
We have been friends with Jim for over 12 years and he knows what he is talking about. I read alot of stuff on this board and call it a rumor for now but, wait and watch. June will be big for Q viewers who want to watch a great channel for the GLBT community.
Hope this helps I am very excited for many of my friends are gay and I think this is a needed thing for them. ....................................................................................
I don't know how true this is but even if it were a total fabrication I've said many times before that a buyout of QBID by Viacom makes perfect sense. However, I agree 100% with your logic that in fact if there were any truth the offer has been made & accepted & that Frank was told the whole deal rests on him making this thing VERY attractive! Your logic is so clear in fact that you will notice you have another rating vote for five stars.
I like people who are not afraid to speculate on future events. That's what message boards are for! I will repost your message on another board, the RB Member Forum for QBID!
Best of luck to you!

I agree whizknock, speculating on future events is fun. I've been speculating with calculator in hand off and on all day. However, two questions keep popping up: 1. How has Jenny C C 's post, which apparently was removed from that other board in a New York minute, managed to stay on this board for more than 24 hours, and 2. Why do we start out knowing this leak is from "my husband's best friend in college" and then half way through the post we kind of just start knowing him as "Jim"? Not trying to cause doubt or anything here, just wonder if my curiosity is founded or not.

Leo. I have completly left that statement alone. Won't speculate on anything like that. Rumors.
Posted by suzainiee on :
Thanks Whiz and Fly--you guys have always had my *****.
Would it be more advantageous to contract with Frank for a year or two, letting him deal with the schedules, shows, entertainers, producers, directors....... before buying QTN
or
to purchase it now keeping everyone in place and just not worry about the competition?

As a newbie to Q, (2 months now) and pennies in general, has there always been this speculation about Viacom buying them out or is this a new rumor. I mean last spring when it was up, what was the scuttlebutt?

Another Q ad! Girlfriends Magazine, a national magazine.....thats 2 months in a row for this ad....
thanks to this poster for finding this and sharing it.....
By: qbidvenus 09 Apr 2005, 09:30 PM EDT Msg. 811948 of 811948 Jump to msg. # Checked out Girlfriends magazine, May 2005 edition. Full page Q ad still on page 2 and the Gay Games ads are there as well.
What's Girlfriends About?
Founded in 1994, Girlfriends is North America’s only lesbian monthly. Filled with news, commentary, and entertainment, Girlfriends is known for its celebrity coverage and its innovative annual features.
I don't know. I just don't see Viacom buying QBID outright for that much money when frank himself owns so many of the outstanding shares. They might be quietly buying, but I doubt they have been talking to Frank about it.
That HERO UNIT website is from a producer who makes content that is run on OUTtv and Qtv. It's not a merger website. Still, it shows you just how much content is run over between the two.
Also, it is important that people realize that the splitting of Pridevision into two channels is because they want to have a "Gay Family" channel and also a "Adult Gay" channel. The ONLY reason why I can suspect they would be doing this is so they look more appealing to US companies like QBID and/or LOGO. With their hardcore gay porn shows, they are not as lucrative a buy. Now that they are splitting the channels, they look more like "gay life" programming on one, which means they can move their content to the US market.
This is definitely a good time for PrideVision. We'll have to see if it works and Viacom buys them out directly, or lets Q take them and tries to compete. Or, just perhaps, they are doing as whiz says and letting Q make the move, then buying out Q after the deals done.
I suspect there's a lot more behind-the-scenes work going on than we know.
Posted by Ligge on :
Just curious... has anyone asked the orginal message board websites admin why Jenny CC was erased and yanked?
Or the real question, because I am sure someone has, what was the answer given?
Why speculate if it can just be asked.
Posted by g-invest on :
It's probably because June 1st is a Wednesday, and "planned" buyout offers are made on Mondays or Fridays, generally.
Posted by buckwheatbob on :
Now this quote from Whiz I can agree upon 200%! Frank would have incentive "To do what it takes" to meet the criteria set out by Viacom (if this is in fact the speculative buyer).The standards and obligations set out, would have to be met before any form of "Letter of intent" would be offered. There is certain PR’s that will need to come out showing progression for the intent to be covered a well. Revenues and customer base would have to be proven. Once there is proof of revenue, the PPS should start to climb on it’s own. If in fact Frank does sell, will he retain any ownership and will a reverse split still be prevented?
IMHO, I think Frank will remain on board but not with controlling shares. A RS will be inevitable once a buyout happens to make it more attractive at a higher price for share holders. By then I think a lot of us will be sitting quite nicely and not retain shares at that point.
These are just my thoughts.
"However, I agree 100% with your logic that in fact if there were any truth the offer has been made & accepted & that Frank was told the whole deal rests on him making this thing VERY attractive!"

I chopped a ton off the post but I just wanted to comment on this one part.
Just my opinion but I dont see that happening if a Viacom BUYOUT deal is the issue. QBID stocks will go away entirely on a buyout of this nature. Viacom is way to big to do a merger with Q. They will just buy it and whatever is agreed upon price wise is what shareholders will get and poof storys over, we all go home happy.
If this is a long term partnership arrangement and a split in ownership with Frank retaining a 30%+, or something of that nature, then I would see Frank still holding enough reigns to do a buyback instead of RS.
Any less control on Frank's side of ownership equation and you are right R/S is destined.

Under Entertainmnet: MTV Takes An Interactive Angle--MTV Overdrive will include streaming video....
The channel, which MTV calls a "hybrid network", will formally launch on April 25,
just as advertisers and TV networks engage in their annual sales ritual known as "Upfronts", when companies commit their budgets to network programing.
"Our advertisers are either creating budgets for new platforms, or moving existing dollars to them," said Jason Hirschhorn, senior vice president at MTV Networks.
Mr. Hirschhorn declined to disclose the network's investment in the channel, although he said it was a substantial commitment that included the construction of a new studio for Overdrive.
MTV Overdrive will feature 15-second advertisements spliced into its programming, as well as sponsorships banners. Its early custormer, including Sony and Microsoft, are largely the same advertisers that patronise the flagship cable network."
......another broadband channel
"Internet advertising rose by 21 per cent in the US last year to $7.4bn--well ahead of the 9.8 percent gain posted by the sector overall. This year's increase is forecast to more than 10bn. This has spurred companies such as The Washington Post, The New York Times, Dow Jones and others to make internet acquisitions in recent months."
An incentive in last week's Comcast, Warner and Adelphia restructuring??

Good find Suzainiee! And even if it's not Viacom, some one is taking a stake in QBID!
Posted by buckwheatbob on :
Ligge,
You may be right unless they make Q a subsidiary of "Viacom".Share issues at that time would be the sole responsibility of the single entity, pending on the deal arranged that is. The subsidiary would be responsible to pay the mother company a specified amount per quarter or prearranged agreed time frame.
Hense the shell game.

Whiz and Suz,
Excellent finds. If the major players are asserting themselves in the Cnadian fields, this,as you have mentioned, may be part of the indication of the direction of Q.
Example: Q goes after OutTV - Canada
Double C goes after digital Canadian provider - Canadian
That puts COmcast and Cox on this side of the boarder. Maybe Viacom is in bed with them for a 3 way deal? time will tell.
Good example was car manufactures earlier in this thread. 3 major players with their fingers in everyones pie.

**Why do I own this stock?**
I have much to do today, but it is Sunday & I need to decide if this stock is one I want to remain invested in!
It's important for me to review the reasons I got in a stock. Are my reasons still sound? Any major changes either positive or negative?
(1) Do they have a product or service?
(2) Is it a quality product or service?
(3) Is it a marketable product or service?
(4) Are there precedents, companies that provide the same kind of product or service?
(5) Do most if not all these companies trade for over a dollar a share?
(6) What differentiates my prospect from these other companies?
(7) Do they have a target demographic?
(8) Does that demographic have the means to support the product?
(9) Where does the commercial community stand, do Fortune 500 Companies want to reach the prospect's target demographic?
(10) Can the prospect deliver an effective avenue for the major corporations to reach this market?
(11) Do they have sponsors?
(12) What's the possible impact of their primary competition & will my prospect have the lead in the market?
(13) Does this prospect have management with a proven track record of not only running a company but actually bringing a company to market, making it successful & profiting from this endeavor.
And most importantly one personal question,,,
(14) Do I have the discipline, willingness & conviction to maintain a large core position in this company when I identify it.
After todays review I feel good about my continued accumulation. Rumors are that I'm not the only one buying!

we have no way to know at this point about this story about the Viacom purchase.
I have a feeling that it may be true and that Viacom is coming down and shutting her up.
a moderator has no way of knowing if the rumour is real or not and therefore would not delete the message. Something forced him to delete it.
the authorities would not act that fast I don't believe.
but you can be damned sure that if this rumour where true and Viacom wanted it shut up they would jump on it right away with some very high priced lawyers. The moderator would have no choice but to delete it.
You never know they may be the ones making all the large buys of shares this past week. there was one day this week that we hit over 600 million shares and most of it was in a 1 hour window with some very large chunks. As Whiz stated earlier, about 30 million dollars would buy you a majority share in this company. so why not spend 20 million now, grab as much of the float as you can. the more they buy up at these prices the smaller the float becomes at buy out time.
why pay .38 for all the shares when you can buy as many as you can at these prices.
they could buy say 30% of the outstanding shares. make like they are buying us out for 5 billion or 1 billion or whatever. pay it out on what we think is the float but really not have to be paying out for 30% of the company. The deal looks bigger then it really is. and they only pay out say 60 -70% of what they agree to buy the company for as they already will own 30% of the company already at the cheaper prices.
this could very well be good info that leaked out. it could also be a set up to run the price on speculation on Monday so that someone can dump a large portion of shares next week. no real way to verify it.
I'm optimistically hoping for the first theory where, the speed at which the post was deleted is what has me wondering. If the post got to widely distributed, that would draw to much attention to Viacom and i would think that they would want to be flying under the radar on this one if this rumour has any legs to it.

It could have been Frank knowing a rumor might queer the deal so to speak. LOL!
Joking aside I think it was Frank! Almost sure of it! More sure of that than I am that it's Viacom buying in! On that I just know somebody's putting up alot of cash.

I still believe Viacom would be the one to benifit most! And the fact that the "rumor" post was pulled within hours of it being online give this rumor real juicy credability.

In order for a major corporation to justify buying a pinksheet company to their share holders they would have to demonstrate that they were not just able to do Due Dilligence but in fact did the DD & found the target to be "Finacially Sound".
My Money is firmly bet that the float is smaller & that SOMEONE whether it be Viacom or whomever is buying the pure living $h!t out of this puppy!

There is a lot of talk about an early week PR... but my hopes are not real high that it will be what we are wanting to hear....
My guess (IMHO) is that we will get an update about the NCTA conf.... 1) Securing Programming deals... we already know about the Oxygen deal 2) Exclusive Interview... I don't think it would propel the PPS upward and 3) Acquired high level talent.. we already know about the former CNN producer to produce the GMGA show and then Pridevision CEO....we already know these things!
Here is the IR posting....
As the NCTA Show wraps up, we are thrilled with the outcome. We have secured programming deals, been exclusively interviewed by national news programs and acquired high level talent from our competitors. Q's management held a champagne reception on Monday evening that was attended by more than two hundred cable executives. Needless to say, we were a hit.

>>The funny thing about the BET, they never made a dime. They never posted a profit and they sold for what? 5 billion?!?!<<
>>So it is highly unlikely that we can ever pass an audit. We can pass a financial audit we cannot pass an Edgar audit on the shareholder base.<<
...was it ever really a concern to Q that we could ever possibly get off the pinks...?? what would Q actually need to be absorbed by another company's offer..?? a financial audit..?
Rene: As you know when TMM was purchased we purchased a shell company and we then filled the shell up with assets that we had like the network. Unfortunately for us the shell that we bought was not as clean as it had been represented to us when we bought it. So it is highly unlikely that we can ever pass an audit. We can pass a financial audit we cannot pass an Edgar audit on the shareholder base. So it is very unlikely that we are going to get off the pinks for quite some time. However, that doesn't mean we aren't looking around to go and see maybe some innovative way to get off the pink sheets and get onto an exchange but it is too early for me to answer that. besides, there is a lot of work to be done and I don't want to be quoted as saying, "we're going to be off within a certain period of time."
Frank Olsen: The numbers jive. See you have to understand, we consider we'll be worth 5 billion in 5 years, because that's based on sales of other channels. You have to take the Black Entertainment Network. You have to take the Bass Channels. Let's take the Golf Channel. You have the QVC Home Shopping Network, and you take sales of Bravo. All the niche' channels; Sundance. You take all the niche' channels and you see what their average length is. The average length is 3 years and then they're bought out and made offers to buyout. The funny thing about the BET, they never made a dime. They never posted a profit and they sold for what? 5 billion?!?!

Just a thought but I don't think you guys have read enough into the significance of being on Oxygen... Hint: Oprah, Ellen, Rosanne....
if you don't think all 3 of them are well aware of the "NEW" program on "their" channel I think you are mistaken.
Now we just need to show up between Ellen and Rosanne :>)Kind of a Q sandwich!

Good find Whiz. Personally I am not to crazy about Marketwatch board though for QBID. Quite the pump and bash Party goes on there. Some clown said he had 182 million shares and still adding. When the price was dropping he pumping like crazy. Some of the stuff ended up being made up.As for the bashers over their,they post about 1 in 5. This board is an oasis compared to over at MW.

Well if anything this adds more credence to the Viacom rumors or the thought there is something big coming that just hasnt been announced yet.
The types of people that have joined Q lately dont go to work for some no carrier available pinksheet company unless they are told of dealings, partners or relationships that we are not privvy to yet.
I do not believe for one second that Q has even a portion of the money in house that they are spending on recruiting the talent and to carry on the promotions they have currently.
I am not going to say its Redstone's checking account behind this, but it is most definitely someones.
Eisner is bored these days, maybe he found a new hobby. LOL

So what is she saying? Is she capable of getting us a carrier?
Go QBID!!!!!! We Will See Green Tomorrow Posted by Pennies to Dollars on :
Q Television is obviously getting funding from someone with a substantial amount of money. You don't just leave your job with one network where you play an integral role in the continuation and further development of the organization for a lesser one. Additionally, you don't make a cold call to an up and running network (PrideVision) with hopes to buy them out. It is self-evident that Q Television's funding is not coming from their subscribers. While it's unclear to me where this money is coming from, I will say that my opinion is that we are seeing the beginning of a new wave for Q. Holding long and strong - the best is yet to come!
Posted by suzainiee on :
Yes, PTD. I wonder how long Carol worked with Here!
Posted by permanentjaun on :
The PR on Here!'s website that announced the hiring of Ms. Hinnant is February 23rd, 2005. So from then till todays date is 7.5 weeks or so. That is extremely quick to leave a position of such importance. Look deeper. Matt

From another forum; 2day on the newyork times business TALKING ABOUT LOGO
hen Paul Colichman began developing Here, his company's new cable service aimed at the gay market, he heard the same question over and over.
"Everybody asked me if the channel was going to feature pornography," said Mr. Colichman, 42, whose company, Regent Entertainment, produces films and television programming. His answer was and is an emphatic no.
And while his company's programming may not look entirely like American Pie - a show being promoted this month is called "Adored: Diary of a Male Porn Star" - Mr. Colichman said his channel was intended for mainstream gay Americans.
"We are not out at bars cruising for anonymous sex," he said. "We are generally at home with our partners, taking care of a leaking roof and transporting the cat to the vet because she is coughing. What the gay community lacks is the same type of general entertainment that everybody else has."
The gay, bisexual and transsexual communities are about to get a large supply of that programming. Viacom, the nation's largest owner of cable networks, is finally set to start Logo, its own advertiser-supported network aimed at the same market. The debut, originally scheduled for mid-February, is now set for June 30.
Both Here and Logo come on the heels of popular mainstream shows like "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" on Bravo and "Will and Grace" on NBC. Although these shows are not aimed at the gay market, the fact that they have succeeded indicates that Americans increasingly accept gay culture, despite some opposition to gay marriage.
The question for television executives is how best to reach the gay audience without alarming a cable business already skittish over decency issues. Mr. Colichman scored a coup last week when Comcast and Cox Communications, two of the nation's leading cable companies, agreed to distribute Here as part of their video-on-demand offerings, making Here, which went on the air 18 months ago, available to 40 million cable and satellite homes.
Mr. Colichman says he thinks he has an easier road because cable systems do not have to make Here universally available.
By contrast, Logo is being offered as a basic cable channel and has only gotten access to 10 million homes. Last week at a cable industry conference, Nicole Browning, president of MTV Networks' affiliate sales and marketing unit, said that selling Logo had been an "eye-opening" experience. She said that one senior cable operator told her during a Logo presentation, "There are no gays here." Another one said, "If we launch that network here, I will personally resign," she said.
Viacom has pulled out its big guns to develop Logo, including Brian Graden, the president of MTV Networks who is credited with the success of "The Osbournes" and "The Real World." Despite initial misgivings by the industry, "at the end of the day, people recognized that it is a business and this is an audience that can be served and people can make money doing it," Mr. Graden said.
Mr. Colichman says he does not think it is so easy. "The numbers tell the story," he said. "The real story is that a basic cable channel that deals with the gay community is risky. Forgetting major metropolitan areas, in most systems in the U.S., if they say we are going to have a gay channel that any kid can watch, it will trigger controversy."
"I think it is very brave of Viacom to go down that road of an advertiser-supported gay channel," he said, adding, "you need the muscle of a Viacom," which can package Logo with such popular channels as MTV and Nickelodeon. For now, Viacom is promoting Logo on its own.
Here's package will not feature "heavy-handed message films or 'coming out' films," Mr. Colichman said. The menu will include a series on gay parenting and a gothic horror program. The programs being promoted on Here's Web site yesterday included "Tides of War," a naval action show, but also the porn star diary and "Goldfish Memory," which was described as featuring "an eclectic maze of sexually explorative young characters."
Mr. Colichman said, "We are serving a diverse community, but nothing that approaches pornography."
As to Logo, it is offering original series including "My Fabulous Gay Wedding" which "challenges about-to-be-married gay and lesbian couples to fulfill a long-held wish to have the wedding of their dreams," the company's statement says. Viacom describes "Cruiser" as a series whose characters are "a happy couple celebrating 20 years together, the newly out man from Iowa with his mom and lesbians looking for love."
"We talk to so many gay people and they keep coming back to the notion of a 'home,' " Mr. Graden said.

Viacom, which has not disclosed its budget for Logo, is also producing first-person documentaries that depict the diversity of what is known as the L.G.B.T. communities (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender). There will be one about gay Republicans (23 percent of the community identifies as Republican) and one about the gay rodeo circuit. Viacom calls the latter show "a traveling fund-raiser where gays and lesbians put their own spin on the Wild West."
Mr. Graden and other Viacom executives have said that they do not expect strong negative reactions to the channel.
"These are not new images," Mr. Graden said of many of the films Logo has acquired for broadcast. "Our business model may be new by aggregating the films, but the images are not."
Regardless of attitudes toward gay marriage, 89 percent of Americans support equal employment opportunity for gays and lesbians and 60 percent of voters favor legal recognition for same-sex couples, according to Gallup surveys, said Howard Buford, chief executive of Prime Access, a multicultural advertising agency.
So far Logo has signed up three advertisers: Orbitz, Subaru and Paramount Pictures, which is owned by Viacom. Though the number had not increased since February, Bob Witeck of Witeck-Combs Communications, which specializes in marketing and public relations in gay markets and is advising Viacom, said that was partly because advertisers had not yet seen the programming.
Mr. Colichman said he had considered an advertiser-supported network but gave up after talking to advertisers.
"Straight people have a stereotypical view of gays: we are either out at bars having anonymous sex or working as a hairstylists or decorators," Mr. Colichman said. "They don't want to do anything that disrupts the stereotypes. Showing gays in normal relationships or jobs, or as a family with a child, disrupts that."
Mr. Colichman and his business partner, Stephen P. Jarchow, invested their own capital and borrowed against Regent's film library to start the channel.
To promote it, "we are sponsoring over 50 gay and lesbian film festivals, gay bowling leagues, softball and scuba diving clubs, as well as dozens of gay and lesbian pride parades," Mr. Colichman said. "We must be the proudest people on earth."

dilution.....sorry to rain on the parade, but, with all the great news recently, and the high caliber additions to Q, AND the pps not moving....simply means dilution....there are so many shares available and being traded, it can't move....supply and demand....I hope I'm wrong....and no, I'm not a basher..I hold 1.5 mill strong...I've asked this question in the past, and was attacked.....this is MY opinion....I hope we see the ultimate GREEN, but I think Q is handing out shares to all new employees, like candy, and causing the low PPS....GLTA..and, I HOPE I"M WRONG!...
Posted by permanentjaun on :
Dilution is not the reason. The reason is daytraders.
The whole point of IR Richard Brown is to not keep us informed about QBID and QTN. Richard was hired to bring in large investors capable of putting in hundreds of thousands of dollars if not millions into the company.
Think about it. Are there enough small time investors, less than 5 million shares, entering QBID each day to keep the pps stable or raise the pps? Also consider that many investors are also swing traders and will get out during the runs. There are also the investors that lose faith and just take their money out of QBID for their own reasons.
So then how is it the day traders fault and not dilution? Day traders are the only people causing the runs and falls. Most people that play the pinks, let alone pennies, are day traders looking to turn a quick 100% or so. Not to say that todays pr was fluff, but it's not the one that most of the people are waiting for. They want that carrier pr. What is going to be more dissappointing to you all is when we get the carrier pr, it runs, then falls back to similar levels that we're at now.
That is how I see things happening unless we get a share count and off the pinks. I can safely say that once we get a share audit that it won't take much for Q to start reporting and at least get on the otcbb. One possibility, however, is that Richard may have other large investors sitting on the sidelines either waiting for the share audit or the pps to break .01. At the moment that is what I see will help QBID hold a pps with some stability.
Anyways, news comes, the day traders dump the money in the pull the money out. The pr's that don't move the pps just don't spark any interest from the day traders. Us longs get excited because they're big steps in building a reputable network but as a day trader the pr's just aren't the ones. With all the other news plays out there it is tough for QBID to compete day to day with other companies pr's. I don't see dilution. Matt

Marty,
Question for you and I am not bashing you, do you think that high end caliber people that are joining Q would do it specifically for shares and a bit of cash? With the addition today to Q, jumping ship from HERE,do you think she would do it for a bit of cash and shares?
The only way I can think she would is she being paid a big dollar from a backer for Q or the shares she retains has been promised to hit a certain level by a certain time.
After seeing everything that is going on in the last 3 to 6 months, IMHO dilution is far from the answer.
quote:Originally posted by Marty: dilution.....sorry to rain on the parade, but, with all the great news recently, and the high caliber additions to Q, AND the pps not moving....simply means dilution....there are so many shares available and being traded, it can't move....supply and demand....I hope I'm wrong....and no, I'm not a basher..I hold 1.5 mill strong...I've asked this question in the past, and was attacked.....this is MY opinion....I hope we see the ultimate GREEN, but I think Q is handing out shares to all new employees, like candy, and causing the low PPS....GLTA..and, I HOPE I"M WRONG!...
Posted by djequipment on :
There may be some dilution involed but I certainly don't think that shares are being heaped upon these new execs and then the execs are turning right around and flipping the shares.
Wouldn't they be holding from these pps levels in order to rake in some serious dough??

here! Today, Q Tomorrow
By John Eggerton -- Broadcasting & Cable, 4/11/2005 4:50:00 PM
Fledgling gay and lesbian cable network Q Television NEtwork has hired Carol Hinnant, formerly vice president of affiliate sales for rival here! TV, to be its VP, affiliate sales and marketing.
Hinnant's resume also includes stints at Jones Intercable, Great American Country, and HBO.
Q Tv last week announced it has bought time on cable net Oxygen to promote its programming with a morning half-hour at 5:30-6, looking to help boost its base beyond the several thousand paying customers it has through its carriage deal with RCN.
That will now be Hinnant's challenge as well.

I have no doubt that she has been given shares in "Q" and frankly she would be a fool not to want shares as a part of her salary. IMO if a employee is given shares then it is in their best interest to promote the company, make it work.
The more "Q" makes the more she stands to gain. Example: William Shatner with Priceline, when he started he was given a large chunk of shares and very little money. Well enough said about that deal.The shares made him a bundle.
I for one do not believe that she would have left Here unless she knew that "Q" was going to make it and she would make a hell of alot more money with Frankie Baby
She will get rich and so will I so just sit back and let it happen
GO QBID!!!!! Bring On The Green Tomorrow

Great explanation Matt. Also agree with you!
Posted by Rich735 on :
Interesting chat between florist and Zeus.(On IHUB) Florist makes me very optimistic about Q. He speaks from the side the network is intended for. I hope all the GLBT community feels the way he does.
florist, I totally agree with you. Q is laying some great groundwork to become a truly fantastic station and resource for the gay/lesbian community. I am watching it everyday, and I for one love Q. I have not been impressed with network gay shows. After all, most of the gays playing the roles are straight - what a joke huh! Q is run by gays, everyone on the Q original shows are gay. So IMO there is no comparison. GLBT people are finally going to have a voice with QTN. Also, as they stated on Q-live, no one is going to tell Q what commercials they can or cannot run. Unfortunately, Logo is going to be monitored by viacom who wouldn't run the commercial for the church, was it Metropolitan Church. I'm sorry even though I have seen it a hundred times on Q I can't remember. That is what happens when you are an old dyke like me. But, florist you are totally right our little train "The QTN" is growing up very Quickly, and yes it sure can, and will be the premier gay channel for our community!!
Zeus, as gay folk we understand the BS from the straight media. The networks only focusing on the most outlandish gay stereotypes at pride parades, the fear that was spread to millions concerning aids without the positive things that were being done within our community. I can go on, but my point is what you said so perfectly in your post.
After all, most of the gays playing the roles are straight - what a joke huh! Q is run by gays, everyone on the Q original shows are gay. So IMO there is no comparison. GLBT people are finally going to have a voice with QTN.
This for me makes all the difference in the world.

NEW! Q on the Oxygen network for 6 months daily! 5:30-6 am time slot starting this Thurs, April 14th...... thanks to skunks once again for posting this on IHUB... Posted by: skunksyard In reply to: None Date:4/11/2005 8:37:34 PM Post #of 99142
no ads in B&C this week (4/11/05) but small writeup
Q TV Gets Hit of Oxygen
Here! the most widely distributed gay-TV programmer, says it has signed deals for Comcast and Cox to carry its programming on-demand that will boost Here!'s reach to 40 million households. (At last count, the pay-TV service was claiming 30 million).
Meanwhile, fledgling Q Television is buying its route to visibility. The tiny pay network signed a six-month deal with Oxygem to run its show Q on the Move from 5:30 to 6 a.m. daily starting April 14.
That will boost QTV's reach from several thousand paid customers (who get it via RCN) to the more than 53 million households that receive Oxygen-J.F.
Posted by Doctoall on :
PrideVision has created a new website and OutTv now has its own website. As we all know OutTV will start broadcasting tomorrow 04/12/05
Waiting to see if any of "Q" programming appears on their schedule. They only have 3 days of programming listed.
GO QBID!!!!

Ligge!
Isn't something? I couldn't agree more.
Cream of the crop coming to work for QBID as though they're really going to leave secure, big salaried jobs for any kind of risk what so ever.
There just can't be any doubt left! Deals have been made and benchmarks we do not even know about have all ready been reached or there would never have been the funding for the Road Show.

Yep! Just a thought. What if it's Here that paying the bills & we merge with them to form a united front to compete with Viacom. They're flush with cash from a very successful IPO last year.
The plot thickens!
Posted by Penny-Trader on :
I agree. just another thought on this.
think back to David Letterman and the top 10 list.
the conversation back then was the surprise that they choose Q TV. everyone thought that it would have been more likely that LOGO would have gotten mentioned on a Viacom channel.
add this to the rumour. this could show just how long this deal has been in the works.
It all adds up if you want to take the time and go back at all the prs in the last 3 months.
there are hints all over all you have to do is read them with the open mind.
They are telling us all kinds of things with out saying them.
here's another thing to think about.
Today's pr we have hired this individual from Here! TV. Why would someone leave a company that has signed deals and carriers to come to Q who everyone thinks is shaky, unless they are convinced that they are not shaky and that they can better themselves.
This tells me that this individual has seen what the deal is and knows that things are about to be really great over here. better then it is over tHere!
just my thought for the day. take it for what it is worth.

In order for a major corporation to justify buying a pinksheet company to their share holders they would have to demonstrate that they were not just able to do Due Diligence but in fact did the DD & found the target to be "Financially Sound".
My Money is firmly bet that the float is smaller & that SOMEONE whether it be Viacom or whomever is buying the pure living $h!t out of this puppy!
Yes! Someone is buying big on the days that you see big volume & decline in share price!
I'm a firm believer that Frank is reducing the float via buy-back! Again, it begs the question, WHO's backing his play? I still believe Viacom would be the one to benefit most! And the fact that the "rumor" post was pulled within hours of it being online give this rumor real juicy credibility.
In so much as who had it pulled,,,
It could have been Frank knowing a rumor might queer the deal so to speak. LOL!
All joking aside I think it was Frank! Almost sure of it! More sure of that than I am that it's Viacom buying in! On that issue I just know somebody's putting up alot of cash. As far as Viacom is concerned I will say that I'm the first person to float the idea that Viacom would buy us out but that does not mean I'm right!
Now consider this, I hazard to guess that the mere absence of a PR to clarify this issue early Monday will fuel the rumor more!
One thing we all know (I think) or at least "I" know for a fact,,,
There will come a day that Frank sells QBID!
That is what he does!!! He developes the idea, brings it to market polishes it up & SELLS IT!!!!
There does exist a fat block of shares they can not access! MINE!
Because there is one tiny little FACT that I will never overlook!

the chart has decidely taken on a negative trend... it is not strong but negative none the less.
I am thinking that it will drop down to about 24 or 25, and then start back upward.... I hope that it doesn't fall down to the lower bolli band, but it is a possibility. IMHO, I am guessing that it will take at least 3 or 4 more days to complete this downward trend before even thinking about turning around.
Once I see the MACD start to bottom out, and the stochs start to flatten... I will begin to look to put my $$$ back in and increase my already 2 million strong core position.
Of course, this is all my opinion and is does not take into account the grand slam PR about carriers that everyone has been waiting for! If we get that, then all bets are off on what this will do!

All three need Qs programing!
We may very well see QBID programs on all three & QBID will make a mint being the driving force behind all these companies!

Has the question come up today regarding mood of transition on the new employee of Q..?? It is just an observation but the idea of someone in an executive position just does not change sides mid stream because they see brighter skys across the street.. besides risking company holdings.. 401ks.. ect.. one whos vertues are based on respect.. dependability.. and trust amongst her peers and business dealings/associates does not burn bridges to be labeled just the opposite... especially the new position being pretty much the same format which would be dealing with mostly the same people.. so the question is how does Here TV feel about it.. ?? was she placed..? and if so ones mind could wander wildly with scenarios.. and if not placed then what did she see to up n change pace mid stream..?? the statement of a unique programming style just doesn't give me enough reason to risk change in ones life especially a nobody gay network street label for Q and touted as not in the same league as the big boys.. this is almost like a mistro is behind the curtain orchestrating moves.. and to me this mistro has the ability to mold Here TV.. 200+ execs at the conference.. pridevision.. and Q.. i don't care how good Q management say they are a player such as this does not come over and join the party on promises.. a play is at hand and is being unraveled.. so to me this exec either left on bad terms ####### off Here TV for what seen unraveling warrents such a move.. or Here TV placed this exec to enable a smoother transition into the fold for knowing the waters already.. either way very interesting indeed..

I have to say though, if HERE! wanted Q, they could most likely walk in the front door put $10US cash on the counter and own it. So it does really amke you wonder whya nd how she got to be there.
But look at some of Franks other choices, like the alleged power hitter from THE APPRENTICE he hired who turns out to be a assisant director ( ie goffer ) you have to wonder if this latest addition was someone that HERE! just cut as dead weight?

Q owns 80% of Pridevision
Here! is our only so called "competition" (lacks programming of Q)
Viacom wanted to start a GLBT network 4 years ago and didn't...wants back in. Doesn't like to build things...just likes to buy them.
Given the above, Viacom picks up Q, which results in picking up Pridevision. With that type of backing, Here! can no longer compete and knows it. But, it still has carriers in place and, IMHO, some pretty good backing.
Our new assistant director sees the writing on the wall (or the writing is pointed out by...let's say Viacom) and moves to Q where there is the most potential for a successful GLBT network.
If Viacom (or any other large media empire) wants to have a monopoly on GLBT television, now's their chance.
I may look at this through rose colored glasses..chit, I don't know any more than anyone else here. I see a product, a market, and the potential. IMHO, I think there are folks at Viacom that are just as smart (well, almost) as me (lol!!)
GLTY and all investors in QTN!!

Posted by kissme on :
Since QBID is targeting a huge untapped market of $600 billion and 30mil gay population, I would consider it's a national TV network. It will become an international network as well with the direction it's going...
Posted by kissme on :
IMO, I would not rule out Viacom buy-out rumor. Buy-out has been Viacom's profession and Viacom was at least once Frank's client. The big question is where all the huge $$$$ behind QBID comes from and why this pink sheet start-up could attract famous people to join their team ??? Bashers should slap their dirty mouth every time they label QBID a "scam". Actually bashers are flippers/day-traders who try to make the daily bread and they'll struggle with that dirty game until the end of their life while long investors enjoy their early retirement in glory...

NY Post today, Page Six:
April 12, 2005 -- OPRAH Winfrey surprised 100 editorial and advertising staffers of O, The Oprah Magazine, by giving them $5,000 bonuses on Sunday night. The talk show queen, celebrating the fifth anniversary of her vanity mag at the Park Avenue penthouse of Hearst Magazines president Cathie Black, told her grateful underlings: "I figured I would give you five things you could really use." Best of all, the bonuses were tax-free. Winfrey was criticized last year when, after she gave away 276 cars to an audience of her show, the winners discovered they had to fork over $7,000 in taxes to keep their $28,500 Pontiac G-Sixes.

56 million sold at 27 after hours....
I still believe that the MM's will slowly push this down lower. I have firmly decided to buy back in if it gets to 25. I will get back my 3mill and then some....
As far as the buy out rumors... I don't buy them..at least not yet anyway. Viacom I believe, wont touch Q until they have all the dirty shell problems taken care of. Why would they buy something that could come back and bite them in the butt.... unless of course, they make a low ball offer to accept the liabilities that come along with Q as it is right now. That is what typically happens in every buyout I have been a part of. The buyer estimates how much money it will take to clean up the mess and they chop that right off the fair market value of the company.
I honestly would not want viacom to do the buy out just yet, but that is just my opinion. I want the viacom buy out to occur after Q cleans everything up and maybe moves off the pinks.... then we will be getting primo value for our shares!

NY Post today, Page Six:
April 12, 2005 -- OPRAH Winfrey surprised 100 editorial and advertising staffers of O, The Oprah Magazine, by giving them $5,000 bonuses on Sunday night. The talk show queen, celebrating the fifth anniversary of her vanity mag at the Park Avenue penthouse of Hearst Magazines president Cathie Black, told her grateful underlings: "I figured I would give you five things you could really use." Best of all, the bonuses were tax-free. Winfrey was criticized last year when, after she gave away 276 cars to an audience of her show, the winners discovered they had to fork over $7,000 in taxes to keep their $28,500 Pontiac G-Sixes.

It may be possible a lot of clean up has been completed.Because of no reporting, we will never know.

I still believe that the MM's will slowly push this down lower. I have firmly decided to buy back in if it gets to 25. I will get back my 3mill and then some....
As far as the buy out rumors... I don't buy them..at least not yet anyway. Viacom I believe, wont touch Q until they have all the dirty shell problems taken care of. Why would they buy something that could come back and bite them in the butt.... unless of course, they make a low ball offer to accept the liabilities that come along with Q as it is right now. That is what typically happens in every buyout I have been a part of. The buyer estimates how much money it will take to clean up the mess and they chop that right off the fair market value of the company.

Wouldn't getting off the pinks mean we will have to reverse, and lose many of our shares? for the price to really go up. There are way , way to many shares out there. I am all for the Q, and really believe it will work out. People post that they bought 10 mill or whatever and think great, this puppy goes to 1 dollar and yippie. The way the market looks it still seems like maybe .10 is the max it will go to. I also want to see it reach .50 or 1.oo or more, but being realistic to probably won't. Not trying to be negative, just trying to be real. I wouldn't mind if we get bought out for even .20 and the shareholders sell at that.

No we would not have to reverse. To get onto the otcbb we would just have to start reporting.
If we want to get onto Nasdaq we're either going to need a reverse or a huge buyback of some sort. On that market they require a certain price. I believe for a small cap we'd need to list at $5 and then later on maintain a price above $1. Matt

Viacom is the type of company that will come in and write a check when the competition gets too tough. With all the problems they have had lanching thier network and all the opportunity that Q and Pride bring to the table, and all the contacts and connections the new marketing girl bring to the table(she has already done it once with the same type of company)it would not surprise me that they are sitting back waiting for the the right opportunity to strike! This company is the EXACT same way that BET started and Viacom came in and wrote a very, very big check and the key people were all retained and to my knowledge, the president and founder is still controlling things daily!!! And lets face it, its all about the Benjamins and if Frank gets a big enough check he has already stated that he would take it if everything lines up! IMO this stock will explode once they start getting some serious money kicking in, however, I hope someone doesnt get creative and decide on some BS split to jack things around. Until then all we can do is sit back and be very patient and things will happen!
Just remember, someone once said "Build it and they will come"

Q Television Network Updates from the NTCA Wednesday April 13, 1:56 pm ET President and CEO Frank Olsen Interviewed on CNN Headline News
PALM SPRINGS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 13, 2005--Q Television Network (Pink Sheets: QBID - News) announced today that the company had many great successes at the NTCA (National Telecommunications Cooperative Association) last week. President and CEO of the Network, Frank Olsen, was exclusively interviewed on CNN Headline News April 4th at the conference, where Mr. Olsen discussed many of the successes the network has had since it launched in October 2004.
"I was very pleased with the outcome of the NTCA," said Frank Olsen. "We met with many executives from cable carriages that we had been hoping to speak with. We were also very pleased that Carol Hinnant accepted our offer to become Vice President of Affiliate Sales and Marketing while at the conference. Our booth was received very well by both the cable executives and the media who attended the show."
"We were thrilled to discuss being a premium channel for a new large telephony company that is going to enter into the cable arena later this year," Olsen continued. "We are still in discussions with them, and can't discuss the name of the company at this time."
About Q Television Network: This television network was organized to create and develop a network devoted to providing television programming for the gay and lesbian community. While the company expects much of its subscriber base to be comprised of members of the gay and lesbian population, management also believes that quality programming about the gay and lesbian experience, designed to entertain, educate and inform, will attract many other segments of the viewing public. The company's programming will be available on a subscription basis to those desiring its programming. The network will broadcast 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Providing distribution via satellite ensures availability of the network across the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Q Television Network is the Network for the Gay Games VII.

Posted by Monopoly Money on :
actually i shall correct you on this.
With new multimedia technology coming out such as VOIP and WIMAX, a telephony company might not be a bad choice to get assocaited with. Just because they are a Telephony company dosent mean they have other avenues of revenue. Ma bell was not just a "TELEPHONY" company, nor is bellsouth, Sprint, to name a few.
Other new technologies. Recently People are rediscovering ways to transmit data faster and with the same infastructure or less, how does this affect QBID you ask well i shall tell you. I read an article about data being transfered through the current copper lines at speeds that will rival most Broadband outputs, im not talking about commcast(sp) or TimeWarner but im talking about speeds of T3's or DS3's. Basically kids rewrote the compression code to allow dialup to transfer ungodly amounts of data quickly.
Again how you ask how this affects QBID and ME. Well, if you have a network infastructure already inplace, Network capacility via a Telephony company in every household and on top of that able to put through great picture quailty through wires instead of the "air" then yes i can see this as a good move
This is all based on technology that may or may not be realeased but the point of this is dont think of it as just a "telephony" company
Internet/networks. ITs what everythings going to, think about it, you can network your fridge,stove,microwave and most of your home appliances, so the next phase will be broadcasting companies to pipe television shows through that network, only hold back is it takes an ungodly amount of bandwidth to accomplish this and with HDTV out you can triple that amount. But with new networking technologies comesing out and bandwidth getting faster and cheaper and ISP's (telephony) companies being at the core of all this ......
just an observation and pointing out the possible value of this deal:)

They were in SF and the only new company that I can think about is SureWest, they are a telephone company who just moved to cable vision (Digital) and are giving Comcast a run for their money. In my home area Surewest just finished laying billions of dollars worth of fiber optic cable.
In looking at their channel line up they do not have "Here" but they do have Oxygen. The local Comcast does not carry Oxygen but they do carry Here.Surewest serves Northern California to also include the SF bay area, with eyes on national coverage.
New Networks Seek Gay, Lesbian Audiences By DAVID BAUDER, AP Television Writer 2 hours ago
NEW YORK - Three new TV networks catering to gay and lesbian viewers are trying to establish themselves and all say they support one another - at least publicly.
Competition breeds interest and shows doubters the business is viable, said Frank Olsen, president of the Q Television Network. He once applied the same theory when he owned four gay and lesbian bars near each other in Seattle.
"I think there's room for all three of us," said Olsen, whose network is the underdog of the trio. "We're different types of channels, just like you have ABC, NBC and CBS."
Sure to be the most visible is MTV Networks' Logo, scheduled to start as a basic cable network on June 30. Q and Here are both pay services operating now and available to a limited number of viewers.
The gay and lesbian community has been underserved by the media and these channels are long overdue, said Damon Romine, entertainment media director for the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.
"There's definitely an audience out there that is hungry to see their stories being told," he said. "We've seen this with the tremendous success of `Queer as Folk' and `The L Word.'"
Logo has two original series that will be ready this summer. One is "Noah's Arc," about a black gay screenwriter from California and his friends, and the other is "My Fabulous Gay Wedding," a comic makeover reality show.
Otherwise, Logo will rely heavily on movies and documentaries until it is better established. Logo has acquired the rights to films such as "Angels in America" and "Moulin Rouge," and has documentaries about a gay rugby team in Chicago and the gay rodeo circuit.
"It will be programmed to the sensitivity of a basic cable audience," said Nicole Browning, president of MTV Networks' affiliate sales and marketing unit.
Logo's ride to reality hasn't exactly been smooth. It spent years on parent company Viacom's back burner, and already has seen its starting date postponed from February. This year's delay was partly to get more programming in place but was also because it only had agreements to be in 2 million to 3 million of the nation's nearly 110 million television homes.
Browning was quoted recently as saying she had found some resistance to the idea of a gay and lesbian network in meetings with cable or satellite providers. One executive threatened resignation if Logo were launched in the company's territory. She downplayed that in a subsequent interview.
"While there may be some initial trepidation, once they really understand what we're doing, the breadth of the audience and the breadth of the programming, they understand there is a great business opportunity," she said.
She said Logo will begin in 10 million homes, a significant percentage of the roughly 45 million homes with digital service. Logo isn't trying to reach analog homes.
Political trepidation is one of the reasons Paul Colichman, Here's CEO, believes his business plan is superior. Interested viewers can subscribe to Here full time, for an evening or for individual programs.
"Unless you want the channel, you don't receive it," he said.
Colichman claims ownership of the largest gay and lesbian film library in the country, with such titles as "The Crying Game," "Longtime Companion" and "Gods and Monsters," which he produced. He has original series on gay families, how gay couples met and a supernatural soap opera called "Dante's Cove."
"Look at HBO and Showtime and what they do and compare it to a basic cable channel, and that's where you will see the difference between Here and Logo," he said.
Roughly 80 to 85 percent of homes with digital satellite or cable can order Here, he said.
But Browning noted there's a big difference in visibility between an advertiser-supported network like Logo, which will be seen continually in millions of homes, and a subscriber service whose audience is likely to only count in the thousands at any given time.
Q is aggressively marketing itself but, to date, is only available on the small RCN satellite service. Olsen said it would be available in 16 million homes by June. Olsen concedes his rivals have shut him out of the market for many films.
It has a documentary series, "In FoQus," which is preparing a tribute to Elizabeth Taylor, and a morning talk show which recently changed its name from "Good Morning Gay America" to "Gay Day" after representatives of ABC's "Good Morning America" threatened legal action, he said.
When Viacom announced it was going ahead with Logo, Olsen said he started getting phone calls from cable companies returned.
"Having a company like Viacom validate the niche automatically made the concept of a gay-oriented channel more viable," Colichman said.

OK folks lets look at this whole picture on Hinnant being hired and why she only lasted 7 weeks at Here!.... This could be a bad thing but I doubt it...Sometimes it doesnt take a genius or a somewhat fairly educated person to figure out that all the hype in the interview process and all the claims made under the sun are BS and that you have been lied to BADLY!! If you look at her background and exp I find it hard to believe that she walked into a small company like that and couldnt cut the mustard. What I see is a person that has a very very impressive tenure with the following companies and has more contacts then anybody could even begin to accumulate.
She worked at Jones Media who bought GAC (where she also worked), who has in excess of 5400 radio stations(160 million listeners),3900 cable TV systems(34 million viewers).
She also worked for HBO who is owned by Turner Broadcasting, who is owned by Time Warner(www.timewarner.com)...without the fact that Time Warner owns Turner,HBO,Showtime,AOL,Warner Bros,Time Magazine and many others globally, the fact remains that with HBO alone they reach 50 countries and close to 40 Million viewers!!!!
Put those two job tenures and list of contacts together(plus the 7 weeks at Here!,new ones she might not have had) and you got one heck of a start on the marketing game ahead of everyone else! Its all about who strikes first and I feel that Q has been very quiet and not attracting too much attention too quickly but when they strike its going to be very hard. Mark my words, one of the big players Will come in and pay hefty BEFORE the Gay Games because its all about advertising dollars in this business, and now that the name of MTV and Viacom are backing it look out!!!!!!!! Sorry for the long post but had to get my 2 cents in.

16 million homes by june...... Makes you wonder... we obvisouly have a carrier deal.... UP UP and away! Mark my words.. once this takes off it will hit a dollar within 6 months if that!
Posted by firefly on :
I forgot two important things:\ 1. If Oxygen is truly behind Q and its not hype,that will be the start we need and the backing because once Oprah gets on board it should be a done deal because first of all she is the Co-founder of Oxygen,and has been a very strong supporter of the GLBT community and herself does 22 million viewers per week. 2. I would not be surprised to see Comcast come in with a bid because they have been trying to spend some money for the last 18 months and will do pretty well with the Adelphia deal with Time Warner ($700 million) and they own E! TV and rtalking about dropping Howard Stern due to new mandates that might come down the pike and will need something very good to replace him. They are not afraid to take a chance and with this being a brand new,untapped market and having lots of money I wouldnt be shocked. E! has 78 million viewers in the U.S. alone and wants to expand into other markets and can advertise very heavy due to them owning the whole system.

*****just as advertisers and TV networks engage in their annual sales ritual known as "Upfronts", when companies commit their budgets to network programing.*****************
"Our advertisers are either creating budgets for new platforms,
Or
moving existing dollars to them," said Jason Hirschhorn, senior vice president at MTV Networks.
Mr. Hirschhorn declined to disclose the network's investment in the channel, although he said it was a substantial commitment that included the construction of a new studio for Overdrive.
MTV Overdrive will feature 15-second advertisements spliced into its programming, as well as sponsorships banners. Its early custormer, including Sony and Microsoft, are largely the same advertisers that patronise the flagship cable network."
......another broadband TVchannel
"Internet advertising rose by 21 per cent in the US last year to $7.4bn--well ahead of the 9.8 percent gain posted by the sector overall. This year's increase is forecast to more than 10bn. This has spurred companies such as The Washington Post, The New York Times, Dow Jones and others to make internet acquisitions in recent months."

Cable companies to push cellphones with WiFi?
Posted Apr 6, 2005, 12:18 PM ET by Peter Rojas Related entries: Cellphones, Wireless
Motorola CN620
Sprint CEO Gary Forsee is predicting that next year it’s going to be the cable companies, and not the wireless carriers themselves, that will be the first to really get behind cellphones with built-in WiFi that can make super cheap wireless VoIP calls when you’re at home (and within range of your wireless access point) and then automatically roam onto the wider cellular network when you’re anywhere else. More or less makes sense for the cable companies, since it’s just one more way they can convince people to sign up for giant packages that bundle together TV, Internet, VoIP, and wireless service, and Time Warner is already offering repackaged Sprint cellular service to some subscribers in Kansas City, Missouri. Not to be left out of the action, Comcast has confirmed they’re in discussions with several wireless carriers about offering some sort of cellphone service of their own.

I believe she was in the possition for 7 weeks but with the company longer.
either way she sees something worth leaving the security of a up and running company to come to a smaller startup company. My bet is that she is far more informed on the dealings of our company then what we know.

here is the part of that story that i like
"Otherwise, Logo will rely heavily on movies and documentaries until it is better established. Logo has acquired the rights to such films as "Angels in America" and "Moulin Rouge," and has documentaries about a gay rugby team in Chicago and the gay rodeo circuit.:
QTVN, original programming. Sports events produced by Q. Gay Games. Logo will have to pay Q to air these events. ESPN for the GLBT imo.

love this main stream media attention!the more the better! q is on the move!.this may be a little late comming but i have been thinking about this pride buy out offer and though it sounded great on the surface i was puzzeled? why would frank want to get his hands on here wich seems to be filled with gay porn,from the outset frank has maintained q would not be about gay porn but would would provide family programing designed to entertain,enlighten and inform. then out of the blue he makes a play for pride. first pride says theres no offer then they say not interested then they anounce out-tv a family oriented station free of gay porn filled with the very same types of shows q is offering.now heres my thought what if this whole out-tv thing is just what frank was after, what if pride spins off out-tv and q buys it as a stand alone station after its up and running on all of prides carriers, he could then change the name and piggyback into all of prides stations. i dont know,just looking at possibilities however far fetched. maybe it could`nt be done maybe pride sees a good plan in q and wants to copy it (look at the kind of programing they are talking about)whatever happens i believe frank will get this done one way or another.food for thought or just a good laugh. anyway i`m in and holding make or break! GLTA and have a good night!
Posted by buckwheatbob on :
This has become the "wait and see" game.Based on all the excellent DD here and a good game of connect the dots, ie:who is connected to who, doubt quicky fades.The only two questions I have which remain open to pretty much all is:
1/ Who is the backer for all the cash being pumped in? I know who we suspect, but need proof.
2/ If Q is going to take over the world,when will this happen and make at least the .10 mark +
Both questions only have speculatory answers to them presently.IMHO, I am not holding my breath for the begining of June, but I have a good feeling for some time in 2005.
I rub my kids heads for good luck, Q better hurry up before they go bald. LOL!
On another note, I think we will see low 2's before we see another rise in PPS. I am betting another 1,000,000 shares on it as that is my buy point to add to my collection.

BusinessWeek has learned that the nation's largest telecom provider is preparing to seek cable-TV franchises in parts of Texas and eight other states so that it can offer video in head-to-head competition with cable companies. The service would provide a powerful new source of competition in the pay-TV market, where most consumers have a choice of one local cable-TV company and two satellite operators.

I think the Qs been whittled pretty hard as of late and most holders are pretty core followers. Until an answer comes out about Oxygen today I think it will be quiet.
Infomercials are for failing or desperate companys, in my eyes, and ones that typically appeal only to the impulse buying insomniac. I personally hope we pulled it off there myself.

PALM SPRINGS, Calif., Apr 05, 2005 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Q Television Network (Pink Sheets: QBID) announced today that they have inked an agreement with Oxygen to publicize the network to national audiences.
Starting April 14, 2005, Q Television Network will air nationally for half an hour per day via the Oxygen Network.
"We are very pleased to have made this agreement to promote Q through Oxygen," said Frank Olsen, President and CEO of Q Television Network. "The number of inquiries from potential subscribers to national carriers has been staggering, and Q Television feels strongly that by using Oxygen to promote Q's programming we will strengthen our relationship with national carriers and their audiences."
So where's the beef, I do not see "Q" on the programming list and my e-mail to Oxygen have not been responded to.
Frank we need some answers!!!
Lomg and holding here, but curious about this PR Posted by Doctoall on :
The PPS is slipping at 0.0025. Come on Frank we need a strong PR
Long and holding and buying at these prices Posted by Sir Loin on :
I don't think Frank cares much about the stock owner. If he knew that the programing was not going to run on Oxygen, he should have said so.
Same old business, different day.

By DAVID BAUDER AP Television Writer NEW YORK (AP) - Three new TV networks catering to gay and lesbian viewers are trying to establish themselves and all say they support one another - at least publicly. Competition breeds interest and shows doubters the business is viable, said Frank Olsen, president of the Q Television Network. He once applied the same theory when he owned four gay and lesbian bars near each other in Seattle. “I think there’s room for all three of us,” said Olsen, whose network is the underdog of the trio. “We’re different types of channels, just like you have ABC, NBC and CBS.” Sure to be the most visible is MTV Networks’ Logo, scheduled to start as a basic cable network on June 30. Q and Here are both pay services operating now and available to a limited number of viewers. The gay and lesbian community has been underserved by the media and these channels are long overdue, said Damon Romine, entertainment media director for the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation. “There’s definitely an audience out there that is hungry to see their stories being told,” he said. “We’ve seen this with the tremendous success of `Queer as Folk’ and `The L Word.”’
MTV’s Logo Logo has two original series that will be ready this summer. One is “Noah’s Arc,” about a black gay screenwriter from California and his friends, and the other is “My Fabulous Gay Wedding,” a comic makeover reality show. Otherwise, Logo will rely heavily on movies and documentaries until it is better established. “It will be programmed to the sensitivity of a basic cable audience,” said Nicole Browning, president of MTV Networks’ affiliate sales and marketing unit. Logo has spent years on parent company Viacom’s back burner, and already has seen its starting date postponed from February. This year’s delay was partly to get more programming in place but was also because it only had agreements to be in 2 million to 3 million of the nation’s nearly 110 million television homes. Browning said Logo will begin in 10 million homes, a significant percentage of the roughly 45 million homes with digital service. Logo isn’t trying to reach analog homes.
Here’s Approach Political trepidation is one of the reasons Paul Colichman, Here’s CEO, believes his business plan is superior. Interested viewers can subscribe to Here full time, for an evening or for individual programs. “Unless you want the channel, you don’t receive it,” he said. Colichman claims ownership of the largest gay and lesbian film library in the country, with such titles as “The Crying Game,” “Longtime Companion” and “Gods and Monsters,” which he produced. He has original series on gay families, how gay couples met and a supernatural soap opera called “Dante’s Cove.” “Look at HBO and Showtime and what they do and compare it to a basic cable channel, and that’s where you will see the difference between Here and Logo,” he said. Roughly 80 to 85 percent of homes with digital satellite or cable can order Here, he said. But Browning noted there’s a big difference in visibility between an advertiser-supported network like Logo, which will be seen continually in millions of homes, and a subscriber service whose audience is likely to only count in the thousands at any given time.
Smallest: Q Q is aggressively marketing itself but, to date, is only available on the small RCN satellite service. Olsen said it would be available in 16 million homes by June. Olsen concedes his rivals have shut him out of the market for many films. It has a documentary series, “In FoQus,” which is preparing a tribute to Elizabeth Taylor, and a morning talk show which recently changed its name from “Good Morning Gay America” to “Gay Day” after representatives of ABC’s “Good Morning America” threatened legal action, he said. When Viacom announced it was going ahead with Logo, Olsen said he started getting phone calls from cable companies returned. “Having a company like Viacom validate the niche automatically made the concept of a gay-oriented channel more viable,” Colichman said.

I still believe that the MM's will slowly push this down lower. I have firmly decided to buy back in if it gets to 25. I will get back my 3mill and then some....
As far as the buy out rumors... I don't buy them..at least not yet anyway. Viacom I believe, wont touch Q until they have all the dirty shell problems taken care of. Why would they buy something that could come back and bite them in the butt.... unless of course, they make a low ball offer to accept the liabilities that come along with Q as it is right now. That is what typically happens in every buyout I have been a part of. The buyer estimates how much money it will take to clean up the mess and they chop that right off the fair market value of the company.
I honestly would not want viacom to do the buy out just yet, but that is just my opinion. I want the viacom buy out to occur after Q cleans everything up and maybe moves off the pinks.... then we will be getting primo value for our shares!

Thanks Ricardo, Here it is!
4/14/2005 - Oxygen
Dear QBID Investors,
We are very sorry for the confusion with QTelevision airing on the Oxygen Network this morning. We had extreme difficulties launching the spot through Oxygen and did not find out about it until very early this morning. This logistical problem will take three to four days to fix, but to ensure there will not be another delay; we will go live on April 21st. We have already purchased the air time with Oxygen for 31 days in May and 30 days in June, airing in two slots for ˝ hour a piece and can be viewed by any person who currently has the Oxygen Network in their home.
We recognize our investors are discouraged today and please understand we takes steps everyday to alleviate any anxieties you have concerning the success for QTelevsion by securing more of a foothold with carriers, talent, programming and media. We are still very much on track and have powerful resources at our disposal to attain the level of success both you and the whole Q staff feel we can achieve.
Sincerely,
Frank Olsen
I feel much better now! A little less mad...LOL

As you can see Pridevision is not without its carrier problems. OutTV appears to be getting the full coverage in Canada.
LETTER TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS:
As you hopefully know, we have recently rebranded PrideVision TV as a 24-hour gay adult entertainment channel HARD on PrideVision. We have also launched OUTtv, an exclusive lifestyle GLBT channel. The carriage of both channels has been met with enthusiasm by Rogers Cable, and other Canadian cable companies. It was our intention, and expectation, that other cable companies including Shaw Cable, and the Canadian satellite companies Bell ExpressVu and Star Choice, would at least continue to carry the rebranded PrideVision TV as a standalone pay television service, as would have been appropriate.
Instead, to our dismay, at the time of changeover on April 12th, these companies opted to provide their customers with OUTtv in the pay television slot. For your information, the carriage of OUTtv as part of Shaw Cable's, Bell ExpressVu's and Star Choice's "theme" packages, as we have been stating is mandatory, is the subject of a number of Complaints by us currently before the CRTC.
Please be assured that we are working with our lawyers to quickly remedy the current situation, and are confident you will have the programming you want in the very near future. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact your cable or satellite company to let them know how you feel about the situation. You are also encouraged to contact the CRTC (i.e. online at www.**********at "complaints and enquiries"). We will do our utmost to keep you posted on our progress as the situation evolves - please check our websites at www.pridevisiontv.com or www.outtv.ca.
We thank you for your patience and dedication as a PrideVision subscriber. Our commitment to bring you the best in GLBT programming is stronger than ever. Any assistance you can provide would be humbly received.
Wendy Donnan Director of Programming and Operations

You lost all credibility from me after this comment. For you to think that Frank Olsen makes a poor CEO because of his physical appearance not only tells me a lot about the person you are, but that you might actually fit your own description of the "low-life" as well. After all, that is the kind of remark I would expect from one to be completely honest with you. Remember, looks can be deceiving.

For some reason, I just thought about this couple:
A husband, being unhappy with his wife's mood swings, bought her a Mood Ring so he would be able to monitor her moods.
They discovered that when she's in a good mood, it turns green.
However, when she's in a bad mood, it leaves a big red mark on his forehead.
He should have bought a diamond.
Fly, hope you are feeling better. Posted by firefly on :

Question for you Nick,
If you dislike this stock so much, why do you post here? I can only think 1 reason, to bash. I don't believe it is out of the goodness of your heart. No offense but bashers seem to lurk. I am sure you can find more to do on the CMKX board. You and Legal Eagle would no doubt have some interesting conversation.

Why would I be sour? I've been trying to warn you guys about QBID forever, it's constant pump with no real potential Every gay network out there has the same potential as QBID It's funny how Frank says the stock will be worth a certain price in the future and all of a sudden fanbois show up out of the woodwork touting how great it is Show me some REAL DD instead of speculation, and I'll shutup

Looks are an indicator? I have an idea. How about you post your picture (a real one) and we will take a poll of everyone on this board to see how you rate. I think that would help clear up a few things.

You lost all credibility from me after this comment. For you to think that Frank Olsen makes a poor CEO because of his physical appearance not only tells me a lot about the person you are, but that you might actually fit your own description of the "low-life" as well. After all, that is the kind of remark I would expect from one to be completely honest with you. Remember, looks can be deceiving.
But looks are usually dead on If you can't take care of yourself, how are you suppose to take care of a company

It was on the same page as the nightly TV Guide listings.

The good thing about it being in the Globe is that it does mention that "Q" is available on RCN, and we all know that RCN and Q is available in Boston.
Hopefully it made a handful of RCN subs aware.

Morning ALL!
All's well in Q land. We will be fine. It will be on Oxygen for sure. Investors are snagging it up. Take a look at the buys vs. sell over the past month. We who have been here know that the PPS is being manipulated and is not reflective of how things are progressing. We all know that it might be a while before the .25-.30 range but it will certainly get there. I just think it's fun knowing that this will be something we can say we were in from the begining.

Doc, What did you and Richard talk about???
Posted by Penny-Trader on :
actually the bashers wont feel bad at all as they will be on the ride with us. The bashers have no conscience. they lie and manipulate the price with their deception and fear tactics and try to force weak hands to sell their positions to them at deflated prices. They are scum. they have no compassion for humans, but sell themselves as concerned for you and your money. when in reality the only concern they have for your money is how they can force it out of your hand and into thier pocket.
remember this. You will not see these guys until the potential is here for a run. You should be more concerned when you don't see them here. just don't get caught and fall into the trap of believing them. Do your DD look at the progress to date. PPS does not indicate anything other then the fact that there has not been a shortage of shares at this point.
The RSI is approaching 30 and once it goes below 30 this will be set for a run again. The bashers see that it is lowering and they try to speed this along. They know that we are not happy when the price is dropping and they are here to speed that process up by spreading negative or false statements about how the stock is a scam.
as soon as the price starts to rise you will not hear from the bashers at that point because they have bought thier shares and are riding them up. they are not going to bash at that point as they would be hurting thier potential. its not because they realise they where wrong. they know they are wrong when they are bashing. This is what they do. when they ride this up 75- 100% they dump thier shares, take thier profits and move on to the next stock. that is the way the game is played for them. they are not investors, they are day traders.
These are the people that CEO's don't like. they are there to manipulate the price not support the company.

No one really knows the outstanding share number so anyone guessing at future prices is just blowing smoke. Until Q tells us the financial information we can do nothing but guess.
I would be happy with .10 personally and see that as possible. Realistic at the current moment with what info we really do have is .02 most likley.
BUT if a buyback is really being done and is in large enough numbers the sky is the limit... we need a bonifide carrier deal and financial information that is in line with expectations and this will fly off the charts.

Welcome to the board. If we know a realistic price would be in five years, we would quit our day job. If you go back to the beginning of this thread, there are some good dd that can give you a lot of good dd information. Or just go to permanantguan website; Matt put all infor. on the web.

4/14/2005 - Oxygen
Dear QBID Investors,
We are very sorry for the confusion with QTelevision airing on the Oxygen Network this morning. We had extreme difficulties launching the spot through Oxygen and did not find out about it until very early this morning. This logistical problem will take three to four days to fix, but to ensure there will not be another delay; we will go live on April 21st. We have already purchased the air time with Oxygen for 31 days in May and 30 days in June, airing in two slots for ˝ hour a piece and can be viewed by any person who currently has the Oxygen Network in their home.
We recognize our investors are discouraged today and please understand we takes steps everyday to alleviate any anxieties you have concerning the success for QTelevision by securing more of a foothold with carriers, talent, programming and media. We are still very much on track and have powerful resources at our disposal to attain the level of success both you and the whole Q staff feel we can achieve.
Sincerely,
Frank Olsen

Verizon Signs Long-Term Deal With Starz Entertainment Group for Premium Movie Services Thursday April 14, 4:22 pm ET

Once again I'm in that place where I have money & watching for a bottom.
Frank kind of put it out there when he told us there are POWERFUL resourses.
I'll let this drift down while weaker people give in then buy. Personally I would prefer that investors held their ground & quit selling on non-events or missed deadlines. New money is attracted to growth prospects with stability, not what our shareholders are showing people.
Oh well, only person I can speak for is myself. I'll be buying whenever they have this oversold. By the looks of it I will not be selling for a year or two. To each his own but I want more than a nickel or dime!

Good point! It would be nice to head north of a cent & set up base there. Some of my shares are earmarked to go in the .25 range! Once we're over a penny to stay that target is reachable.

Studies: TV could reduce homophobia Christopher Curtis, PlanetOut Network Thursday, April 14, 2005 / 05:55 PM
Studies: TV reduces homophobia
Television could reduce homophobia, according to University of Minnesota communications research reported by the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
Researchers measured feelings toward gay men before and after college students watched episodes of "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy," "Will & Grace" and "Six Feet Under."
Respondents admitted to feeling less homophobia after watching each show.
Communications professors Edward Schiappa, Dean Hewes and graduate student Peter Gregg say this phenomenon is due to a form of "contact hypothesis," a mechanism for reducing prejudice through contact between majority and minority groups.
While contact hypothesis works through direct interaction, the researchers believe television creates a similar effect. In what the researchers call "parasocial contact hypothesis," subjects reduce their prejudice by watching members of minority groups on TV or in films.
"The study only reinforces what we at GLAAD already know -- that visibility leads to understanding and understanding leads to acceptance. It's really that simple," Damon Romine, entertainment media director for GLAAD, told the PlanetOut Network.
"The more images there are, the greater the understanding, and that leads to tolerance of difference -- and that's something we should all be striving for."
Results of the studies on "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" and "Six Feet Under" were published in the journal Communication Monographs. The results from the "Will & Grace" study have not been published.

Posted by Penny-Trader on :
no it didnt firefly posted it here around 2:15 pm if im not mistaken, but it was not released in the form of a pr it was posted on the website.
that takes a while for everyone to hear about it.
I just read it minutes ago. I have a blackberry and recieve all prs on my blackberry where ever i am but this kind of news does not get picked up and delivered to anyones indicators till it hits a pr state. if they pred it then you would have seen a bit of a rise in end of day trading.
not to worry though that is just more validation of things getting better.
once the financials are posted and they are in the area that we believe them to be in, this thing is going to have legs. and will move north fast.
just a matter of time. nothing more nothing less.

IMO, if you have what it takes to invest in a company that is not going to get huge overnight but is slowely building the foundation on which to become a real company for the future now is the time to invest, while the pps is affordable. Companies take time to build and it's easy to get discouraged when it doesn't happen as fast as we would like. I wish QBID could put out a pr every other day that would raise the pps 100% but my immpression is that it takes time to build the relationships and attract customers, etc. that are a part of business. As far as I can see that is what is happening now. My job as an investor is to wait and let Frank and Co. do their job. And add to my position as I can afford to! It's a risk, but one I belive will pay off over time. JMHO.

RonRon, It takes time for any good product to develop. Apple computers started out a garage. Bill Gates bought the DOS operating system. Both faced many hurdles to get where they are at. Shoot, Apple almost fell apart and is now huge once again with their IPODs.
Being cautious is wise, that is where your DD comes in. Check out the company and see if it is a product you believe in, If you believe in it then you should have more faith to invest in it. If you can't afford to lose the money your investing with, then don't invest it. All that being said, If you do your DD and like what the company has to offer then pull the trigger and wait and see what happens. Patience is a virtue.
Good Luck with your decision whichever way you choose.
You'll miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

i agree nice way to end the week.
i still can not get out of my head the thoughts that viacom may be on our side.
there are hints all over and every time i think of it i get a funny little smile on my face. that feeling that money is not to far away. That eases my mind every time i think about it.
there was a time when i thought what the hell i can afford to loose this money. Now i don't even consider it a possibility. This thing is going to be something great. I have not fallen in love with the stock, but i have realised that there is only one real destination for this company. that destination is going to be in 55 percent of the US market.
this thing has more potential then the BET network had. this is going to be huge. Frank knows exactly what he is doing and already knows what the outcome is going to be. He has told us that it is going to be every bit as successful as we think it is going to be.
He has the talent, the know how and the backing to get this to be the best GLBT channel out there. Why? because his heart is in it and he knows what the market wants to see. He is going to make this happen as he has been knee deep into the gay community for many years. he knows what they want he knows what they need and best of all he is giving them exactly those things that they desire in a GLBT network.
He has surrounded himself with the best of the best in the business. He is pulling out all the stops. look at all the media attention we have received in just the last couple of days. This thing is still in its infancy and it is already being talked about on all the major papers, news and talks shows. folks we are going to see things in the next few months that are going to step this up even more.
I see us securing a major carrier before summer, and being listed on a big board before the end of the year. I can see many major investors jumping on this in the very near future. People are looking for the next big stock, and i believe that this is the one that they will realise is going to make them the large returns. We are on this boat at a really good entry point, and i can see where many now holding this stock will never have to work again.
JMHO

Posted by g-invest on :
As an investor and not a trader in QBID, I would have to disagree with this being a PR. PR's are for new hires, mergers, buyout offers, and legitimate new happenings.
Buying back or retiring shares is just for us investors. The last thing we need is some day traders coming in and pumping this stock just to get it to run and then selling by the end of the day.
Of course, maybe I'm just a bit peeved because QBID never fell down to my buy-in point, .0024.
Did you guys notice how it only hit .0025 after I mentioned last Thursday I was hoping to accumulate some more when it hit .0024? I feel robbed.
Posted by g-invest on :
quote:Originally posted by comitrmax: Good morning all! Can anyone tell me what other similar companies I could compare Q to? Or tell me what a realistic price would be say five years down the road? I'm new at this and don't know what to expect. Are similar companies trading at $1, $3, $5 ? I don't know where to even begin looking. I'm very positive about this stock but want to have realistic expectations. Thanks.
HereTv, Pridevision, LOGO (Viacom) etc are players in this market. I don't really know of any comparable low-but-still-reasonably-priced media-related stock that has as loyal of an investor base.
The target for this stock with the current shares outstanding is probably .02. I just base this on the number of employees, general real estate, and etc. It's horribly undervalued right now and I think pretty much everyone knows it. The question is: when is it going to rise? The answer is, could be a few years or could be a few months if Viacom does a buyout before LOGO goes live.
If LOGO does go live, it might hurt QBID, but speculation of buyout offers will keep it from falling too far. It's going to be difficult to continue to hold with LOGO out and no financials, though, so I hope Frank is getting that organized and straightened out right now.
I think we can reasonably expect this to hit a penny or two within a year, though. I won't be selling at that though, unless that's the buyout offer than Frank accepts. Even then, I might just invest in whoever buys QBID out as long as Frank is still working for them.

Posted by Penny-Trader on :
here is a break down of every bit of info that has been made available to us from day one.
this is all info that has been put together by Ric in the past on this board and preserved by my good friend Matt
thanks guys
In Februaru 2004 it was noted that there were 15 billion authorized shares with 7.5 billion of those outstanding
To maintain majority vote, Frank Olsen, president owns 53% of the O/S. 3.975 Billion. This leaves 3.525 billion in the float
After a large increase in PPS, Q Television Network, QTN, dilutes the price and releases 2 billion more shares into the outstanding shares from the authorized shares.
After the dilution there are 9.5 billion outstanding shares. Frank owns 53%, or 5.035 billion, and the float is now 4.465 billion.
To expand, QTN receives a loan to acquire movie deals and rights to broadcast the 2006 Gay Games in Chicago. As collateral, QTN creates 6 billion more outstanding shares. Since the original 15 billion authorized shares were not enough to release 6 billion into the outstanding shares, the authorized shares count was increased to 50 billion.
Outstanding shares are now 15.5 billion. Frank still only owns 5.035 billion and the float is still just 4.465 billion. The 6 billion new shares are just for collateral. These 6 billion are restricted shares.
An announced buyback is completed in late December, 2005. Although the official number of shares bought back is not announced, it is speculated that at least 1 billion were bought back.
Therefore there are 3.465 billion in the float, 5.035 billion owned by Frank, and 6 billion restricted shares. We can assume Frank only wants to own 53% of the shares not including the restricted shares. Therefore he can also reduce his share count by 1.128 billion shares to 3.907 billion.
Thus the total, estimated, outstanding share count would be the 6 billion restricted + 3.907 billion of Franks shares + 3.465 billion in the float. Total = 13.372 billion shares outstanding.
After the loan is repaid and there is no need for collateral the 6 billion restricted shares can be destroyed. Future estimated outstanding share count is then 7.372 billion shares.

Debra: Is there were any planned mergers or buyouts and if so, when?
Frank Olsen: Well, the doors always open for something but nothing is planned right now, but the doors open because nobody is going to turn down an attractive deal, but we have to prove ourselves a little more before that happens. I think we're ready for the next question.

Q TELEVSION AGREES TO COVER GAY DAYS WEEKEND EVENTS ORLANDO - For the first time ever, Gay Days Weekend coverage will be broadcast daily on a national satellite television network.
GayDay . com has signed a sponsorship/partnership agreement with Q Television to offer live broadcasts daily from Orlando. Representatives from GayDay . com were recently at the Q Television Network studios in Dallas discussing Gay Day weekend on the network’s live Out on Q show. The network is also considering producing a documentary on the history of the 15-year-old event.
Q Television now covers all of the nation’s gay rodeos and has signed a partnership to televise the Gay Games in Chicago next summer. The network has also recently signed agreements to broadcast in Canada and Australia, with additional plans to be on Direct TV in the near future. The GLBT television company recently signed a nationwide carrier deal, bringing the network’s programming to 16 million potential viewers by June 1.
The agreement, with Products On Demand Channel Inc., will make Q Television's signature programming available to 107 stations. Q Television programming will be shown two hours daily in an effort to continue the national interest shown by carriers as well as potential subscribers. The signature programs available to be shown in its entirety are Q Television's incredibly popular, Q on the Move and In Focus, two programs that are anticipated to be shown on an unscrambled basis.

News Release
Verizon Signs Long-Term Deal With Starz Entertainment Group for Premium Movie Services
Verizon FiOS TV to Offer all 13 Starz Movie Services, Including Starz On Demand, Starz HDTV
April 14, 2005
Media contacts: Sharon Cohen-Hagar, Verizon, 972-718-6205 Eric Becker, Starz Entertainment Group, 720-852-4065
NEW YORK -- Verizon today announced a long-term affiliation agreement with Starz Entertainment Group LLC (SEG) for the SEG premium movie channels and services. Under the agreement, Verizon will be able to carry East and West Coast feeds of all 13 Starz Entertainment Group movie channels on Verizon FiOS TV when it launches later this year. The programming includes the flagship Starz and Encore brands, Starz On Demand and Starz HDTV.
Verizon will provide Starz On Demand, showcasing more than 100 movies-on-demand per month, and Starz HDTV at no additional charge for Starz subscribers.
"Consumers prefer a choice of uncut, commercial-free movies, so we are particularly pleased to be able to offer our future subscribers an impressive lineup of Hollywood movies including Starz On Demand and all of the Starz and Encore networks," said Terry Denson, vice president of marketing and programming for Verizon FiOS TV.
Edward Huguez, Starz Entertainment Group executive vice president of sales, said, "With blockbuster movies such as "The Incredibles," "The Aviator" and "National Treasure" coming exclusively to Starz Entertainment Group later this year, Verizon will be equipped to market terrific movie programming to movie-lovers in Verizon markets. As part of the service, these movies and more will be free to Starz on Demand viewers."
Verizon FiOS TV will offer customers a competitive alternative to cable or satellite. In addition to video on demand, FiOS TV will deliver hundreds of digital video channels, high-definition programming, music channels, an interactive programming guide and other customer-friendly features via the company's fiber-to-the-premises broadband network, now under construction in parts of 14 states. Customers will be able to buy FiOS TV as a stand-alone service or packaged with voice and FiOS high-speed data services, which are already available in some areas.

This is worth posting again and again. Now we need confirmation of this via a PR from the "Q". Look out soon as there will be no stopping the "Q".
Doc, Q really signed agreements to broadcast in Australia? When was this? Please fill me in, lol.
Look at the post of Rich735. What I am saying is that we need "Q" to confirm. I am not saying that they did sign Posted by Pennies to Dollars on :

Local women help new network BY RICK FOSTER / SUN CHRONICLE STAFF
ATTLEBORO -- Family values were a priority when partners Veronica Welch and Kelly Cinelli started their public relations and marketing business four years ago.
But that hasn't stopped the up-and-coming businesswomen from taking on a controversial client: The Q Television Network, billed as the nation's only TV service produced by and for gays and lesbians.
Welch, who was pregnant at the time, and Cinelli, wanted to create a business that they could nurture at home while caring for their growing families.
The pair used their writing and people skills to land public relations accounts with a growing number of clients ranging from biotech to homeland security firms under the banner CWR and Partners LLP.
When a mutual acquaintance facilitated a contact between CWR and the fledgling network last year, Welch and Cinelli were energized.
"This was a great opportunity for us to help launch a network," Cinelli said. "We weren't about to walk away from it."
Welch said she considered the implications of working for a gay network in a polarized political climate and decided that she owed it to her children.
"I didn't want to think about them looking back and thinking that I had been judgmental," she said.
CWR and Partners promotes news coverage about the network and fields media inquiries, the same services it provides to most customers.
Q Television network officials were interviewed recently by CNN, CNBC and the Associated Press as well as USA Today.
Some of CWR's other customers include Eagle Broadband, a Texas-based communications company; Advance Viral Research, a biotech firm, and SLS Loudspeakers, a cutting age audio equipment company.
Q, which went live last October, is already operating on a 24 hour, seven-day-week basis and is available by subscription only. About 25 percent of its programming is original.
The channel is currently negotiating with a number of potential cable carriers and is already available in Boston. Welch said plans are already underway to broaden carriage elsewhere in the northeast, including southeastern Massachusetts, and an announcement may be forthcoming as early as next month.
In promoting Q Network, CWR has been quick to differentiate the channel from Logo and Here!, existing networks featuring gay-oriented programming.
Q will be available only on a pay channel basis and will be scrambled so that non-subscribing households don't see it. The network will also steer clear of stereotypes and exploitation, sticking primarily with news, talk and gay lifestyle-oriented shows.
The network is also hiring gay talent, producers and support personnel to make its shows.
Q was devised by gay Seattle businessman Frank Olsen, who saw an opportunity to lift the quality level of television aimed at gay consumers. Scattered gay-oriented programming often were being made on a shoestring by gay talent who were "paid nothing," Olsen said.
"We wanted to do shows that looked like NBC," he said.
While gay themes and characters are emerging in increasing numbers on conventional and cable networks, Olsen said many have been tailored to emphasize general audience stereotypes--with a premium on crotch-grabbing.
"That's not who we are," Olsen said.
Instead, Q focuses on gay attitudes and lifestyles with such shows as "Q on the Move," a program that visits locations around the country to focus on gays in those regions; "Women On Women," focused on lesbian issues; and "Paradise Falls," a gay-oriented soap opera.
In FoQus, a biography show, has already done a close-up on Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank, and "Q on the Move" plans to visit Providence in the near future in a visit that will include a talk with Mayor David Cicilline, who is openly gay.
To promote subscriptions and carriage on major cable systems, Q recently signed a deal with Products On Demand Channel Inc. to telecast "Q on The Move" on up to 107 stations. The show will include an infomercial aimed at potential subscribers and cable providers.

We are excited to announce that we have booked new venues for the Saturday night main event and the after party. We've done this because of the incredible national response and the number of on-line tickets already sold.
Our new location is on Maple Avenue, just a mile from the host hotel. It has 25,000 square feet, two dance floors, multiple chill-out areas, and a VIP patio. This larger venue will help make "Valley of the Dolls" a remarkable weekend!
And to improve our Saturday even more, the after party will be held at "The Docks", located just behind the main event. We're installing a dance floor and lighting system to bring you an after-party experience that's just walking distance away from the main event!
We welcome all of you, JustCircuit.com and Q-TV as they broadcast live all weekend long from the Valley of the Dolls

The float could be 5,000,000,000 shares - no one knows for sure and I'm sure Frank doesn't want to spill the beans or he would have by now..
Posted by WinsumLosesum on :
Logo's ride to reality hasn't exactly been smooth. It spent years on parent company Viacom's back burner, and already has seen its starting date postponed from February. This year's delay was partly to get more programming in place but was also because it only had agreements to be in 2 million to 3 million of the nation's nearly 110 million television homes.
Even Viacom can not get their own channel into all the homes...... I suppose it is becuase the local distributors have a say into what is shown locally!

If Viacom can't get it's own channel distributed no wonder it's taking a long time for Frank and Co. to make headway. I guess that's why they call it holding long and strong and patient.

Yes, I know he doesn't wanna spill the beans, but he better spill the whole can if he wants the pps to go anywhere. Retire this an that, but give no as/os is what is hurting this thing. Everyone is waiting for this, and if he ever decides to spill these beans, then the pps will go up, and also on carrier news. Why do people think the pps isn't going up, it's because of no carrier news and no news on the as/os. Once we know this it will help know where the pps can go to. I'm just blabbing now, upset is all. Well, good day everyone.

When we get the official announcement that OutTV and Pridevision are actually broadcasting "Q" programming, I think that it will help the PPS. That will give us Canadian coverage and some coverage to the US via Direct TV.
GO QBID!!!! Bring On The Green Posted by buckwheatbob on :
From the article:
When Viacom announced it was going ahead with Logo, Olsen said he started getting phone calls from cable companies returned.
"Having a company like Viacom validate the niche automatically made the concept of a gay-oriented channel more viable," Colichman said.
Nothing better than getting someone else to unlock the door of opportunity. Posted by buckwheatbob on :

Posted by permanentjaun on :
Getting off the pinks to another exchange is easier than you think Nicholas.
At this current point in time the only exchange they could probably move to is the otcbb. They simply require the company to be fully reporting.
One thing thats nice about this is the following from the above site, "Unlike all other exchanges, stocks trading on the OTC Bulletin Board cannot be shorted."

At this point, there IS no point for me, I have lost so much that staying in forever is the same as getting out, just the commission will kill me to exit it, which is why I have the patience I do with it, I have no choice, I'll let it ride for a year or two and maybe I'll get lucky
Not being able to short a stock gets rid of a lot of the MM manipulation we have seen lately though

OTC Bulletin Board (administered by NASDAQ)
Financial Requirements : No minimum shareholder equity or income. Companies must be reporting companies, providing an annual report to shareholders, current in all its filings, and subject to SEC proxy rules. Distribution and Size Criteria : No minimum number of shareholders or shares outstanding, other than having a sufficient number of shareholders and shares outstanding to allow a trading market. SEC status : Listed companies must have completed a registration of the company or its securities and have reporting company status. Companies must be current in all their filings. New shell companies will not be granted a trading symbol. Companies with securities quoted on the OTCBB are subject to periodic reporting of financial information to the SEC. Issuers who file with the SEC via EDGAR are not required to submit hard copy filings with the OTCBB or the NASDAQ. Unlike all other exchanges, stocks trading on the OTC Bulletin Board cannot be shorted.

Lets just keep this thing AWAY from a r-split and we will all be OK. I was in one that did a split and was ok 4 for 3 days then tanked 50% but company wil be(and is) great for a long stock.(FRPT).... Lets all do a Qbid cruise in 12-18 months and stop off at the bank on the way!!!!! GO QQQQQQQQQ

Hopefully you will get in on ALLC and that will make up for your losses. That's what I did.
Posted by Ligge on :
Its never been said but I am willing to bet that those "personally held" shares were the buyback previously discussed and are now or have been retired. So Frank's position and % never changed the last year or so other than to go up for a short bit while he held the shares being bought back until they were retired.
That doesnt change the possibility of a reverse split. I know what Frank has said about that too, but if a partnership or buyout gets in the works he will not have the control left to stop it.
I sure hope one doesnt happen, but I am bracing myself in case it does.
Prepare for the worst and hope for the best. You alwyas end up being ready with no bad surprises.

"... the company will meet this week..." "... to begin the process..." "... will formally begin the preliminary application process..." "... immediately begin counseling..." "We HAVE hired..." "... and we will act upon it very quickly."
Well, I have to say this is worded WAY stronger than the normal pink sheet good intentions of eventually becoming fully reporting. Of course, we have all learned the hard way, that with the Q, it ain't done 'til it's done. I don't want to set myself up for disappointment either, but wow, that makes me think this could actually HAPPEN.
Cautious optimism here.
"stocks trading on the OTC Bulletin Board cannot be shorted." Wow, this keeps getting better and better. Thanks, permanentjaun. Unfortunately, it probably doesn't stop those evil Market Monsters from naked shorting OTC stocks.
( Hey there, Mrs. Deg! It's been a while. I haven't been posting much, but I couldn't resist this morning. You inspired me. )
Posted by buckwheatbob on :
I am wondering about this shorting issue. I know that the exchange overseas has been causing them problems. I hope this issue will not be a glitch for them. I am thinking that seeing as they where listed illegally anyways and without permission, it should be no problem. If being listed on the OTBB prevents shorting then that in itself should raise the PPS all on its own.
Posted by WinsumLosesum on :
How 'bout that! Look who just flew in! Looks like the old school is reporting in. Maybe we can get pharm to say hello.

Posted by andrewAAB on :
what would a reverse-split do?? I am not current with this meaning?? So if you have a million shares what would happen to them??? Cut in half to bring down the o/s and your shares???
Posted by LEO on :
reverse splits are not just by half, sometimes they can be 20/1. Ouch...
Posted by kissme on :
No R/S ! Read this ==>> WELCOME ... Note To Investors: Frank Olsen stated that "as long he is associated with the company NO roll back or split will take place"
thanks... so more or less it is a way to lower the o/s without costing the company anything?
Posted by Bryan_J on :
I suffered a 1/1000 R/S with ITDJ today. My $340 closed at $12 today. Posted by Ligge on :
Reverse split means that if they did a 100-1 reverse split and you had 1 mill shares you would now have 10000.
Sometimes it brings prices up, sometimes they tank. It just depends how far out of line our OS count is in relation to what comapny value is... of course, as someone will post right after this, and likely in all caps...
FRANK HAS SAID OVER AND OVER AGAIN THERE WILL NO REVERSE SPLIT WITH THE CURRENT MANAGEMENT TEAM!
lol and now I stole their steam, dang that was fun!
Posted by kissme on :
I see dirty flippers opened their bad mouth about R/S. They must be idiots if they sold today. They will need to hold their under-wear chasing QBID very soon.
Posted by LEO on :
That's right Andrew, and the company may do it because they believe higher pps will attract more investors.
Posted by kissme on :
No R/S. That's why buy-back and share retirement have been in the work. If carriers are announced, there will be ton of people all over the world waiting in line to buy QBID shares.
Posted by Penny-Trader on :
hey this didn't raise the pps at all but i will tell you this.
this is 2 more very large pieces of the puzzle coming together.
can it get any better then this? I don't think so.
there seems to be an urgency now to get the ducks in a row. a lot of this validates the Viacom Rumour in my heart.
in order to get a buyout we would have to be fully reporting to give a true valuation of a purchase price. this move is way ahead of what they originally speculated in the conference call of it not being done till late 2005 or early 2006.
things are starting to spin into shape and i am glad to be positioned where i am.
Get ready to start welcoming back some of the old school posters for the Q. they are going to see the potential on this one and return in full force.
I'm sure however that the bashers will twist these things as a bad thing but now stronger then ever i feel that we are only a short time away from our dreams.
Frank has been hinting at great things happening and they are starting to be visual. only a complete moron would come here now and try to convince us that this is a bad investment.
LONG STRONG AND HOLDING ON
GO BABY Q GOOOOOOOOOOO
in case you where not sure I am very happy with today's news.

.....the good news just keeps rolling in.....can the monster PR be far behind?
Posted by buckwheatbob on :
This is not my doing but a cut and paste I saved from another board a while back. The numbers may be changed but the math should make your projection close:
If you hate math...skip this post...
I just got back from dinner with some fellow QBID investors. The topic of QBID's future pps popped up...and from our discussion...this is what we came up with...keep in mind that three of the other investors are very conservative engineers...You should have seen the table clothe when we were done...chicken scratch everywhere...lol
1 Year PPS projection
20-30 Million Gays and Lesbians in the US (that are out of the closet...this is a very conservative stat)
3% ROI (marketing effort)= 900,000 subscribers by year 1
900,000 x $9.95 = $8,955,000 x 50% (industry standard...cable companies cut) = $4,477,500/mo or $53,730,000/year
Advertisment/Founding Sponsor program...20 spots at $250,000 per advertiser or $5,000,000/year
Industry average is $2,500.00 per commercial x 8-10 commercials per hour or $20,000 per hour x 8760 hours per year (24/7 programming) = $175,200,000/year
Total Revenue
$53,730,000 (subscription per year based on 900K subscribers by year 1) $5,000,000 (Founding Sponsor program based on 20 spots) $175,200,000 (Commercials based on Industry standards of $2500 per commercial/8-10 per hour...24/7 programming)
Total Revenue by year 1
$233,930,000/year
Expenses (assuming 40%)
$93,572,000
Net Operating Income
$140,358,000
Per-share earnings
$140,358,000 / 4.5 Billion (assuming 9 Billion OS...after buyback of 50%) = .0311 earnings per share
assuming a very conservative (S&P) PE ratio of 18 and 20...
P/E of 18 = .56 pps P/E of 20 = .62 pps
However...QBID is a very speculative stock...and could possibly have a P/E ratio of 30, 40 or 50...
P/E of 30 = .93 pps (our pick by year 1) P/E of 40 = $1.24 pps P/E of 50 = $1.55 pps
We agreed that a PE ratio of 30 was very conservative for such a speculative stock...if QBID's soft launch goes off without a hitch...and they PR a major advertiser within one week of the soft launch...our views of QBID being a short term hold will change...we would consider holding a position long term (1-3 years)
.93 x 4.5 Billion = $4.185 Billion Market cap...
At this stage of the game the market cap is the value that the world of stock market investors has placed on the company (at least for today) Much of this perceived value is due to the expectations of a company's future prospects. Market cap is not dictated by how "big" a company is.
Here are some related links on advertising and calculating PE ratios...

Remember the post from some time ago. In order for Frank to take this company to another exchange there has to be a huge amount of business going on. If I remember right in order for a company to be on the NYSE, the company has to have 500 million in sales. What exchange would he take it to to really add some clout to the company other than an exchange like the NYSE. Q's not even close to 500 million in sales so the NYSE is out...I would think? Anyone hear what exchange he hopes to move to?

Frank is not intested in the NYSE at the moment. He is only intersted in 1 step at a time and he has the requirement met.

Do you know something about the "Q" revenue that we don't know. Do you think that he gave our programming to Pridevision/OutTV, think again!!!

Long time reader, first time poster . . . QBID is my first long term investment, so I only hold a quarter million shares, but the math and PRs have got me too excited to keep quiet anymore. I like where this is going, and I hope I see some of you ahead of me in line at the bank.

http://www.tangobluesentertainment.com/news.htm Tango Blues Entertainment announces four-year broadcast deal for Coors Cup Hockey Tournament with Q Television Network in negotiations for North American broadcast telvision rights
April 13th, 2005 (Hollywood, CA) – Tango Blues Entertainment (TBE) announced a four-year broadcast licensing deal with the Los Angeles Blades, Inc. and the Colorado Gay Ice Hockey Association (CGIHA) for the annual Coors Cup Hockey Tournament. Under the terms of the agreement, all Coors Cup Hockey Tournament broadcast rights are granted to Tango Blues Entertainment for this annual event through 2008. The deal calls for TBE to produce and distribute events to broadcast television, Internet, radio, home video, DVD and other ancillary content to promote the growth of the sport and visibility of the event in the gay community. The Q Television Network, home of the Gay Games VII broadcast, is currently in negotiations with Tango Blues Entertainment for the North American television broadcast rights to the Coors Cup.
The Coors Cup brings the excitement of hockey to the gay community with a weekend full of competition on the ice. The Coors Cup is in it’s second year, bringing more then a dozen gay hockey teams with over 150 participants from throughout the US, Canada and Europe together to compete in a professional forum. Over 150 league members, both men and women, compete in three divisions for the Coors Cup. Each of the winning divisional teams receives a donation of $1000 to the team’s charity of choice, courtesy of title sponsor Coors Brewing Company.
"This is a unique broadcast deal, and we are very proud to be a part of it," said Andrew Briskin, President and CEO of Tango Blues Entertainment. "The Coors Cup Hockey Tournament is one of the largest gay hockey competitions in North America, with over a dozen teams competing on different levels for a good cause. Our goal in obtaining these rights is to bring exciting and unique gay-oriented sporting events to the forefront of the community, providing packaged television, Internet and radio content for the emerging gay media outlets to take advantage of. "
“The LA Blades are very excited to be in partnership with Tango Blues to film the Coors Cup II Labor Day ice hockey tournament” states Brynne Van Putten, “We feel the event will capture the excitement and camaraderie that occurs on and off the ice. Broadcast exposure will allow others to experience the thrill of victory and an inside look at players and fans. This will truly be an event like no other.”
"This agreement will benefit not just the Coors Cup but I believe it can benefit GLBT sports in general," said Andrew Winsett, president of the CGIHA. "With broadcast quality production values and professionalism, Tango Blues gives the tournament a platform to show the GLBT athletic community that events such as this are even more exciting, rewarding and commercially viable than ever imagined."
“Q Television Network feels this event will be another jewel in our crown, bringing the community to the community.” stated Steven Grunberg, Executive Vice President of Programming for Q Television Network.
North America’s only gay charity hockey championships, the Coors Cup alternates between venues in Denver, Colorado and Los Angeles, California. This year’s Coors Cup II is held in El Segundo, California, from September 2 nd – 5 th. The $24 million dollar HealthSouth Training Center facility, practice center for professional hockey team the L.A. Kings, provides for a spectacular broadcast facility and venue for this exciting gay entertainment and sports event. In 2006 the Coors Cup takes a hiatus during the Gay Games, followed in 2007 with a return to Denver, Colorado and the home of the CGIHA .

There is another gay and lesbian channel out there called LOGO? NO WAY! When did this happen? How come no one here even knows about it or mentions it? How could I invest in a company that has competition? The horror!
(If you are new to the board please ignore the silly people posting bad news and trying to scare you about QBID. I will bet it gets worse for a few days again. Do your own research... ask questions... read this entire thread and more... there are people on here that know so much about Q that you would swear they are sleeping with Frank! Do all this and you will probably come out with the same conclusion many of us have already. This is a stock to buy!)

I think Paul Allen is the new money behind QBID
1.He is gay friendly ,he invested 25Million in a vaccine for aids . 2.The oxygen network first to air lesbian series "Ellen" 3.The oxygen network about to air one of QTV 's shows from the 21st April 4.He is the largest shareholder in Oxygen 5.The first carrier to agree to carry was in the northwest where he is passionate about and has spent millions on good causes for the area. 6.Never married ,and if Bill Gates can get a wife ,there would be no nerd factor involved .

Come admit it, you want some shares Posted by CHIMAN34 on :
This is really nice for the morning start. Now we need to keep this up and continue a slow climb. If they can announce another exchange soon and more pr's with positive numbers, then great. But they need to announce that other exchange first. I hope they don't announce it in July or after if what they said was true that they want to move fast in moving over. Also, if they would announce carriers at the same time as the move over, then BAM. Getting very interesting now.

What does it mean for QBID to get off the pinksheets and to be a fully reporting company, assuming it bypasses the OTCBB and gets on an exchange like NYSE or NASDAQ or something to that affect.
Alot of people will not touch a pink sheet stock, so being the OTCBB will attract new investors. In addition, most institution investors are not allow to invest in pinks.
Becoming fully reporting supports the current value of a company and by assuming what market share is available and what market share the company could possible get lets the investor know the potential of the company.

Posted by Penny-Trader on :
this is probably answered but i'm still catching up.
to be off the pinks and fully reporting is huge. it means that they report all thier income thier expenses their financials, their share structure, everything. what this does is gives credibility to the validity of the company.
it tells us that they are not diluting the stock and it tells us if they are making or loosing money.
therefore you will get a valuation of the company that will reflect in the pps and you will get more serious investors on board with the company. Many many people that are successful investors will not look at or buy pink sheet stocks because of the risk involved. the reporting gets rid of those risks and fears.
that is why you don't see any large companies traded on the pinks.
hope that helps you some.

It's not going to bypass the OTCBB unless it has something HUGE in the works to make it a solid above .10 stock. The only other exchange it could go to would be AMEX.
UNLESS it does a R/S. But Frank is so damn afraid of doing a reverse split that he would never consider doing that. IMHO, this is destined to be an OTCBB stock. If it were NASDAQ or NYSE caliber, Viacom would have already bought them and told them not to look at moving to another exchange.
However, it is worthwhile to note that by moving to the OTCBB, they will be posting their financials, and when they do that, it might take all but a week for a buyout offer to hit the plate. If they can seriously move to the OTCBB, then they will get bought out immediately IMHO.
The only way they will get to the AMEX is if they are buying back another two billion shares and Frank retires another billion of his.

To add to what Penny Trader is saying: When you are publishing your financials, you are not lying. You're being fully accountable to your shareholders, you're also hiring an accountant or accounting firm. Frank has to have some cash stored away to be taking the steps he's taking. But he's spending it wisely.
Please note that a move to the OTCBB will most likely cost enough that the acquisition of Pridevision will be delayed.

For some funny reason I think it will all come together just around the same time. If the aquisition happens before moving to OTBB, the price could be decent when the move happens. If it takes place after the move,then that would be a pretty hefty first PR and may really make the price move. Either way Q and the share holders win!

You know, I'm inclined to think the same. It would seem to me that if Q is serious enough about moving to the OTCBB that they must have some really good PR to support it. And the sad thing is, the MMs HAVE to realize this and know they'll be forced to cover any shorts if they do, they might be doing the last of their accumulation soon. We'll have to see what PR, if any, comes out this Friday.

Okay my take on Q Television as promised.
As you all know Pridevision has a new spinoff called OutTV and it started to broadcast on April 12th 2005. The Pridevision channel is experiencing difficulties getting carried by the previous carriers and Mr. Craig is working at getting that problem resolved. See following letter.
A LETTER TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS: As you may know, we have recently launched OUTtv, an exclusive lifestyle GLBT channel, and are continuing to offer PrideVision as a standalone pay service. The carriage of both channels has been met with enthusiam by Rogers Cable, and other Canadian cable companies. It was our intention, and expectation, that other cable companies including Shaw Cable, and the Canadian satellite companies Bell ExpressVu and Star Choice, would at least continue to carry PrideVision TV as a standalone pay television service, as would have been appropriate.
Instead, to our dismay, at the time of changeover on April 12th, these companies opted to provide their customers with OUTtv in the pay television slot, but they have refused to carry OUTtv in a package. For your information, the carriage of OUTtv as part of Shaw Cable's, Bell ExpressVu's and Star Choice's "theme" packages, as we have been stating is mandatory, is the subject of a number of Complaints by us currently before the CRTC
ENTER Q TELEVISION:
So does Frank want Pridevision, I would have to say no as it is to provocative for the needs of Q Television. The OutTV broadcasting is more in line with "Q"'s mission and plans.
In the e-mail that I received on 04/18/05 the Director of Programming for OutTV indicated that they were in the process of evaluating the "Q" programming for possible inclusion in their lineup. She stated "that I just may get my wish to see "Q" programming on OutTV.
If you look at the programming grid for OutTV they appear to be struggling to get their time slots filled and IMO that is where "Q" comes into the picture. OutTV is newly broadcasting in its current format and the company will have to scramble to keep the customers satisfied. Their current line up is not going to do it.
IMO. Frank will wait to see what happens with OutTv and how their new customer base plays out, before he makes a move to acquire the operation.
The Pridevision situation will cause Mr. Craig to be further cash strapped and the prospect of selling OutTv to Frank will look more attractive each passing day. The wheels are already in motion on this one. I feel that we will get a PR late this week or early next week telling us that OutTV/Pridevision has agreed to start carrying "Q" television programming.
The market situation, if you all remember some time ago Frank made a trip to Boston where he apparently met with the Boston Market and AMEX officials. Shortly after that meeting he announced that he would like to make QBID a reporting company and take it to another exchange level. IMO "Q" has revenue coming in and we will be very surprised when he releases the financials. IMO this will happen in mid May to the beginning of June.
Of course this is all speculation but its my take on what will happen, I will of course update and modify as information becomes available.
Long and holding here, sorry for the long winded post. But this should give you something to talk about Posted by Doctoall on :
Take a look at the programming grid for OutTV at www.outtv.ca and see what I am talking about, their lack of programming and the open slots where Qtelevision could place programming.
GO QBID!!!!! We Will See Green Very Soon Posted by Doctoall on :

Dear Mr. Craig: I would truly appreciate it if your new television company OutTV would start carrying the original programming of Q Television out of Palm Springs. I am a viewer of Q and I must say that their programming is awesome. I feel that the Canadian viewers would truly appreciate what this company has done to promote the GBLT life style.
Please consider carrying the “Q”. I am confident that your company stands to gain by the broadcasting of Q Television.
Respectfully Submitted

Hi All QBiders,
I have a test question for you folks. Ok, I know everyone hates to take tests so I'll call it a survey instead. Assuming that Q manages to move off the pinks, which imo looks like it will happen soon, how do you think the news will break.
will it be: 1. The news will break in the middle of a trading day and the PPS will rise from .003 to >.03 in like 10 minutes. or 2. ...Qtv has completed the move off the pinks… and plans to start trading on OTBB on Monday. The PPS will open @ .03... or 3. No one can tell. (Feel free to add to the list) Also, does anyone know if a move off the pinks has helped or hurt a company in the past?
Posted by g-invest on :
If they are really at 6 billion shares, then expect a price per share of .0075 (Market value of 45 million) for short term and maybe .0115 for longer term.

Dear QBID Investors,
We are very sorry for the confusion with QTelevision airing on the Oxygen Network this morning. We had extreme difficulties launching the spot through Oxygen and did not find out about it until very early this morning. This logistical problem will take three to four days to fix, but to ensure there will not be another delay; we will go live on April 21st. We have already purchased the air time with Oxygen for 31 days in May and 30 days in June, airing in two slots for ˝ hour a piece and can be viewed by any person who currently has the Oxygen Network in their home.
We recognize our investors are discouraged today and please understand we takes steps everyday to alleviate any anxieties you have concerning the success for QTelevision by securing more of a foothold with carriers, talent, programming and media. We are still very much on track and have powerful resources at our disposal to attain the level of success both you and the whole Q staff feel we can achieve.

Tuesday my wife and I went to the Hilton next door to the Convention Center for some lunch. While we were standing in line, I noticed five guys with Dish Network shirst on. I grabbed one of the guys and said "Are you guys carrying Q television?" He said, "you'll have to talk to our programming director right there". The guys name was Tom, real nice guy, so I started asking him if he knew of the Q. He said "Oh yeah, I just talked to some folks the other day about whether or not we're bringing them aboard". He also said that he remebered about five years ago that a deal blew up with that network. I said yeah, I know, Frank opened his yap a little too soon and I think that blew the deal. He said, yeah, that's the guys name, but, we're talking with him again. He also asked what I had to do with the Q and I told him that I was just an investor and that I'd really like to see them pick up the Q and he said that they were seriously talking with them right now! Take this for what you want, but it was a purely happenchance meeting and this guy was a programming director. I don't know if he knows completely what is going on, but he seemed to know more than he wanted to tell me. I told him to only share with me what he felt like sharing, so who knows, just trying to do my part! Go Q!

I hope the incident from 5 years ago does not haunt them. On the other hand, maybe dish can now see the forest for the trees. I am sure that Frank also learned a lesson from that severe mistake.

4/21/2005 - RE: Oxygen
Investors,
I just wrapped-up a meeting with management regarding Oxygen. Obviously, another delay has occurred due to conflicts with pending agreements. Potential carriers that want to air Q On The Move are allowing the infomercial on Oxygen to take place, but do not want that specific show aired. This means Q will have to run another segment more in line with what the carriers want.
Understand that these spots have been paid for from April 1 through June 30. That said, Q wants these spots aired just as quickly as the investors.
I will update as I receive information

There is your answer about today. Its great that we have potential carriers telling us what programs to run and not to run Geez we do have carriers that are interested, its only a matter of time, nothing more and nothing less.

My take on this is if a carrier is allowing an infomercial to be shown, but not a specific show to be shown, they may be more than a "potential" carrier.

I agree, it sounds like specific programming has been discussed and rights given to a carrier
If we only knew all that is happening but Frank will give us the info in due time.

Posted by Pennies to Dollars on :
I am, however, a little disappointed that Q is paying for a time slot that runs between April 1st through June 30th. We have payed for almost a full month of advertising without the infomercial being aired. Nonetheless, I am satisfied that Richard has taken it upon himself to inform investors with reasons for the delay.
Posted by g-invest on :
WTF. Since when do carriers pick a different show from the one they are going to be airing to advertise for? Either there are some shows that will be picked up by certain carriers that Frank hasn't told us about or the whole buying advertisments thing is just a fraud. I hope to god its the former and not the latter.

"Potential carriers that want to air Q On The Move are allowing the infomercial on Oxygen to take place, but do not want that specific show aired" => note "potential carriers", how many are there? good point, Doc! livefeed is available to oxygen on april 21; didnt say oxygen will air the live feed on april 21. we are just getting too serious. relax, it will come, people.

It's crucial that Frank release some sort of financials or subscription numbers. Even if we are losing money, or do not have a lot of subscriptions, it will instill confidence in investors since we would not be kept in the dark in regards to these matters. I still don't know how we are going to move up to a better exchange when we cannot pass an audit, but let's hope the guys he hired is good and can get us going. Most professionals do not even take a look at pink sheets. Being on a better exchange can open us up to more potential investors.

My take on the IR update, is that the carrier(s) like the Show, but the episode that was going to be aired, they did not like. They want a different episode aired! I don't see it as a show stopper....
"Break a leg!".....

quote:Originally posted by g-invest: WTF. Since when do carriers pick a different show from the one they are going to be airing to advertise for?
All the time. In the end the carriers, both nationally and the local affiliates have the final say in what airs on their channels and in their area. This includes not only networks themselves but specific shows and even individual episodes as well.
Remember the whole kids show fiasco a little while back that had lesbian parents featured? That was yanked but the series itself was not. Sorry I forget the name at the moment, but I am sure someone here remembers it.
While the potential is huge and the future is still on track in my eyes, we must never forget that ultimately we are not dealing with a mainstream subject. We are dealing with an extremely hot topic in an politically controlled antigay climate. I am sure that the other networks are running into the same issues off and on. However, Viacom has the clout we dont. If Redstone wants to play hardball he can pull channels or threaten too if carriers do not want to deal with LOGO. We dont have that luxury or power in the industry. I am quite sure Mtv brings in a pretty penny in advertising dollars to the cable/satellite broadcasters and no way would they want to give that up if they could avoid it.

Agree here. IMO The carriers want the best episode shown because there will be contact information aired throughout the program. "Call your Comcast carrier today, call DirectTV today" So of course they will have some say if their name is attached to the Oxygen programming, sounds above board to me Posted by Col. Cornhole on :

Either that or they would like an infomercial for Q television run and not the actual show because they would like the show to be shown for its first time by them. Either way makes sense to me.

What? It's right in front of you. Last week he missed it, as did he this week. Investors are tired of things NOT happening, and these delays. UNTIL he can live up to his word, the PPS will continue to decline.
He needs to release financials, move onto a better exchange, and stay on top of his promises.
Taken from IHUB:
1) No 123 sation deal 2) No RCN expansion that was "iminent" according to your written words. 3) No Liz Taylor tribute 4) No Morning show, whatever the hell the are gonna call it. No sponsors ever announced for the show. 5) No other cities for the road show isnpite of only 1 of the original 2 months remaining, except for the one city that Frank happens to LIVE IN (how convenient) 6) No talk of the "programming deals" announced by Rene after NCTA. 7) No superbowl coverage.
I want it to go up just as much as you do, but there is a lot of work that needs to be done.

All you can do is throw personal attacks and call people "bashers" when presented with things that Q Television did not do or follow up upon. It is sad you cannot see both the positives and negatives. You've been here with Doctorall for over a year now and SEE everything done that is NOT followed up upon, but all you continue to do is praise and pump the stock. Perhaps if I'm so "full of sh*t", you could explain to me what happened to all of the things above I said?
Once we move upto a better exchange, MORE investors will be aware and this thing will start moving. Most do not even look at Pinks or penny stocks.

wow you really cant see both sides to an issue. I'm not trying to run off anybody. As a matter of fact I plan on buying more when RCN does launch. I've talked to them personally and know the situation. My whole point from the beginning is they are hurting the image of the company to investors by setting dates and not meeting them.

Doc and Ricardo I agree with you about QBID, but it's a waste of time responding to recent negative comments about QBID.
If Ghosty and/or Stealx are serious about their "concerns", they should give their money to a professional money manager because they don't have what it takes to invest by themselves.
If one or both are paid "bashers", nothing we say or do will chase them away.
For the record, I'd rather listen to paid bashers than "scared" investors. The basher is just trying to earn a living and very likely understands the potential of QBID. But scared investors understand very little and lets the bashers convince them to panic-sell, which drives down the PPS for everyone.
If all current QBID shareowners refused to sell their shares, the price would go up. Economics 101 . . . the law of supply and demand.

I dont disagree that there have been some bad PRs released prematurely that probably shouldnt have been at all. Mistakes happen, I am not convinced that they are lies though. No offense to everyone all excited (and now upset) about the Oxygen thing but I am just not concerned about that piece of the puzzle. I have seen the accusations towards Frank as a liar etc but really... do you think he would make that crap up? Why? He has to know as well as we do that there is NOTHING that will move the pps anymore other than a carrier deal or financials reported that are in line with or better than the best guesses we have out there. So why in the world would Frank lie about BUYING COMMERCIAL AIRTIME. Thats just silly. I can see if it was a "Oxygen has signed a agreement with Q to air their shows nightly for free because they feel so strongly in its success!" headline that people might have the opportunity to accuse Frank of lying if it then didnt happen and no answers were given. But this is different. He paid for advertising... it hasnt happened yet, for whatever reason... big 88888888 deal!
We have seen the ads in other places and we have seen the progress made on other fronts. Thats all good news. We have seen confirmation from other companys in relation to deals made. Firestone, Gay Games, Gay Day, B&C full page ads, talent that has been hired, marketing team, law firm (I can guarrantee you that if we were not paying those attorneys to work on our behalf they would have issued a press release to that effect, how many hits do you think they got with odd out of the blue referring tags being Allstocks, Ihub, qtelevisiondotcom etc. when that PR came out? It got noticed I am sure.), PrideTV, and so on and so on.
I dont know what happened to the Oxygen deal today nor do I care one bit. The company is tracking correctly from everything I see. It is unfortunate that things have not always been as they seemed or panned out as we all would have liked in the past, and I firmly believe it is due to the past issues and the betrayal some people are feeling from those problems that this Oxygen deal has turned into such an explosive issue. Its really not a big deal... we are buying commercials. There is nothing significant about that or in my eyes even important. Its late night nontarget audience programming we are paying to have aired!! Hell, I wish they would save all that money and run 15-30 second spots in prime time or during the news hours and show off their programming on Public Access stations to get attention for a while or just increase bandwidth on the web and have the mini commercials direct them there.
Anyway, I picked up some more today at .0027, thanks for that at least.

Have you ever heard of Naked Shorting...we must consider that as well in the stock price..That is why it is imperitive that we get onto a real board....

Thanks guys, the insanity today is umm well insane.
Q is going to make it, I dont have a single doubt in my head of that part. The question is what will they make it as. Even if its just as a content provider or partner for someone like LOGO it is still a big win for the investors.
I look at this as a guarranteed 4 bagger. If it doubles that and makes it to .02 then thats just more money for me. If he gets real truly substantial carrier deals or surprises us with an unbelievable OS report... then I will quit my day job and buy my hammock in the islands.
Frank is not a dummy and while he may have made some snafus in the past I think much of what we are being fed and what we are seeing happen is being orchestrated from on high. Its just a hunch, but I think there is more going on than we are being told and when this does all happen and it is all announced it will be fast and furious.
Unless Frank is flipping shares (lol maybe he is ghosty trying to get back in low) or releasing more stock and lying about it they have not made any money on this stock for some time. Yet, all of a sudden, starting in the last few months they are spending a ton. Where is it coming from?
My guess is more restricted shares have gone out as well as some hefty partnerships have been created.
If anyone can figure that out we will have all the answers we will ever need.

If Ghosty and/or Stealx are serious about their "concerns", they should give their money to a professional money manager because they don't have what it takes to invest by themselves.
If one or both are paid "bashers", nothing we say or do will chase them away.
For the record, I'd rather listen to paid bashers than "scared" investors. The basher is just trying to earn a living and very likely understands the potential of QBID. But scared investors understand very little and lets the bashers convince them to panic-sell, which drives down the PPS for everyone.

According to this web site QBID is not on the list of stocks that have been shorted.

I, like a smart investor/trader, took my money out of qbid for now because it's a pig (right now). I'll come back when its the right time.
Bingo. I have a lot of shares of QBID, most of which are free shares from the last run. I can't understand how these people (many of whom have been here for well over a year) can sit here and call people bashers who post a list of things that have not happened that the company said would. And their only response is "that's the past, who cares". It is amazing.

What? It's right in front of you. Last week he missed it, as did he this week. Investors are tired of things NOT happening, and these delays. UNTIL he can live up to his word, the PPS will continue to decline.
He needs to release financials, move onto a better exchange, and stay on top of his promises.
Taken from IHUB:
1) No 123 sation deal 2) No RCN expansion that was "iminent" according to your written words. 3) No Liz Taylor tribute 4) No Morning show, whatever the hell the are gonna call it. No sponsors ever announced for the show. 5) No other cities for the road show isnpite of only 1 of the original 2 months remaining, except for the one city that Frank happens to LIVE IN (how convenient) 6) No talk of the "programming deals" announced by Rene after NCTA. 7) No superbowl coverage.
I want it to go up just as much as you do, but there is a lot of work that needs to be done.
Good questions - the truth does hurt but if you have been in this one for a while, you get use to the screw ups and missed dates. That's how Frank runs the ship. If you don't like it, jump overboard.

Ghosty, I know that this comment was focused at me, yes I am still here and yes you are still the Village Idot. The difference between you and I is that I play stock for fun and a pastime, I have a very profitable profession but in your case you depend on the market each and every day to sustain your life. So I can afford to wait, but I believe its not the same for you.

4/21/2005 - RE: Oxygen
Investors,
I just wrapped-up a meeting with management regarding Oxygen. Obviously, another delay has occurred due to conflicts with pending agreements. Potential carriers that want to air Q On The Move are allowing the infomercial on Oxygen to take place, but do not want that specific show aired. This means Q will have to run another segment more in line with what the carriers want.
Understand that these spots have been paid for from April 1 through June 30. That said, Q wants these spots aired just as quickly as the investors.
I will update as I receive information.
Posted by Doctoall on :
Today, I sent a copy of the e-mail with all the repeated questions to Richard at IR, just so that he could see what's being posted. I send him copies of post so that he can keep in touch and very often, soon afterwards we get a PR or response posted on the "Q" website.
I hear people asking just what he does, well he states that today he answered 200-250 e-mails and took about 50-60 phone calls from investors. So just that you know they do listen to what the shareholders are saying and they do care about the shareholders.
Sometimes we just have to wait and be patient for answers and sometimes we get answers that we don't like, but because we believe in this stock we stay invested and we will gain in the end.
This is not a stock where you you will make bank daytrading, so I do not know why certain posters even bother. Unless they see all the good news as I am certain they do and show up to make a buck.
Maybe the bashers are a good sign that we are due for a run and will make bank soon. So lets hope that their annoying presence is a good sign.

No offense, but I question your knowledge of carriers, networks, and advertisements. Carriers do not go through every ad package a network has and pick and choose what is advertised.

Ricardo and docforall and possibly a few others are pumping this stock meaninglessly. They are basically calling anyone that is shaky or concerned a "basher". They also seem to think that it isn't a big deal that Q-Tv advertisements are being paid for on Oxygen but have not been running.
Legitimate emails and phone calls have been returned. The only people that claim to be able to get a hold of management are the ones pumping the stock. Imagine that!
Don't get me wrong, I'm invested. But I'm INVESTED. I'm in QBID for the long haul, not to see the stock climb .0007 and then sell to make a measly 33% or whatever.

Posted by g-invest on :
Ok, sorry Ricardo, I'm sure you're vested in QBID just as I am, but there are a lot of posts on here that say nothing but "X is a basher, LOLLERSKATES, GO QBID!". I just thought you guys were being rather rude to individuals like StealX and ghosty who are still hoping for QBID to succeed, they are just realistic in their outcomes/predictions.
I mean, to be honest, this stock rises on real news like the gay games and possible acquisition of pridevision, and falls on crap. When I see people talking all happy about some stupid PR about SCENE magazine and speculation from other forums, it really makes me wonder if these people are in it for the long haul or just want to prevent those of us accumulating from month to month from getting a legitimate buy-in.
I only get paid once a month, so seeing QBID overvalued at .0030 when it should be lower (at least till the Oxygen network runs their ads) really bothers me. I hope those of you who get a chance to accumulate do exactly that and don't sell when the ads finally do run.

I've been in QBID for awhile now. I've seen it run, I've seen seen it fall, I've seen it do absolutely nothing at all! This stock is so predictable. Call me a pumper, but if the price drops lower I'm going to buy more shares. It won't be this low forever, guys. Invest at your own discretion, but honestly, I'm not worried at all. Yeah, it would be nice to show green right now, but I know it's going to go up again and I can wait. But hey, if some of you can't handle it then by all means sell. I'm not trying to throw my confidence on you. Do whatever you want, but please stop crying about it already. It's getting really annoying.

Viacom to Buy Q in June
My husband's best friend from college who works for Viacom in New York said that Viacom was going to buy Q along with all its programming and staff who want to make the change over to Logo.
Viacom has been footing the bills of Q for the last several months and is paying for Q advertisments. Viacom is footing the salary for the big names who have joined the Q team the last couple of months. You all know it takes money to get big names. Viacom wants Q to be as strong as possible before the buy out. The stronger Q looks at the time of the announcment the easier for the transition. Viacom wants Q to be at ever major event before the buy out to get the word out about Gay television.
This is why Q has not been looking to get up on any carriers at this time. Oxygen is being paid by viacom to run Q on the move to promote the show before the buy out. Q on the move will be fully backed by viacom along with all Q's live programming. Viacom is again paying Q bills and paid for the NCTA boths. Many of the new employees that have signed on with Q is because of the Viacom deal.
Many from Viacom are starting to buy shares of Q since word has leaked out. Jim said Q stock price should increase when Viacom announces the Deal the 1st of June. The deal is worth billions from what Jim was told. Frank and staff will be moved into the logo family. The main goal of frank and Summer Redstone is to get a strong and Family channel up and running for the GLBT community.
We have been friends with Jim for over 12 years and he knows what he is talking about. I read alot of stuff on this board and call it a rumor for now but, wait and watch. June will be big for Q viewers who want to watch a great channel for the GLBT community.
Hope this helps I am very excited for many of my friends are gay and I think this is a needed thing for them.

Ghosty, it is self-evident that you own no shares of QBID stock. Who in their right mind would bash a stock that they own? However, if you do own shares and continually choose to bash the company, then I really have no idea what is wrong with you, but I can safely say losing money is the least of your problems right now. I suggest you do one of the following:
1. Get your head examined. 2. Get a life. 3. Get lost.

News from the future, year 2010.
The Palm Springs Police force has just broken into the offices of Q Television Network using a search warrant (brought about by angry family members of QBID shareholders as the shareholders all reside in mental institutions for spending the last 5 years checking for QBID Pr's on a 24/7 basis, the elusive BIG PR, the Holy Grail of PRs, that would supposedly improve their lifes ten-fold).
The police could only find a few recordings of QLive that played over continously on an offshore web-site and was never actually seen on TV. Also found on the wall was a picture of George Michael and George W. Bush holding hands as they both found out that they have something in common.
As for Frank Olsen, he is the richest man in the world living on the Cook Islands for tax protection. His favorite quote is "Thank God for QBID shareholders continously hyping my company so I could sell billions of shares for me and my friends". It was reported he gave $10 million to AIDS research.
William Shatner, asked to comment on the situation stated "I have experienced this phenomena before, could it be that today's Qbidians are yesterday's Trekkies?"
GOOOO QQQQQ, may you live long and prosper! May the PR's be with you! Just hurry up, will ya

Chicago is next, then Phili!
Here is my reasoning, I've been wrong before!
1)Someone said earlier that the website changed. It was said Q television removed phili and chicago to request carriers.
2)If anybody writes RCN, John will reply telling you that Q Television will be offered(philly and chicago), but not sure exactly when. I replied making sure it was not an auto generated email, and it was not. I got a real human reply answering my questions(but he couldn't answer when Q television will air).
3)If you go back and read Frank's old PR(--Oct. 20, 2004): "It is so exciting to see my dream becoming a reality," said Frank Olsen, President and CEO of Q Television Network. "As I have said time and time again, our goal is to provide quality community programming for the gay, lesbian and the curious audience. Our next targeted city is Chicago, IL."
4)Q television ran into agreement issues with Carriers about Oxygen...well it makes sense if you have Q television as a subscription service on one channel, and free on another (both promoting a good show). ...don't get me wrong, I do find it strange the way Q handled this screw up with investors.
5)Chicago Games! (no brainer)
Its also good to know that Frank said about 6 months ago we are going to start to be a reporting company. Strangly, about 6 months later we got an acutal update saying we are in the final stages or becoming a reporting company.

how long have you been here? we have been here for a lot longer and have seen Ghosty perform on many occations and on several stock boards.
No one is being called a basher that has not earned it.
Ask Ghosty how many times he has been kicked or locked out from posting here.
ask him how many of his posts have been deleted.
better yet dont bother he will not admit to that.
we appreciate your statement, but have been here long enough to be able to call a spade a spade.

I just thought you guys were being rather rude to individuals like StealX and ghosty who are still hoping for QBID to succeed, they are just realistic in their outcomes/predictions.
I mean, to be honest, this stock rises on real news like the gay games and possible acquisition of pridevision, and falls on crap. When I see people talking all happy about some stupid PR about SCENE magazine and speculation from other forums, it really makes me wonder if these people are in it for the long haul or just want to prevent those of us accumulating from month to month from getting a legitimate buy-in.
I only get paid once a month, so seeing QBID overvalued at .0030 when it should be lower (at least till the Oxygen network runs their ads) really bothers me. I hope those of you who get a chance to accumulate do exactly that and don't sell when the ads finally do run.

----> yes they did and they are still working with there uplink
• Q Television Network announced today that it has hired Rubenstein Associates, Inc. to help build Q Television Network's profile.
----> yup acurate
• 9-23-04 - Q Television Network today announced that its board of directors approved the first round of buy-backs for QBID common stock, beginning with two percent of its outstanding shares of common and/or preferred stock within the next six weeks.
----> yup they did that and it is now finished.
• 9-2004 – “The company is a pink sheet which we plan on taking forward reporting. We’re in the process of doing that” (but then you say it’s highly unlikely you can’t pass an audit?)
----> and now they are saying that they are going forward with it. they could not pass the audit at that time. whats the problem there. you have invested in a pink sheet that is not required to report.
• 9-2004 – “we’ll be a reporting company probably within 6 months”
----> they are still working on it, we are at 7 months already they have had many delays that would push this to the background of importance. whats the point in reporting till you are up and running and making revenues.
• 9-2004 – “We should be showing profit within 12-13 months”

----> ok now that is a triple post

• 11-10-04 - The network secured $1 Million plus in sponsorships and also signed up several hundred potential subscribers. (more potential subscribers)
----> double posted yet again.
• 12-10-04 - Q Television Network announced today that the company has completed its repurchase of company stock. (no proof for shareholders)
----> what do you want for proof? a reciept maybe? woudl you like to go see the bank account? no proof that you have an education or have bought any Q shares.
• 12-14-04 - Frank Olsen, will retire 1,000,000,000 shares of his personal QBID stock. The retirement of the stock will occur in pre-set blocks over the next two months. (never heard anything after that)
----> and we have been given a pr stating that this is now complete.
2005:
• Good Morning Gay America?
• reached an agreement with a Washington State television station?
----> you saying they did not?
• Cover the Gay Side of the Super Bowl
---->they never stated when they are airing this coverage. they only stated that they where there to cover it. they may release that next year. or nesxt decade. They where there and taped it, i saw clips of it on Q-live

Anyone Is May 1 confirmed for Oxygen airing? I don't get excited about announced dates and don't worry about missed dates . . . too many good reasons why events don't happen as planned.

New Channels Seek Gay Audience
By DAVID BAUDER The Associated Press
NEW YORK -- Three new TV networks catering to gay and lesbian viewers are trying to establish themselves and all say they support one another -- at least publicly.
Competition breeds interest and shows doubters the business is viable, said Frank Olsen, president of the Q Television Network. He once applied the same theory when he owned four gay and lesbian bars near each other in Seattle.
"I think there's room for all three of us," said Olsen, whose network is the underdog of the trio. "We're different types of channels, just like you have ABC, NBC and CBS."
Sure to be the most visible is MTV Networks' Logo, scheduled to start as a basic cable network on June 30. Q and Here are both pay services operating now and available to a limited number of viewers.
(Neither Bright House Networks nor Comcast offer these networks to Polk subscribers yet.
"We don't have any plans to add them at this time, but we are always surveying our customers to find out what channels and programming are of interest to them," said Dan Ballister, Bright House's Tampa Bay spokesman.)
The gay and lesbian community has been underserved by the media and these channels are long overdue, said Damon Romine, entertainment media director for the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.
"There's definitely an audience out there that is hungry to see their stories being told," he said. "We've seen this with the tremendous success of `Queer as Folk' and `The L Word.' "
Logo has two original series that will be ready this summer. One is "Noah's Arc," about a black gay screenwriter from California and his friends, and the other is "My Fabulous Gay Wedding," a comic makeover reality show.
Otherwise, Logo will rely heavily on movies and documentaries until it is better established. Logo has acquired the rights to films such as "Angels in America" and "Moulin Rouge," and has documentaries about a gay rugby team in Chicago and the gay rodeo circuit.
"It will be programmed to the sensitivity of a basic cable audience," said Nicole Browning, president of MTV Networks' affiliate sales and marketing unit.
Logo's ride to reality hasn't exactly been smooth. It spent years on parent company Viacom's back burner, and already has seen its starting date postponed from February. This year's delay was partly to get more programming in place but was also because it only had agreements to be in 2 million to 3 million of the nation's nearly 110 million television homes.
Browning was quoted recently as saying she had found some resistance to the idea of a gay and lesbian network in meetings with cable or satellite providers. One executive threatened resignation if Logo were launched in the company's territory. She downplayed that in a subsequent interview.
"While there may be some initial trepidation, once they really understand what we're doing, the breadth of the audience and the breadth of the programming, they understand there is a great business opportunity," she said.
She said Logo will begin in 10 million homes, a significant percentage of the roughly 45 million homes with digital service. Logo isn't trying to reach analog homes.
Political trepidation is one of the reasons Paul Colichman, Here's CEO believes his business plan is superior. Interested viewers can subscribe to Here full time, for an evening or for individual programs.
"Unless you want the channel, you don't receive it," he said.
Colichman claims ownership of the largest gay and lesbian film library in the country, with such titles as "The Crying Game," "Longtime Companion" and "Gods and Monsters," which he produced. He has original series on gay families, how gay couples met and a supernatural soap opera called "Dante's Cove."
"Look at HBO and Showtime and what they do and compare it to a basic cable channel, and that's where you will see the difference between Here and Logo," he said.
Roughly 80 percent to 85 percent of homes with digital satellite or cable can order Here, he said.
But Browning noted there's a big difference in visibility between an advertiser-supported network like Logo, which will be seen continually in millions of homes, and a subscriber service whose audience is likely to only count in the thousands at any given time.
Q is aggressively marketing itself but, to date, is only available on the small RCN satellite service. Olsen said it would be available in 16 million homes by June. Olsen concedes his rivals have shut him out of the market for many films.
It has a documentary series, "In FoQus," which is preparing a tribute to Elizabeth Taylor, and a morning talk show that recently changed its name from "Good Morning Gay America" to "Gay Day" after representatives of ABC's "Good Morning America" threatened legal action, he said.
When Viacom announced it was going ahead with Logo, Olsen said he started getting phone calls from cable companies returned.
"Having a company like Viacom validate the niche automatically made the concept of a gay-oriented channel more viable," Colichman said.

It seems like a good idea to me, if like you said it's legal. I was on the RCN website yesterday and noticed that of all the cities and states it operates in only San Francisco, New York, and Massachusetts carry Q Television. I'm sure it probably has something to do with seeing how gay TV will do in markets that are more accepting of that kind of programming or something, but I was wondering what a group of investors like us could do to try and get them to start broadscasting to Chicago, Philly, Washington D.C., etc.

Dear Mr. Craig: I would truly appreciate it if your new television company OutTV would start carrying the original programming of Q Television out of Palm Springs. I am a viewer of Q and I must say that their programming is awesome. I feel that the Canadian viewers would truly appreciate what this company has done to promote the GBLT life style.
Please consider carrying the “Q”. I am confident that your company stands to gain by the broadcasting of Q Television.

That's really cool. That banner cost some money to make. The other logo items and just the event itself must have cost quite a bit too. My faith in the company is still there, I'm just really burnt on the delay for the Oxygen ads. I hope they plan on airing them before the end of the month.
Posted by stashu on :
I know I don't post much here but I was just thinking about this Oxygen/Carrier thing. If the Oxygen spots are to be used as "infomercials for the viewer", then some action by the viewer will be expected at the end of these infomercials. "Call your local cable company to subscribe, etc." I doubt if they would run these and then ask the viewer to "Call your local cable company and ask them to think about providing Q to its viewers". Now no way would they would run these spots as "infomercials for the carrier", to attract carriers. That would be akin to running an ad in a newspaper saying "carriers wanted". Potential carriers have access to the programming that Q offers already. Now I would hope that the first scenario is true, but another possibility is that these spots are being used as a gauge of public reaction before a carrier signs on the dotted line.
Regardless, it shall be clear at the end of the first infomercial when we see what kind of action the viewer is asked to take.
Posted by Dustoff101 on :
whizknock....you say a run is due, but you don't know why?...Thats called instincts,,man I am with ya..
Posted by LEO on :
Dustoff, yesterday you wrote that this is an emotional stock, which I agree with. It's part of what is so interesting about owning shares in it. You said that the MM's were taking advantage of this to walk down the pps so as to accumulate more because they know something. I'm wondering, do you think that they possibly know something specific that we don't know, or could know with better DD, or do you think they are going by their instincts. Good posts by the way.
Posted by Dustoff101 on :
LEO....They know something, you can bet your you know what on it...I don''t think it's the stardard DD info us little guys can find...Also it's just that I got this strong hunch [[ fishermans luck probably ]]... I have had it all week-end..I hope my hunch ain't GREED!!
I know thats a screw-ball stock analysis, but I just can't shake this feeling..
It's just that this stock is way oversold and in combination with PPS I think it's a no brainer this baby is gonna run!!!!
Posted by LEO on :
I'm married to a commercial salmon fisherman and I trust her hunches, they are usually right on the money. I like your analysis, even if it is screw-ball, I have the same feeling. I'm holding on tight here for that run, good luck!
Posted by Rich735 on :
Man I hope your hunches make us bunches$$$$$LOL!! At this point all of us longs are emotionally in this stock.Which I hear isn't good...oh well. I know you aren't suppose to fall in love with your stock either...but. This is possibly going to be a life changing event if she pans out for us. So I am a little in love.Stop!!!! I am not Pumping in anyway!!Wanted to make that clear.
I think stashu has a good brainstorm. We have had 2 delays in airing on O. That may be a good thing,because Q wants to do the right thing for the carrier...carrier? IMHO I think we have several lookers if not inked projects. 200 CEO's at the NCTA. Something is up,I'm glad I am in low and am ready for the ride.
Don't let us down Q!! Take off baby!!

I think a good DD would be we can all focus on how long before we are on the OTBB. As for charting, history will repeat itself and we will hit most likely .0022 to .002 before we move up. Charts are not nearly as accurate for pennies.

must be pumper week, all came out of the woods.

Dusty(that is easier to type..LOL),
Not to butt in your imakmony question,but I am only speculating on a run next week. My reason is because we didn't get the BIG pr everyone is waiting for. All we got was the magazine pr which was better than nothing.
I just wander if it is going to be slow pr release until we get onto an exchange? And when will we be on that exchange? 30 days? 1 year? Only Frank and company know.

IMO we will should get a PR on Monday, regarding clarification on Oxygen, or possible a PR regarding OutTV/Pridevision. OutTv will be making that decision to carry "Q" soon and that will be huge for us.
Go Qbid!!!!! Long, strong and accumulating Posted by ghosty on :
Today a Long Black Candlestick was formed. This shows that the prices declined significantly from open to close during the day under strong selling pressure.
Our system posted a WAIT today. The previous SELL recommendation that was confirmed was made on 03.23.2005 (32) days ago, when the stock price was 0.0034. Since then QBID has fallen -26.47% .
Frustrated, why do you think that. First you cry because we "pump"(Look forward to a better Q) then cry because we deny it. We can't even discuss Q without idiots like you saying we are pumpers. You are a basher and suck at that! Get lost little boy!

lol, so funny you get mad when people call you a pumper yet you think it's ok to bash people and call them bashers? pot kettle. i understand you are mad because you and a few others can't pump this stock past .02 so you can sell, but please dont attack others. Posted by ghosty on :
and as far as dustoff101 is, might want to be careful following his advice...
I am not selling for years if I have to wait that long. And I am not one bit mad,it is pretty cool you can read my typing and tell the world of my mood. How about using your powers to tell when to sell!!
You are probably a daytrader,and looking to make a quick $100 on a mil shares. I myself am investing for the long haul.
I reread this and I can't see any pumping or temper problems. Hope you don't call me a pumper I might cry like you!

Rich, good question, but I think you have to turn off your common sense...And think in wild speculatively terms...Why do any of these Pinks run? News, yes,but as I have previously stated I got a hunch, based on the behavior of the MM'S and PPS this stock will run..
The PPS is just to low for the traders to miss it...The MM'S walked it down so they could buy cheap shares and plenty of um..If the MM'S let it go, it's gone..

Classic pumping. Watch out.

I have a hunch that this will jump up between Wednesday and Friday. We'll have to wait and see.
Posted by Peaser01 on :
You've been buying CHIT again haven't you.
Posted by Peaser01 on :
Ummm....... You haven't figured out that we were bored on Saturday since there was no open market, huh?
Common sense is a gift that only a few posess I guess.
Good luck with your future stock picks.
Eat up all the CHIT you can buy.

Thanks Peaser, that ghosty needs to be ignored. I look forward to a big pr this week. Hope Frank doesn't let us down.

Ghosty, I've noticed you waste much of your life on message boards bashing QBID. How about trying something productive for a change? Unless of course you consider this to be a productive lifestyle...
Posted by Rich735 on :
Good one PTD,
You can't even express your feelings about QBID without being labeled a pumper. I am excited as most of the longs are but, don't want to come off as a pumper.
Posted by Peaser01 on :
I'm not "pumping" either. I do think that there may be some speculative buyers at the end of the week though with hope of going live on the O.
The MM's are controlling this I believe and buying up shares at or below the ask to get ready for the next run up IMHO.

LOL. Actually Daytrading could be a profitable way to go referring to the charts. It seems to bounce once in a while. It may be wise to buy it low, and sell it when it is high, then wait a few weeks and buy back twice as many shares. Thinking out loud.

hey im in a great mood today. I placed an order for my new truck on Friday.
I bought a F150 supercrew XLT fully loaded 4 wheel drive with all the gadgets and extras like tonnue cover and bed liner and remote start crome tubular running boards keyless entry and on and on and on.
i take deliver in 7 weeks. it will be a joy to hand over the keys to my 2003 windstar sport and get into the new beast. I missed my truck since i traded my 2001 F150 in on the windstar.
its going to be a very long 7 weeks though waiting for it to come in.
it will be nice to haul the large bank deposit to the bank when the Q finally gives us our bank

I agree and someday may try it. But I don't think it is a good idea to frustrate people by calling them pumpers all day when you yourself(ghosty) are bashing the stock to buy in at lower prices.
Hopefully most daytraders read charts and buy using there skills not by the tactics ghosty and other fools do!

Bash this stock all you want, when it takes off you will wish you had more. Only a matter of time, and based on what I heard, that time is soon.

besides the truck suites me better
the Chrysler 300 was what we where going to get but decided to go this route instead.
I got a 47 G truck for 42. they are hurting for sales right now. I have the dealership in my town begging me to take the info in to them to see if they can do better. im not going to though because they have treated me poorly in the past.

lol no he didn't i never seen that thread before and as soon as i started reading it I got the fact that it was a joke.
my god how would you not catch CHIT. lol
But i gave him the benefit of the doubt and read on. then when POOP was brought up I thought OH MY GOD he still hasn't got it.
then i came back to the thread and posted a comment to him about it. then kept reading on.
it was explained to him in this thread that it was a joke, and he still has not got it and makes yet another post about it. lol
I'm pissing my self here laughing as i type this message my dog is looking at me like I'm a lunatic, I'm laughing so hard.
I wish now that i had not put him on the ignore list to see what he has been typing about this.

Ghosty, if you're reading this, you should probably give up already. You're not very successful on here. You're not very successful anywhere for that matter. When you bash QBID, it gives investors something to laugh about, not something to stress over.

No offense, but ghosty has been speaking his mind too. You guys call it bashing, but in reality, he's made some very legitimate arguments. New investors need to be aware that this isn't the first time that the company has looked at moving to a new exchange, and this very well may not be the last. They might not actually move over to the OTCBB for a year or so. Although, I really think they need to be on the OTCBB and fully reporting by the time LOGO goes live.
Also, there's a lot of repeated scam posts on this thread from IHUB about a proposed buyout from Viacom. I just saw this scam pump post again recently. People should be very aware that the potential for this stock to run is great, but that investors generally want to avoid seeing pumpers in their stocks.
I'm waiting for this stock to run and STAY there. That's not going to happen with a PR. That's only going to happen with a move to a new exchange and a fully-reporting company.
They now have about 3 to 6 billion shares outstanding, so they could easily move to a new exchange if they wanted to.

Well, I can't argue that. However, I am going to have to disagree with the first part of your post though. Ghosty does not have legitimate arguments, he just bashes and then makes comments like "next week it'll run, get 'em while you can." He is here for his own entertainment only. He says he has free shares, but in all honesty, I don't believe he has any. He just likes causing trouble and we don't need people like that here. Aside from that though, your point is a good one. New investors should be aware of the risks for any stock they may buy.
Also, how do you know QBID has three to six billion outstanding shares?

all he does is post questions with no interest in listening to the answers. flip flop and crap.

G-invest how long have you been in this stock?
the reason i ask it this.
newly invested people in this stock get upset at delays. I understand that as i was the same when i first got into this stock. i have however been here long enough to see many many many delays over and over again. the point is that the longer you hold this, the more you realise that the plans do happen, most times not on schedual, but they always happen if they pr them.
i do not get wound up anymore on delays as they are going to happen over and over again. It is very common place in the media industry.
this is a long hold and it doesnt really matter anymore to me if they miss a date here and there.
in the end Frank has a pile of his own cash into this thing and he is not about to walk away from this company and leave that money behind. I will guaranty you that it not even a possibility that he would concider.
in order for Frank to succeed on this we have to get paid as well.
this company will succeed and we will all be rewarded for it.
if you are bothered by it too much then you should pull out and move to where you are more comfortable.

No offense but, we have not hit .01 yet and there is no proof that the private investors have stopped buying. There is also no proof they started yet either. I am sure if they are buying up shares, they too will have target prices getting the most for their buck. Only a smart investor would think like that. Who also is to say they have not purchased all they can afford. Frank did not put a dollar cap on the total to be purchased or a total volume that would be purchased. Sometimes you need to look beyond the scope of things to find an answer or another question for the question. Spok did.

Well, I started think this morning about get some info for the echange proceedures and decided to email the law firm. The email goes as follows:
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am enquiring on the complications of moving a stock from the pink sheets to the OTCBB exchange. As to be up front with you, I have a vested interest in one of your clients, Triangle Multi-media, Q Television or as the listed sign QBID as on the pink sheets. I fully understand that the info with relation to Q television can not be released, but only enquiring only in the processes or complications of the scenario for the movement.
Many thanks for any info you can supply,

For those questioning whether or not about investor buying as Frank had indicated, many large chunks are flowing through this morning that may indicate just that.

I guess no one liked my earlier Rhyme message. It has been too quiet, ghosty is going for therapy and I just feel something is fixing to happen. Don't ask Why, being a novice Investor I just have a feeling, which I am entitled to. Ricardo
Posted by Ricardo on :
Just my personal view as an Investor. This can not drag on for any extended period of time. It will happen or it will not happen. The last time my personal portfolio got this low we had a substantial run upwards. It could be in the works or then again it might be over. Ricardo

it could be someone selling off and dumping their shares

Yes the volume is low, still early in Cali and we could get a PR today. We sould be hearing from the proposal of OutTV/Pridevision.

And I have bought even more shares today Posted by Ligge on :
I wish I could get some more. All my current holdings are in the red at the moment. I sold off the remaining greens last week and got more at .0026. Ugh.
All tapped out until something pops. I almost wish it was something else besides Q so I could get in more at this level.
Posted by Doctoall on :
I know that I keep saying this. The programming grid for both OutTV and Pridevision is very limited, on the OutTv grid it does not even go past Tuesday April 26th. Could something big be happening with the "Q"'s offer to air programming in Canada. Come on OutTV make us an offer that we can't refuse
GO QBID!!!!!!

Time for another accumulation buy. Just big enough to justify buying more and still keep powder dry for possible continued dip. Others are giving in & that's the time for me to accumulate if I believe in a stocks potential.
Do I still believe?
Let me go over my check list!
(1) Do they have a product or service?
(2) Is it a quality product or service?
(3) Is it a marketable product or service?
(4) Are there precedents, companies that provide the same kind of product or service?
(5) Do most if not all these companies trade for over a dollar a share?
(6) What differentiates my prospect from these other companies?
(7) Do they have a target demographic?
(8) Does that demographic have the means to support the product?
(9) Where does the commercial community stand, do Fortune 500 Companies want to reach the prospect's target demographic?
(10) Can the prospect deliver an effective avenue for the major corporations to reach this market?
(11) Do they have sponsors?
(12) What's the possible impact of their primary competition & will my prospect have the lead in the market?
(13) Does this prospect have management with a proven track record of not only running a company but actually bringing a company to market, making it successful & profiting from this endeavor.
And most importantly one personal question,,,
(14) Do I have the discipline, willingness & conviction to maintain a large core position in this company when I identify it.

We need REAL info right now like the share structure and financial numbers.. How many people are subscribing to Q and how much they are making.. We need to know how they are financing Q in detail.. it there toxic funding?? How much is Q management getting paid? S-8's? 504's? CD's? Whats going on inside the structure of Q... Thats what is important right now as far as a persons investment goes here..

Has Richard Browns number changed? The number on the site is 617-314-7379. I have the feeling the original number was something like 908 or something. Am I wrong and that has always been the correct number?
I just called and instead of being routed to his cell phone it sent me to a general mailbox for equity relations. No mention of Richard Brown in the mailbox recording. Did the number change? Matt

Hey Matt. It's good to see you back. As for the telephone number, I'm really not sure. I just checked the Equity Relations website and the number is the same as you listed. It's funny you say "908" because that is my area code. It's a northern New Jersey area code, and Equity Relations has offices in Massachusetts and Florida only, so I doubt that could be it. I could be wrong though.
Posted by Pitchinpennies on :
Matt - The number I had for Richard was 978-767-0048
Posted by permanentjaun on :
Thats what it was. I wonder why they changed it on Q's website. Perhaps too many calls to Richard?
Although he is there to answer questions his main position is to bring in large investors. I wonder if he is focusing simply on that now that big things may be happening. With a move to a different exchange many larger investors could very easily be interested in joining the fun.
The glass half empty approach is that he is hiding from us. I don't see that as being the case since if someone that only has a few thousand, even $40,000, could do much to affect Q if their operations are costing millions.
I will email Richard before calling the 978 number. Don't get in the way of a working man. Matt
P.S. - PTD - I've been here all along lurking. I'll chime in when appropriate.
Posted by buckwheatbob on :
If you hate math...skip this post...
I just got back from dinner with some fellow QBID investors. The topic of QBID's future pps popped up...and from our discussion...this is what we came up with...keep in mind that three of the other investors are very conservative engineers...You should have seen the table clothe when we were done...chicken scratch everywhere...lol
1 Year PPS projection
20-30 Million Gays and Lesbians in the US (that are out of the closet...this is a very conservative stat)
3% ROI (marketing effort)= 900,000 subscribers by year 1
900,000 x $9.95 = $8,955,000 x 50% (industry standard...cable companies cut) = $4,477,500/mo or $53,730,000/year
Advertisment/Founding Sponsor program...20 spots at $250,000 per advertiser or $5,000,000/year
Industry average is $2,500.00 per commercial x 8-10 commercials per hour or $20,000 per hour x 8760 hours per year (24/7 programming) = $175,200,000/year
Total Revenue
$53,730,000 (subscription per year based on 900K subscribers by year 1) $5,000,000 (Founding Sponsor program based on 20 spots) $175,200,000 (Commercials based on Industry standards of $2500 per commercial/8-10 per hour...24/7 programming)
Total Revenue by year 1
$233,930,000/year
Expenses (assuming 40%)
$93,572,000
Net Operating Income
$140,358,000
Per-share earnings
$140,358,000 / 4.5 Billion (assuming 9 Billion OS...after buyback of 50%) = .0311 earnings per share
assuming a very conservative (S&P) PE ratio of 18 and 20...
P/E of 18 = .56 pps P/E of 20 = .62 pps
However...QBID is a very speculative stock...and could possibly have a P/E ratio of 30, 40 or 50...
P/E of 30 = .93 pps (our pick by year 1) P/E of 40 = $1.24 pps P/E of 50 = $1.55 pps
We agreed that a PE ratio of 30 was very conservative for such a speculative stock...if QBID's soft launch goes off without a hitch...and they PR a major advertiser within one week of the soft launch...our views of QBID being a short term hold will change...we would consider holding a position long term (1-3 years)
.93 x 4.5 Billion = $4.185 Billion Market cap...
At this stage of the game the market cap is the value that the world of stock market investors has placed on the company (at least for today) Much of this perceived value is due to the expectations of a company's future prospects. Market cap is not dictated by how "big" a company is.
Here are some related links on advertising and calculating PE ratios...
buckwheatbob, I'm impressed, if that works I can buy me a place in Brazil I have been looking at. Obrigado, Ricardo

Plug in your own numbers and even if they are even more conservative,you can still come to some reasonable conclusions of your own.

Posted by permanentjaun on :
Well the number listed on the site changed. It was originally the 978 number and is now the 617 number. I'm speaking of what is listed on qtelevision.com. The 978 number would take you directly to Richard Brown but the new number goes to equity relations general numbers. I haven't noticed when this changed but I believe within the last week. Matt

617 is a ma number

978 is as well. Matt
Posted by casper on :
Doc,What did his E-mail say?
Posted by permanentjaun on :
I just received an email from Richard that calls should be made to the 617 number and if he is not the one that answers then just ask for him. Maybe he just got tired of the calls being rerouted to his cell phone. Matt

Hmm that 4/21 PR was there at lunch time too.
Thats weird.
I really hope they dont release any more PRs until something solid is completed and signed. I am still in and I still believe; but I think they are just making things worse as of late in the investor confidence arena.
I dont plan on getting out until they fold up shop or get a real deal as a production company or carrier. Potential is there, they just need to make it happen.
Posted by Marty on :
Personally, I think they will hold off on any PR's unless there is a definitive agreement/info to support it....That of course, would be a better/smarter approach, considering the Oxygen issue....I would hope that management will be *smarter* and have learned from this...I'm just a little concerned they removed the 4/21/05 Oxygen message from here: http://www.qtelevision.com/main/investorinfo.asp
Previously posted "Investor Info" should NOT be removed, unless it was in error...things that make 'ya go hhmmmmmmm...GLTA...

LOL Ligge, 'ya beat me to it Posted by FatherOfTwo on :
I actually hope that wait as well until the day they actually air... they could announce it around open, but of course, if they had an early am time slot, everyone would already know it is true......
That way, the daytraders keep dumping to get out, driving hte price lower, so I can scoop up obscene amounts of Qbid at insanely cheap prices.... Posted by FatherOfTwo on :

well i fully expect that something is in the works. I'm not worried about Oxygen. i don't see that as a pps booster anyway. it gets the word out there but it is a burning of money not a generation of money.
I'm my opinion the real news is the underlying truth about the delays due to potential carriers.
that is the real value that i would like to see out in a pr.
who is complaining and big enough and valuable enough to delay a national airing of an infomercial. my thought is it is a big carrier like direct Tv or Dish. other wise they would only have had to not air on certain areas of the viewing area. in fact the carrier could have arranged to blackout that segment of the Oxygen channel.
My idea is that it has to be a large national carrier that would have problems with them airing the same programming on a free channel. Only satellite has the power when it comes to national viewing in my opinion.

/26/2005 - RE: Infomercial
Dear Shareholders,
The infomercial deal Q Television will be airing was done through a broker who arranges spots with large networks and QTelevision found out yesterday that based upon the type of content that QTelevision airs, some carriers did not feel it was appropriate for people to view on basic cable. That said, Q Televsion has arranged it so that the carriers that are eager to view this professionally produced infomercial will be able to show it and the carriers that feel this type of programming should viewed through subscription only will be satisfied as well. Management is very sorry for the confusion and QTelevision feels to the best of their ability, the investors should always be informed as to the goings on at Q headquarters. Like Q has stated in the past, the deal is done, Q will air for 60 days, twice a day for 30 minutes. Please allow a small window to put this together the way the carriers desire. Management is speaking to many of them and would not want to disrupt the chances of being picked up over an infomercial spot.

Carriers, are interested in what we are doing, well those carriers need to come forth and contract with us, then they can do it their way. I know that Frank cannot push the carriers as we really need them to get this off the ground, But the carriers also need to stop playing with the "Q".

I can't see why an experienced shareholder wouldn't think so. I guess more delays are OK. What if your employeer said you would not get your paycheck for a small amout of time - Would you say it's OK?. The PPS continues to drop taking money out of our pockets. Is that OK?

Management is very sorry for the confusion and QTelevision feels to the best of their ability, the investors should always be informed as to the goings on at Q headquarters. Like Q has stated in the past, the deal is done, Q will air for 60 days, twice a day for 30 minutes. Please allow a small window to put this together the way the carriers desire. Management is speaking to many of them and would not want to disrupt the chances of being picked up over an infomercial spot.
More BS
It really isn't BS. I can see why an inexperienced shareholder would think so, but in all actuality, it really is not BS.
I can't see why an experienced shareholder wouldn't think so. I guess more delays are OK. What if your employeer said you would not get your paycheck for a small amout of time - Would you say it's OK?. The PPS continues to drop taking money out of our pockets. Is that OK?
But this is not Frank's fault. That is what I was getting at.

Reguarding the paycheck issue, this has actually happen in the past back in the 70's, a little known company couldent afford to pay their employees and even asked some of the employees to help pay for some of the company expenses to keep the company afloat... people went for several weeks to a month or 2 without a paycheck...
yeah a littlw known company called Federal Express which now makes billions of dollars and is always in the fortune 500 and 100 top companys in the US. Not bad for starting out not being able to consistanly make payroll Posted by Doctoall on :
Frank would be very wise to listen to the potential carriers, this is not a time for him to balk at the carriers. They have something that we need very bad "national coverage".
Remember the carriers have the power, we have the programming and we need them more than they need us.
Sure Frank could fight with the carriers and be hard nosed and they would close their doors. Or he can play along and get a deal.
I know that I would not be bucking the carriers right now, we could loose it all in a fight that we cannot win. When a bull is in the china shop, the china shop is usually not the winner.
It will take time but it will get done.
Long,strong.holding and accumulating

When the pps drops it's not taking money out of our pockets, it's giving us, as Buckwheat said, a good buying opportunity. When the pps goes up there will be more money in your pocket. When people start freaking out because things don't happen fast enough for them I wonder why they play this game at all. JMHO and GLTA, Go Q!!

I look at all my investments as a paycheck. It's my money. And when I see an opportunity that is mismanaged I get a little hot under the collar. As long as everyone allows Frank to operate as is, nothing will change. Hope that makes sense.

Kerny Help me understand your concerns about QBID. I assume you own some shares and that you are worried about your investment. (Correct me if that is wrong.)
Your comments suggest that you do not understand how the stock market works . . . especially when dealing with startup companies. Is this the first company you have ever invested in? You seem to expect everything to happen as you think it should . . . and that is not reality with any company, including the oldest and best-run ones.
You also blame Frank for every delay. Since none of us knows everything that is going on with QBID's developement, we should not assume every delay is Frank's fault. He may be doing everything right but is facing obstacles that cannot be foreseen. Anyone who has worked in the business world knows that nothing is certain until it happens.
And your analogy about a late paycheck from your employer does not apply here. You may believe Frank owes you a "payday", but he owes you nothing but the "chance" to make money.
Your opinions are welcome, but help us all by providing information we can use.

<b>In April, Rogers-based <b>Multicom Media Group Inc. signed on as an affiliate with Fort Worth's HTVN, one of the largest Spanish-language television networks in the nation. Under that agreement, Multicom Media Group broadcasts HTVN programming over its K20CT channel in Springdale...

Fined $20,000 in Connection with Promissory Note Sales; Order to Cease and Desist Made Permanent
On June 13, 2001, the Commissioner entered an Order Imposing Fine against Sun Broadcasting Systems, Inc. of 1000 East Tahquitz Canyon Way, Palm Springs, California. The Order Imposing Fine, which was uncontested by the firm, assessed a $20,000 penalty. Sun Broadcasting Systems, Inc. had also been the subject of an April 2, 2001 Order to Cease and Desist that was also uncontested and that became permanent on May 15, 2001 and an April 2, 2001 Notice of Intent to Fine. In fining the firm, the Commissioner found that from April 1998 forward, Sun Broadcasting Systems Inc. sold unregistered non-exempt promissory notes to at least one Connecticut investor through one or more unregistered agents of issuer in violation of Sections 36b-16 and 36b-6(b) of the Connecticut Uniform Securities Act. ----------------------
Regardless of the fact that Q Television Network is a private holding, a wholly owned subsidiary that the public, including QBID common shareholders, CANNOT BUY EQUITY IN, is... Can anyone conclude that the above associations may be reason enough why Q has no carriers and - since Frank disclosed in the Wallstreet interveiw that 70% of Q's financing is private (Frank owns 53% of QBID's common stock) and 30% is from "stock proceeds" -
*Q's 75k shares remain unissued with no par value and wholly owned privately by TMM's directors (the shareholders of QTN) - it is QBID stock proceeds that finance Q *
...can't we make the conclusion that QBID's PPS is due to thecash burn of Q and the fact QBID shares are Q's currency, ie DILUTION?
Posted by Bottomliner on :
To all I just re-read the comments I posted today and realize I let some "attitude" slip in a couple times. So I apologize to all. I want this board to be a source of QBID information and opinion, even if I disagree with it, and I don't want to discourage anyone from speaking out.
And remember: Even though the last few days have given us migraines, just think how good we will feel when the pain stops.

You are welcome to post, of course . . . but I just wonder why you do it. If you are that bored, try watching a piss ant eat a bale of hay. Won't be very exciting, but it will occupy your mind for a very long time.

you are here because you see the potential. if you dont then leave. bitching about how he manages the company is not going to do your stock price any good either. Honestly i believe you dont have your shares yet but are trying to drive it a bit lower to get in.
if that is your game you may as well leave this forum as you are not convincing anyone here to sell our shares.

if you actually hold this companys stock then continue to hold. they have made some great progress since January. and i honestly believe from all that i have read, that This company will give us all a payday that you will not believe.
this is not an overnight swing trade. it is a long hold and in the long term, thoses strong enough to hold will be richly rewarded for thier patience.
Remember Frank is the largest share holder and if we dont get paid, he dont get paid.
Frank has a history of starting great stations and selling them for good coin. Give him the room to do what he has to do and you will be glad you did.

Posted by Penny-Trader on :
he cant answer every question. he can only answer what Frank wants us to know. he is holding that information till he is reporting.
the share issue has been laid out many time here now.
but if you want to know what the share structure is do the math in the following
The Outstanding Share Theory
In Februaru 2004 it was noted that there were 15 billion authorized shares with 7.5 billion of those outstanding
To maintain majority vote, Frank Olsen, president owns 53% of the O/S. 3.975 Billion. This leaves 3.525 billion in the float
After a large increase in PPS, Q Television Network, QTN, dilutes the price and releases 2 billion more shares into the outstanding shares from the authorized shares.
After the dilution there are 9.5 billion outstanding shares. Frank owns 53%, or 5.035 billion, and the float is now 4.465 billion.
To expand, QTN receives a loan to acquire movie deals and rights to broadcast the 2006 Gay Games in Chicago. As collateral, QTN creates 6 billion more outstanding shares. Since the original 15 billion authorized shares were not enough to release 6 billion into the outstanding shares, the authorized shares count was increased to 50 billion.
Outstanding shares are now 15.5 billion. Frank still only owns 5.035 billion and the float is still just 4.465 billion. The 6 billion new shares are just for collateral. These 6 billion are restricted shares.
An announced buyback is completed in late December, 2005. Although the official number of shares bought back is not announced, it is speculated that at least 1 billion were bought back.
Therefore there are 3.465 billion in the float, 5.035 billion owned by Frank, and 6 billion restricted shares. We can assume Frank only wants to own 53% of the shares not including the restricted shares. Therefore he can also reduce his share count by 1.128 billion shares to 3.907 billion.
Thus the total, estimated, outstanding share count would be the 6 billion restricted + 3.907 billion of Franks shares + 3.465 billion in the float. Total = 13.372 billion shares outstanding.
After the loan is repaid and there is no need for collateral the 6 billion restricted shares can be destroyed. Future estimated outstanding share count is then 7.372 billion shares.

I like the idea that Frank is listening to who ever the carrier(s) are. He shouldn't do what ever he thinks is right and risk a contract. I am comfortable with Frank and his leadership. I'm not too happy with the pps like everyone else. But look at what is coming. We most likely are oh so close to a carrier,we are aggressively trying to get onto an exchange,and I believe we are still looking at Pridevision.
Remaining patient,thanks impart to a lot of my fellow Qbidians! Great DD everyone and lets keep the big picture in mind.

Rich, imo qbid is changing drastically. Q has shut down the live free feed and chat room which I think is good. Alot of investors are not real happy. I will continue to hold but that is my choice. Don't make any decisions on what I post because it is your money. Personally I see potential. Also don't invest what you can't afford to loose.
Posted by LEO on :
I agree Rich, Frank is doing a fine job. As is pointed out by Whizknock and others, Frank has a history of succesfully building companies and bringing them to market. I trust that he is using his experience to do it again with QBID. As far as the pps goes, I am not unhappy with it being this low because I have not been around here very long and it gives me a chance to accumulate at a low price. Lucky me! GLTA and the day will come when Frank puts all the pieces together and this company really takes off. Until then accumulate while its affordable and GO Q!!!

This Qbiddian is long, strong, holding and accumulation. It's my choice to do so, I feel that this investment will pay big, its just a matter of time nothing more or nothing less.
The "Q" has been on a very long journey and the destination is in sight.
Those who feel that the "Q" is not going anywhere should just sell and move on, as for me I prefer to stay and make some solid bank.
IMO we will get more than enough great news very soon and we will not regret the day that we bought our first shares in this venture.

Simple. Next time it happens I'll sell 1/3 of my shares and let it drop. Then I'll buy back in and either double or triple my original position. Accumulating by any means possible. If I had known how to play QBID since November then I could be sitting on a fairly large position.
The only way I see this trading pattern stopping is when we move to much larger exchanges and o/s numbers are released. Till then the day traders control this stock so you have to join em in a sense. Matt

Dear Mr. Craig: I would truly appreciate it if your new television company OutTV would start carrying the original programming of Q Television out of Palm Springs. I am a viewer of Q and I must say that their programming is awesome. I feel that the Canadian viewers would truly appreciate what this company has done to promote the GBLT life style.
Please consider carrying the “Q”. I am confident that your company stands to gain by the broadcasting of Q Television.
Respectfully Submitted

With all this talk about hiring of a major law firm, moving to an exchange, from non reporting to reporting, share structure, and this and that, i'm sure the PPS will take a dive lower than today's low at 0.0021. By the way, if Frank retires 1 billion shares, one can only imaging how many shares of Q frank had own and whether or not the O/S is over ten billion. (I will only give the poor a dollar if i'm sure that I have twice as much left in my pocket) ouch!
Posted by Slug on :
I read an interesting article in yesterday's Wall Street Journal, It was regarding "Who's going to Win the Living-Room Wars?" This is in reference to the phone companies, the same ones that we have had been hearing rumors on investing in the 'Q'!
Here are the excerpts that I thought were of interest.... "SBC is spending 4 billion over the next three years to string optical-fiber cable to neighborhoods totaling as many as 18 million homes"
"Meanwhile, Verizon will spend $6 billion over five years to bring fiber directly to as many as 16 million in its service areas"
"the telecoms have only just begun to sign content deals to deliver programs."
After reading this article one can see that there are big changes for TV Land in the near future. You have PC companies getting in, Phone companies getting in and the current Cable companies and Satellite companies that are going to be competing for our business. To make themselves unique they will need unique programming, programming that our "Q" can provide (in my eyes at least). Which is why you are hearing about a "phone company" investing in Q. Who knows who else is???
Posted by Doctoall on :
I just signed up for a new Broadband service, Internet, Voip, Digital TV and decided to send them an e-mail asking about "Q", and this is the reply. Surewest is now covering a major part of Sacramento, CA as well as the Sacramento Valley and has become the major threat to Concast in this area.
Dr.*******
We always continue to look at ways to improve our programming. When I inquired about this channel with our Marketing group, they indicated that they have some knowledge of Q Television, but have not considered adding this channel thus far. They will take a closer look at this channel moving forward, but I cannot give you any definitive information at this time.

Karen: Are you aware of any plans that Surewest may have to carry the Qtelevision Network (Palm Springs, CA) programming on the Surewest system. I would like to see the programming of QTelevision on our system. I feel that it would create a niche market for us investors and that their programming would be a benefit to our GBLT community in the Sacramento Valley area.
Please advise me if Surewest has been in contact with Qtelevision Network to inquire if their programming may become available.
Thanks You

Wow, lots of QBID shareholders seem to be Holdem players too . . . I wonder if that means anything?
This may not be logical, reasonable or sane, but I trade stocks like I play Holdem: I only play solid hole cards, I only risk what I can afford to lose, I only stay in the game if the pot odds are in my favor, I seldom bluff, and I never let anyone bluff me out of a pot (they have to have the cards to beat me).
Right now, I am playing QBID, the flop has improved my hand dramatically, the turn card is about to hit the table, and the pot odds are well worth the risk.
And yes, like many gamblers, I believe I have mystic powers that tell me when a good card is coming. I have such feelings now.

this may help you to figure out how many Frank has
this is from Matts sight
The Outstanding Share Theory
In Februaru 2004 it was noted that there were 15 billion authorized shares with 7.5 billion of those outstanding
To maintain majority vote, Frank Olsen, president owns 53% of the O/S. 3.975 Billion. This leaves 3.525 billion in the float
After a large increase in PPS, Q Television Network, QTN, dilutes the price and releases 2 billion more shares into the outstanding shares from the authorized shares.
After the dilution there are 9.5 billion outstanding shares. Frank owns 53%, or 5.035 billion, and the float is now 4.465 billion.
To expand, QTN receives a loan to acquire movie deals and rights to broadcast the 2006 Gay Games in Chicago. As collateral, QTN creates 6 billion more outstanding shares. Since the original 15 billion authorized shares were not enough to release 6 billion into the outstanding shares, the authorized shares count was increased to 50 billion.
Outstanding shares are now 15.5 billion. Frank still only owns 5.035 billion and the float is still just 4.465 billion. The 6 billion new shares are just for collateral. These 6 billion are restricted shares.
An announced buyback is completed in late December, 2005. Although the official number of shares bought back is not announced, it is speculated that at least 1 billion were bought back.
Therefore there are 3.465 billion in the float, 5.035 billion owned by Frank, and 6 billion restricted shares. We can assume Frank only wants to own 53% of the shares not including the restricted shares. Therefore he can also reduce his share count by 1.128 billion shares to 3.907 billion.
Thus the total, estimated, outstanding share count would be the 6 billion restricted + 3.907 billion of Franks shares + 3.465 billion in the float. Total = 13.372 billion shares outstanding.
After the loan is repaid and there is no need for collateral the 6 billion restricted shares can be destroyed. Future estimated outstanding share count is then 7.372 billion shares.

Have any of you actually became millionares from QBID or are we all just waiting for it to skyrocket
Posted by jmcmanna on :
Here's some positive food for thought for everyone . . . looking back on the charts for both XM Satellite Radio (XMSR) and Sirius satellite radio(SIRI), both of them had charts that kind of look like QBID's. Both of these stocks slowly fell waaaay down (around $1, maybe less) a few years ago, then shot up like rockets (you know where they are at now). I know it's somewhat of an apples to oranges comparison, but I think we can make some comparisons too. So if history repeats itself in this sense, things are looking good.

YES. April of LAST YEAR many many QBID faithfull were pleasantly rewarded when QBID went from .0020 to .028 or there abouts. Many were ranting about HOW THEY NOW HAD ENOUGH TO BUY A FERRARI or a NEW HOME with CASh that they made from QBID. I was there last year. I made only a few Grand because I only held 100,000 shares. WOW what a RIDE it was !!! I PERSONALLY TURNED 100's of dollars into 1000's.
I hope this Company can actually PULL IT OFF !!! This YEAR has been pretty RED these past months. I NEED A WINNER !! DONT WE ALL ??
The Earth_Man has SPOKEN !
Posted by buckwheatbob on :
I would like to give everyone some food for thought once QBID does start to climb:
1/ Set your targets (Realistic ones)
2/ When you you are able to take out your original investment, do so. Play with some one elses money.
3/ Don't get greedy, because trust me,it does not pay.
I do not want to see anyone get burned in the end.It is not Frank that will be doing the burning,but the traders themselves. Stocks are one thing no one has control over. I felt I should say something this morning during the caffiene fix as I feel upward movement is around the corner.
I have already been there and done that thinking the last run would never end. Rod knows what I made and what I came out with........and there was a very large gap. Just be careful and be smart.

Posted by buckwheatbob on :
On to some meaty stuff. I have attached the link for the chart below.
The RSI is presently below 30 and that is good for buying as well as an indicator of a turn around if you base it on history of QBID.
Slow stochastic is begining to close up indicating a upward movement.
Wm%R is also in the over bought range at 90 flat. As a general rule of my own, the last 10% is the buying area of best choice.
I am at 2.4 million myself and adding again today another 250k.

When I first started learning about Q freerealtime was my first finding as far as message boards go.
My own personal opinion is that that board needs to be run from at all costs. It is scary the bs and misinformation that gets posted there. I am not saying that this is true or not true but I wouldnt believe anything I read there under any circumstances. I always assumed when the PRs about false information and prosecution issues where being discussed they meant them.
All that being said I do follow a number of boards and this seems to be the most level headed of the pack and where I spend the most time and trust the most information. Unless of course it is one of the cross posters from a few other places...
By the way, anyone else see the riddle and make anything of it? I have some ideas but am still researching a little before I make any guesses.

I sometimes play there but usually on Ultimatebet.com. I like the table layout better. The problem with any online free game, IMHO, is that the sites enhance the hands, giving novice players a false sense that they are catching really great hands that don't usually happen in real games. I've asked the sites to deal "honest" games so we can practice in real situations, but they insist their shuffles and deals are "more random" than real life, so maybe I am wrong. I do know for sure that 3 fullhouses, 3 flushes and one quad in ten hands does not "usually" happen in real-life situations. This happened in the last freeroll Holdem tournament I played.
I also play the players more than the cards, and I cannot see the players online, so I don't think I am playing my best game online.
But to paraphrase an old saying: "My worst day playing Holdem was still better than my best day at work."

(Yes, thats sarcasm. Just wanted to beat the bashers to the starting line!)
Hell this is much bigger news than Oxygen, SCENE, America West, and most of the others of late in my opinion. Anyone that knows anything about Hollywood knows that its not what but who and that "who" issue has seemed to be Franks biggest roadblock as of late. Maybe this will help chip away at some of that resistance.

I understand. I got into QBID for daytrading but realized quickly that this company, despite its sub-penny pinksheet status, has long-term potential. So I quit hoping for rollercoaster action and started praying for solid steady growth. When the spikes and dips happen (and we'll see more before this is over), I agonize about taking profit and "maybe" missing the next runup. Daytrading a total pig every day is easy compared to waiting patiently for QBID to develop steadily and solidly into a real network. But I think the wait will be worth it.

I agree. I just use the term "basher" for anyone who posts untrue or distorted comments about a stock.
Anyway, still hoping for more good news.

jcradio, do you understand how a holding company works? You should, you're invested in one, QBID. If you source QBID's 15c211 filing with the SEC you'll see that the company trading as QBID is Triangle Multi-Media. QBID has 50BB a/s (unknown 0/s). Q Television Network is a PRIVATE HOLDING, a wholly owned subsidiary, a seperate corporate entity that the public cannot have equity in. Why? First off, Q's 75k shares are wholly owned by the directors of its holding company, QBID (Frank & Rene). Secondly, Q's shares are unissued and have no par value per the WA Secretary of State. OTR transfer confirms that QTN is not their customer and no shares of QTN are transfered by them, only TMM shares and the DTC says QTN has no shares in street. Of course not, the 75k shares remain unissued and privately wholly owned. THEREFORE, QBID shareholders have NO EQUITY IN Q TELEVISION NETWORK. QTN is a private holding and asset of its holding company, TMM (that trades as QBID).
It appears you and others want the public to believe if they buy stock in QBID, TMM, they are buying equity in Q Television Network. That is a LIE. Look at PSTS, Frankie sold it PRIVATELY. Did you get any dividends? NO. Why? Because the directors of TMM were the only sharesholders of PSTS, just like the are with QTN.
Now, you want to evade the question of how much Firestone is being paid by Q in QBID stock for its outsourced services. Why? Is it because you havea hunch QTN will merge with Firestone once all QBID stock is liquidated from the TMM shell to cover Q's expenses charged to QBID by Frankie's old time colleagues?

Management as well as investor relations have recently compiled a list of individuals posting inaccurate and or false information on certain message boards. Management has worked very closely with the owners of these message boards and they are cooperating fully with the investigation. Management will be sending these individuals certified letters insisting them to stop posting these fallacies or criminal action will be taken. No information posted other than from the company or investor relations should be considered true.
I thought that your post was very interesting yet very deceptive, so I sent it over to Richard at Q to follow up on.

Great Read!! =========================Must Read (from Multichannel News-4/25/05):
Coming Out in America New Channels Woo Operators and Audiences With Different Strategies
By Wayne Karrfalt 4/25/2005In this story: HERE! OUT THE DOOR LOGO'S WIDER NET Q'S APPROACH THE AD FACTOR
The movie Adored: Diary of a Male Porn Star may best sum up the challenges that lie ahead for the three fledgling channels aimed at the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community in the United States.
While the Italian film's raciest quality may be its U.S. title, as an offering on the video-on-demand service Here! TV, it has played into the hands of news reports about the controversial nature of Gay TV channels, and it serves as ready ammunition for special-interest groups like the American Family Association as they marshal their forces to protest the channels.
So far Here! has gotten little flak from such groups, its executives say. But MTV Networks' Logo, slated to launch June 30, is preparing for the worst by training its affiliates to explain Logo to concerned callers. It remains to be seen what storms may be brewing -- as well as how many networks the market can support. But the three channels aimed at the U.S., which also include Q Television, have given themselves very unique qualities in an effort to differentiate themselves with the consumers, operators and satellite platforms they need to woo.
HERE! OUT THE DOOR Here! has taken the lead in seeking carriage in the U.S. largely because it has chosen to forgo the traditional linear model in favor of a "platform agnostic" VOD or subscription VOD service. It is a premium service aiming high with bigger budgeted movies, scripted series and specials. Almost 25% of its lineup is devoted to originals.
Here! at a Glance Launch date: September 2003 Owners: Majority owners Steven Jarchow and Paul Colichman Business model: Premium service available via VOD, SVOD, PPV or as a 24/7 linear channel Programming highlights: TV production of Terrence McNally's The Lisbon Traviata; gay-themed soap Paradise Falls; Hollywood-caliber original films, including comedy Too Cool For Christmas, war film Tides of War and thriller Urgency; original gay detective series Third Man Out; original lesbian supernatural thriller Dante's Cove; talk show The Elizabeth Birch Project; over 1,000 acquired gay and lesbian films. Demographic skew: 25-54 Wants to be known for: High-quality, authentic gay programming Doesn't want to be known for: Gay porn Distribution focus: "Platform agnostic" available as VOD, SVOD, PPV or linear 24/7 offering (DirecTV Inc. carries it this way) Distribution to date: Available to 40 million homes, VOD on Time Warner Cable, Adelphia Communications Corp. and Comcast Corp.; SVOD on Cablevision Systems Corp., RCN Corp., Starpower Communications LLC, Cox Communications Corp.; linear or PPV on DirecTV; PPV on Dish Network Top executive: CEO Paul Colichman Contact:245 Park Avenue 24th Floor New York, NY 10167 (212) 372-8863 www.heretv.com
Its founders -- who have headed the film distribution and production company Regent Entertainment for more than a decade -- hatched the idea in 2002 as an outlet for the films in Regent's library, such as Oscar-winner Gods and Monsters, starring Sir Ian McKellen and Brendan Frasier. They quickly dismissed the idea of trying to woo advertisers into supporting gay films and series because they felt it would take away the creative freedom they needed to authentically serve the gay community.
"They wanted me to create programming I was uninterested in," says Here! CEO Paul Colichman about his discussions with the ad community. "They wanted to get gay dollars into their company coffers, but they didn't want to support us."
The decision to run on VOD and SVOD platforms in lieu of linear carriage was also one of expediency. The last thing operators want is another license fee weighing down their video margins, regardless of how underserved the audience is, says Here! president and chief operating officer Andrew Tow, a former executive at the MSO Century Communications Corp.
"The addition of any one new ad-supported channel is not going to move the needle, in terms of securing a new customer or stopping one from churning," says Tow, adding that operators he spoke with tended to ask: "Why should I devote precious bandwidth to something that would erode margins rather than help them?"
Here! has gained carriage faster than expected; new deals with Cox Communications Inc. and Comcast Corp. announced at the National Show have made the service available to 40 million homes, including a linear option available on DirecTV Inc. Here! officials keep take rates close to the vest, but they will say the service sells better in smaller communities outside big cities, where gay entertainment is less available.
Tow and Colichman attribute Here!'s distribution pacts to the quality of its programming, which has involved an investment of $50 million so far in 2005. Because of its ties to Regent, its executives can debut some titles at the same time they debut on home video, and executives say that's a strong selling point to operators.
"We're able to make the deals more favorable to [the operators] without sacrificing revenue in the aggregate," Tow says.
LOGO'S WIDER NET Logo's mission is quite different and so are the challenges it faces -- as is evidenced by the time Viacom Inc. is taking to get the channel off the ground. Viacom began discussing the network three years ago, and has pushed its original launch date from February to June 30.
Logo at a Glance Planned launch date: June 30, 2005 Owner: MTV Networks Programming highlights: Original reality series Cruise and My Fabulous Gay Wedding, scripted series Noah's Arc, documentaries, acquired movies, programming in conjunction with other Viacom Inc. brands such as CBS News and MTV: Music Television, and The Big Gay 100, a countdown show produced with VH1. Business model: Basic ad-supported cable network with licensing fees Demographic skew: All ages Wants to be known for: Its broad reach Doesn't want to be known for: politics, salaciousness Distribution focus: digital basic Distribution to date: Expects to be in 10 million homes upon launch, deals with Adelphia Communications Corp., RCN Corp. and Time Warner Cable, in negotiation with Comcast Corp. and others Top executives: Brian Graden, president of MTV Networks Entertainment and president of Logo; Lisa Sherman, general manager of Logo Contact: www.LOGOonline.com (212) 767-8732.
Some observers contend that Logo will be a lightening rod for criticism, and it will have to be patient for operators and advertisers to climb on board. But they also note that if anyone can launch a gay digital-basic channel, it's Viacom, given the resources of its network holdings.
Nicole Browning, head of affiliate sales and marketing for MTVN, puts a slightly different spin on the situation: "There's a huge receptivity so far, because there's nothing like it in the marketplace. We're about brand-building. We've built fabulous brands by building amazing emotional connections to the audience, and that's the expertise required to make Logo happen."
From a programming standpoint, Logo is casting a wide net. The first year will feature a slew of documentaries showing "real gay people in real life," such as one about the gay rodeo circuit or another about what it's like to be gay and Latino, according to spokesman David Bittler. The idea is to create loyalty among the LGBT community.
Logo is also betting that it can attract a wider audience than the 7% of the population that identifies itself as gay with some of its original fare. Among them is the gay makeover comedy My Fabulous Gay Wedding, from The Kids in the Hall's Scott Thompson, and the scripted series Noah's Arc is in the vein of Sex and the City. Forward-thinking advertisers may also want to be associated with a network that's inclusive of alternative lifestyles, Logo executives say.
"It's a great opportunity for [an advertiser] to show they are progressive and out for the customer," says Todd Evans, president and CEO of the gay media ad rep firm Rivendell Media. "Imagine how big the gay-friendly market is."
Logo's wide appeal and availability is precisely why some in the gay community think the network is a bad idea, according to its rivals. The fear is that the pressure to conform to general-market mores will force it to become "gay lite," airing only safe, Will & Grace-type shows that -- in the opinion of some -- serve single women better than gays and lesbians.
"Operators are still concerned with launching gay and lesbian programming that's easily accessible by others. In many areas, it's just not going to happen," says Cathy Rasenberger, an industry consultant hired to help with affiliate sales and marketing for Q Television. "It needs to be subscription-based so that it can deal with issues of the community."
"I have nothing against Logo, but it's not fair pushing the gay agenda on mainstream TV. There will be backlash all over the place," contends Frank Olsen, CEO and founder of Q. "When parents come home and see their kids watching two boys kissing, Momma's going to flip."
Whether or not Logo will show boys kissing remains to be seen; Bittler would not say. But Browning does note: "We're working in normal [content] standards of basic cable. We're not pushing boundaries for the sake of it."
Q'S APPROACH As their criticism of Logo implies, executives at Palm Springs, Calif.-based Q Television are banking on a different strategy. They believe that Q's independent gay ownership and subscription-fee, ad-supported positioning will make it an attractive alternative.
Q Television at a Glance Launch date: Oct.1, 2004 Owners: Triangle Multi-Media and privately held investors Business model: Mini-pay service at $7.50 per month, 50% share with operator Programming highlights: Signature shows include nightly On Q Live and Q On the Move, shot on location covering gay and lesbian events; new live morning show Gay Day, gay rodeo, theater, coverage of The Gay Games 2005, acquired gay-themed movies. Demographic skew: All ages Wants to be known for: Gay lifestyle channel built by gay people for gay people Doesn't want to be known for: Exploiting the gay community Distribution focus: linear digital pay on cable and satellite Distribution to date: Available to 400,000 RCN Corp. homes Top executive: Frank Olsen, CEO and founder Contact: 303 North Indian Canyon Way Palm Springs, CA.

The channel plans to feature a hefty dose of live community programming, close to 30 hours a week. Q on the Move and the nightly prime time block On Q Live will include coverage of gay sports -- such as The Gay Games -- as well as theater performances and events like the drag-queen procession of ferry boats held every July 4 off the beaches of New York's Fire Island. The network is also planning a two-hour morning-news show debuting in June. Q also recently agreed to lease 30 minutes per day on the 53 million-home Oxygen channel to run Q on the Move.
Q's distribution progress has been slow going: So far it is only available to RCN Corp. customers, which has a subscriber base of about 400,000. But meetings with operators at the National Show has Olsen confident enough to predict that Q will be in 16 million homes by June. And he's willing to wait until the network can get carriage as a linear pay channel.
"Don't stick me out on VOD; I hate that," says Olsen. "We want to be like any other channel, and it's worth the holdout. Otherwise you're just a token to the gay community."
Q has addressed solvency concerns by shoring up its finances with a private-equity fund. The company expects to break even in 2008. It also completed construction on a 48,000-square-foot production studio in Fort Worth, Texas, last month; hired industry veteran Carol Hinnant away from Here! as vice president of affiliate sales and marketing; and is spending $12 million this year on original programming.
The network is willing to split a suggested $7.50 subscription fee with operators. It has eight minutes of advertising per hour, two minutes earmarked for local avails and 6 minutes to national ads. Despite the low distribution, advertisers such as Orbitz, which is also a charter sponsor of Logo, have approached Q to buy air time.
"It's a new community of advertisers to go after, so we won't be cannibalizing existing ad revenue," says Rasenberger.
THE AD FACTOR It's too soon to tell if advertisers and subscribers will support three separate gay offerings. But the services do have some built in advantages: the channels' focus-group research shows pent-up demand by the gay community and the networks have the ability to market extremely efficiently, thanks to the effectiveness of viral marketing campaigns. (Here! says it has already achieved a 90% recognition rate within the gay community).
"I think there's room for more than one gay network, if they're sufficiently differentiated and done correctly," says Chuck Bachrach, media director of California ad agency Rubin Postaer and Associates.
But it's likely that many advertisers will view the networks with some caution.
Many don't buy time on new networks until they get a good look at the programming, regardless of the format. And most look for a critical mass of subscribers before they make commitments. Logo may have an edge, given the advertising sales clout of MTVN, but its mid-year launch could present a challenge.
"Most advertisers' budgets will be allocated by then, so they might have some lean times before Jan. 1 rolls around. I would look at them during the first quarter of 2006 to see what comes in then," says Howard Buford, president and CEO of gay-focused ad agency Prime Access.
Logo is hoping much of the controversy generated by its launch will have blown over by then.
"TV is not a shrine of sacred holy writ, it reflects our society," says Bob Witeck, CEO of gay marketing firm Witeck-Combs Communications. "Advertisers are about one thing -- they want to connect with culture. [When it comes to advertising], we're talking about capitalistic acts between consenting adults."
Lessons From North of the Border America's gay networks hope not to follow in the footsteps of its Northern neighbor. PrideVision, which claims to be the world's first gay network, has been steadily losing money since launching inauspiciously four days after September 11, 2001, with an erotic approach. Its new owners hope to turn things around, with a second service, Out TV, which debuted April 12.
Out offers lifestyle programming and aims for a wider audience. It's executives are currently in talks with both Q Television and Here! about the possibility of sharing future programming.
The lessons to be learned from PrideVision are well worth heeding. After winning a license from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, which gave it must-carry status across the country, PrideVision's first owners (private investors that also operate the sports channel The Score) decided to forgo the right to force distribution. Instead, they launched a premium a la carte service that featured late-night hardcore adult gay programming. Although Canada is much less prudish about such things, the service never caught on with audiences and lost $17 million (Canadian) after two years.
The gay community felt exploited because so little effort was made to program the channel to serve the community's needs, according to current PrideVision and Out TV CEO Bill Craig, particularly after it tried a guilt-based subscription drive claiming: "We are impotent; help PrideVision TV get it up!"
"[The category 1 license] was a gift sitting in their lap, and they dropped it," Craig says of the previous non-gay ownership group.
The new owners, led by gay publisher Pink Triangle Media, hope to gain far more acceptance by restoring the must-carry status of its new offering launched this month. However, two operators Shaw Cable and Bell ExpressVu -- who control close to 70% of Canada's digital subscribers -- refuse to carry Out TV in a package, sending the company to the CRTC to intervene.
Why Gay Networks Are Emerging Gay television networks have been whispered about for years, but for several reasons the timing finally seems right:
The visibility of gay characters on television has been steadily rising, breaking through to the realm of pop culture. Showtime's long-running Queer as Folk and Bravo's Queer Eye for the Straight Guy helped pave the way for gay and lesbian characters, who are now popping up all over the dial. Even Marge's sister Patty (left) came out of the closet to marry in a February 20 episode of Fox's The Simpsons, coming down on the side of marriage equality for gays. The gay and lesbian community is as well-heeled as it is underserved. Gay buying power is projected to reach $610 billion in 2005, according to the latest analysis by gay marketing firm Witeck-Combs Communications, thanks to the predominance of DINKS (dual income no kids households). The advertising community is more focused than ever on reaching the community. Spending in the gay press increased 28.4%, to $207 million in 2004. And over 150 Fortune 500 brands were active in the market, according to the 2004 Gay Press Report, produced by ad agency Prime Access and marketing firm Rivendell Media. The chance to target gays on television -- without being positioned next to an ad for a gay male escort service -- should attract even more advertisers to the segment. Technology such as digital compression and video on demand has made it possible to launch truly niche programming services.
On the Techno Edge Purveyors of adult content, both straight and gay, have long been on the cutting edge of distribution technology, first with VHS in the early 1980s, then streaming video on the Internet in the 1990s. Now entrepreneurs are utilizing the latest server technology to try to help better serve gay audiences.
One of Out TV parent Pink Triangle Media's businesses is Man Line, a gay telephone dating service. Out TV wants to adapt the service as a video-on-demand dating service for digital-cable subscribers throughout Canada. Users will upload video and jpegs to local servers, and the company will charge each time a clip is viewed.
"The gay community is very computer-savvy, so we think this service could be very popular," says PrideVision and Out TV CEO Bill Craig.
Meanwhile, Los Angeles-based Trojan Networks is preparing a premium video service in the U.S. that mixes peer-to-peer sharing with digital video recording. The company is planning the August soft launch of a small VHS tape-sized DVR that needs a broadband connection and a television. Subscribers will be able to order and reserve premium movies, including a variety of gay adult films, which will be compiled peer-to-peer from multiple users' hard drives and stored on the box.
The box must be connected to the Internet at least once a week, but can store 30 to 40 films and be taken on the road and connected to any television. Trojan Networks CEO John Brady sees one of his core customers as upscale gay businessmen who travel a lot and find it inconvenient to access adult titles. The business model calls for a monthly $39 fee, with access to over 200 films a month.
"We believe the adult component will be a strong driver to adoption," says Brady. "The ability to acquire adult programs without dark sunglasses and a dark brown wrapper is worth a lot to some people."

Andrew: I sent Richard information that was posted on this board today regarding the Oxygen rumor. In addition I once again sent him information regarding the crap about the shareholders not owning the "Q".
I also have e-mails out to Oxygen regarding the reporting of a lawsuit between Oxygen and Triangle.
I have had my lawyer here in Cali look for a filing of any lawsuits and he has come up with a blank on this one.
I did receive an e-mail from Richard and he will get back to us asap. I feel that the bashers are getting what they want a lower PPS at any cost.

Good stuff there and makes me feel even better about what is going on behind closed doors.
Rasenburger quoted as well as the comment about Carol is all great stuff.
"hired industry veteran Carol Hinnant away from Here! as vice president of affiliate sales and marketing"
That settles the arguement of her leaving Here as a firing or other negative issue on her part.
Being that this article is quoting folks in all 3 companies I am positive they asked for a copy for review before it was released. Thats pretty standard and if that statement wasnt true it would have been rebuttled or removed.

jcradio, do you understand how a holding company works? You should, you're invested in one, QBID. If you source QBID's 15c211 filing with the SEC you'll see that the company trading as QBID is Triangle Multi-Media. QBID has 50BB a/s (unknown 0/s). Q Television Network is a PRIVATE HOLDING, a wholly owned subsidiary, a seperate corporate entity that the public cannot have equity in. Why? First off, Q's 75k shares are wholly owned by the directors of its holding company, QBID (Frank & Rene). Secondly, Q's shares are unissued and have no par value per the WA Secretary of State. OTR transfer confirms that QTN is not their customer and no shares of QTN are transfered by them, only TMM shares and the DTC says QTN has no shares in street. Of course not, the 75k shares remain unissued and privately wholly owned. THEREFORE, QBID shareholders have NO EQUITY IN Q TELEVISION NETWORK. QTN is a private holding and asset of its holding company, TMM (that trades as QBID).
It appears you and others want the public to believe if they buy stock in QBID, TMM, they are buying equity in Q Television Network. That is a LIE. Look at PSTS, Frankie sold it PRIVATELY. Did you get any dividends? NO. Why? Because the directors of TMM were the only sharesholders of PSTS, just like the are with QTN.
Now, you want to evade the question of how much Firestone is being paid by Q in QBID stock for its outsourced services. Why? Is it because you havea hunch QTN will merge with Firestone once all QBID stock is liquidated from the TMM shell to cover Q's expenses charged to QBID by Frankie's old time colleagues?

quote:Richard has responded to each e-mail that I have sent him, but then again I do not ask him questions that he does not have the information to answer.
It's not like I'm asking for the world. I just want an estimated outstanding shares. Yes, I know and have read the research estimating outstanding unrestricted shares at around 3 billion, but the problem is that sometimes they announce a number and sometimes they don't. I just want the confusion to be cleared so I know *how much* I will be adding.
I already have quite a bit in this stock. I know that now is a good time to accumulate, but I don't want to accumulate till I have an estimate (within maybe 2 billion) of the outstanding shares. Is that really too much to ask of QBID?
quote:I thought that your post was very interesting yet very deceptive, so I sent it over to Richard at Q to follow up on.
Oh for christ's sake. He's not posting rumors, he's linking to PRs and posts from IHUB. If posting links to PRs that don't have follow-ups is worth suing posters over, then I'd seriously reconsider my investment. I'd be ashamed to invest in a company that litigates every time someone sneezes.

It still is a difficult question for Richard. You can call him yourself and see what he says but I don't think he'll tell you anything more than you already know. Richard isn't the one doing the share audit. He very well could give you an estimate but I have a feeling he'll just say, "ya know I really can't say.

I will not lighten up on Ghosty till he starts playing like he is here for the good of the fellow posters, as opposed to trying to get them to sell.
that is all he is doing.
he is not even a good basher, they stop bashing once the RSI is this oversold. they are loaded up by now and ready for the ride in the next couple of days.
we have been here many times before and i see this as no different then any other dip down to these levels.

Yes, I want to bash and make everyone on Allstocks sell so I can buy more! Not like there's 15 billion shares to choose from. Don't worry about me, worry about your investment.

Good morning and good luck everyone. I plan on buying a few more shares today. The puzzle is taking shape with 1 more pr yesterday.
I hope Q is working hard behind the scenes for us. We need to find out about Pridevision, getting onto an exchange,the road show, Oxygen, and most of all a CARRIER!(I know you all already know we need this...LOL)
There is a lot on our plate but I still have faith in Frank and company.
Go Q!!

Your intitled to your own opinion. I do appreciate bad news brought to the board if is legitimate news that has links to back it up.
I have brought bad news in here as well and brought the links to back it up. that is DD.
All he is doing is reposting from other forums (which several individuals who could be called "pumpers" have done as well) and/or posting links to PRs that don't appear to have followups.
You and the others have done a good job explaining why he is wrong, but I see nothing wrong with what he's doing. If anything, he's helping prevent daytraders from getting involved and making sure that those that do get in are in it for a long long run.
The last thing we need is people who buy at .0021 and sell at .0023, and yet many of you in here are claiming to be doing exactly that. That's far more disappointing to me than what you guys would call "bashing" by ghosty.
I don't know though, he's gotta make sure he doesn't cross a certain line. So far he hasn't, but someone *did* post that fake PDF with fake lawsuits in it.
Posted by Ligge on :
I think where ghosty was wrong was that he posted "Interesting read" in reference to the ickity post he copied here when he knew full well that ickity is not looked at as a credible poster where he posted that from and where ickity's "home" board is located.
I may post stuff from other places too, but I always put some sort of disclaimer if it is a repost of questionable nature. Such as Georgekings riddles.. I said right away that it was always debated if he was a fraud or prophet.
Saying "Interesting read" gives the impression it is something that deserves some recognition and attention. It wasnt and he knew it. Its the wrong impression to give when there are always new readers of the board that dont know the background of the posters or posts.
The fake pdf repost was actually apologized for... did ghosty apologize for reposting information from someone that doesnt seem to be trusted by any of the seasoned posters? No.
Posted by g-invest on :
Well, I understand that too, but I'd argue that "trusted" posters never seem to be individuals that bring to light certain information that call a pps as overvalued. In fact, it would appear that if someone is reasonable about their interest in a company, then they get flamed for stating such.
I *would* say that QBID as it stands is undervalued, but I think it's more the fault of MMs than any proclaimed "bashing" on forums. The way it looks, if the PPS doesn't change positively, then by next week I may be one of the QBID million plus holders like many of the others in this thread. Right now I'm just not quite there.

G-invest. I admire that you feel that Ghosty is a good guy but i must remind you that you are new here according to your info at the botom of your posts. we have been here for a lot longer and have had to deal with Ghosty in the past. and we have also watched his goings on at IHUB.
Anyone that knows me in here knows that i do not go after anyone who is a concerned investor.
In fact i just thank someone yesterday for pointing out the lawsuit rumour yesterday. and encouraged him to bring anythign here bad or good, as long as he gives us a link so that we can do our thing with the info.
I too have concerns about the fact that the pps is where it is. But we have been here several times before so im not worried about it.
In fact I have placed another order this morning for another 500,000 shares.
Thanks you for trying to bring some balance to the board, but if you are trying to defend Ghosty you really dont know him and will kick yourself later for doing so.
JMHO

AB lists Qbid a "Buy-If" today.... it has been pushed down and oversold enough that it will turn around soon. I loaded up yesterday and am ready for it to go!
My thoughts are that the Daytraders have all jumped ship and will jump right back on when it starts an uptrend. This will send it positive once again. We do need however some positive news to prevent it from sliding into the deep abyss: 1) Gay Day Hosts 2) Carriers 3) Pride/OutTv deal 4) *Confirmation of Oxygen viewing 5) Share Structure 6) Move to other board
Any one of these will give this a good pop in PPS. The Oxygen confirmation is the one that I want most, becuase it will only confirm that Qbid is "REAL" and give the bashers one less thing to discuss.
Yesterdays PR about the "talent agent" becoming a consultant to Q is (IMO and like others have mentioned), a payback to the agent to get his top talent for the Gay Day program. Think of this.... A morning talk show needs guests to come onto the show... what else would they talk about, 1 hour of weather??????? This agent has the access to gay personalities to make the show interesting. This PR is alot bigger than many have made it out to be!!!!!

Good News... The stochs are looking to turn back positive. The Wilder's DMI is positive (note the last couple runs the black line was running positive for a week or so before the run).. the real indicator there is the Green crossing the red line. Williams %R is oversold RSI is 32 = oversold Good support at 20/21 (the last run up started from 17, but I believe that the MM's tried one last big shake before they ran it up. There were not many buys below 19)
Not so Good News.... The MACD is not yet ready to cross
So, absent any big news, I see this trading sideways for the next few (2-5) days to allow the MACD to correct and then the move upward! I suppose this gives everyone a couple more days to collect/gather/hoard many more shares at this price.

OR . . . maybe Frank is just proud and excited about this new step in QBID's progress and wants to tell us more than once? When I won a 3rd grade spelling bee, I called Grandma five times and she was thrilled to hear my story every time. Maybe we all should react like Grandma and be happy . . . no matter how many times we hear the story. (This proves it is a slow news day. Three posts in a row about a PR being released more than once. WOW!)

Insome cases those are signals going between the MM's. Here is a partial list of signals that have been know for a while.These are coutesy of an ex-trader
Updated MM Signals................................
a-Signals between MM’s... 100 > I need shares 200 > I need shares badly but don’t take it down to get them 300 > Take the price down to get shares.... 400 > Trade it sideways based on Supply and Demand 500 > Gap one-way or the other, usually to the direction of the 500 trade. Sometimes -if in the middle -keep the price right where it is. 1000 > Don't let it run 2100 > Let it run 2500 > What ever

I suggest you re-read the awkward phrasing AFTER you pull both Q Television Network, Inc. & Triangle Multi-Media's corporate filings from the Washington Secretary of State. I doled out the $5 to get a copy of Q's last filing, it annual report. You'll notice abortionist Dr. Sherman, another long-time business associate of Frank's was added to the Q Board of Directors;

----------
QTN's UBI # is: 602 391 767
Now we can look at QBID's, TMM's corporate filings;
----------
TRIANGLE MULTIMEDIA LIMITED
UNIFIED BUSINESS ID #: 601 047 757
Category Regular Corporation Profit/Nonprofit Profit Active/Inactive Active State of Incorporation WA Date of Incorporation 05/08/1951 License Expiration Date 05/31/2005
Registered Agent Information Agent Name FRANK W OLSON Address 28609 14TH AVE SW City FEDERAL WAY State WA ZIP 98003
-----------------
Triangle Multi-Media is QBID, not QTN, per the form 211 filing with the SEC. Note that Triangle Multi-Media's UBI # with the Secretary of State is: 601 047 757.
So, we know two things.
1) Triangle Multi-Media (QBID) and Q Television Network are seperate corporate entities. They are TWO DIFFERENT COMPANIES. And,
2)we know from the 15c211 filing that ONLY TMM trades as QBID. Here is the company trading as QBID per the 15c211;
QBID - SEC 15c-211 - Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Triangle Multi-Media Limited, Inc. A Washington Corporation July 20, 2000
Information Provided Pursuant to Rule 15c2-11 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as Amended
CORPORATE INFORMATION REGARDING Triangle Multi-Media Limited, Inc. A Washington Corporation July 20, 2000
------------------------
Furtherore, Frank disclosed that Q Television Network is a wholly owned subsidiary of Triangle Multi-Media. Those who don't understand that QBID/TMM is a holding company get scammed at this point. They do not understand why if TMM wholly owns QTN, and they own common shares in QBID/TMM, why they do not own equity in QTN too. First, understand a common share of stock is a limited liability. It is voting stock and entitles you only to dividends on TMM's earnings.
Triangle/QBID has no earnings. It is a holding company. It's assets are its holdings. Its holdings are its wholly owned subsidiaries. How does Triangle/QBID "wholly own" Q Television Network and why do common shareholders of the holding co., QBID, have no equity in the holdings/subsidiaries?
Because the shareholders of the subsidiaries, like QTN, are the directors of the holding company. So QBID's directors wholly own all of QTN's 75k shares and are solely entitled to all dividends on QTN's 75k shares.
One need only look at PSTS to see how it works. PSTS was QBID's wholly owned studios subsidiary. Frankie sold it privately for $1.2MM.QBID common shareholders got nothing. PSTS, like QTN, was a QBID PRIVATE HOLDING.
About Q Television Network:
A wholly-owned subsidiary of Triangle Multi Media, Q Television Network was organized to create and develop a network devoted to providing television programming for the gay and lesbian community. While the company expects much of its subscriber base to be comprised of members of the gay and lesbian population, management also believes that quality programming about the gay and lesbian experience, designed to entertain, educate and inform, will attract many other segments of the viewing public. The company's programming will be available on a subscription basis to those desiring its programming. The network will broadcast 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Providing distribution via satellite ensures availability of the network across the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.
You might also call OTR, QBID's Transfer Agent. OTR will confirm for you that they only transfer TMM/QBID stock. Q Television is not a customer of theirs. DTC will confirm Q Television has no account there, so there are no QTN shares in street to transfer to name anyway. This jives with QTN being a private holding. QTN's 75k shares remain unissued with no par value and privately wholly owned by the directors of its holding company, QBID.
Now lets look at the cut & paste you posted;
"Investor Relations - PinkSheets: QBID"
Rich is the IR person for Q Television Network, yet the shares he is pimping are Triangle Multi-Media shares. QTN's 75k shares are privately wholly owned and are unissued. The WA Secretary of State can confirm that for you. So, we have a IR person, Rich, pimping the shares of a company he does not work for, TMM.
"Thank you for your interest in Q Television stock (being a subsidiary of Triangle Multi-Media Limited, Inc.)
This is the BAIT & SWITCH - it discloses that Q is a subsidiary of TMM, not ACTUALLY TMM/QBID...
We now have an investor relations firm in charge of handling all investor inquiries
WHO is "we"? QTN? QBID? What company are you buying shares in? Rich works IR for a PRIVATE CO., QTN, but is touting TMM shares?
its off thier website if what you say would even be possibly true. both frank and renee would be so legaly up the river it would be ugly

Just some interesting info on the people who like to continuously post dirt about "Q". All avenues require to be explored including this one:
The Basher's Handbook Reprinted here as a service to those who doubt this actually exists, or is simply an unfounded urban legend.
Is the "Bashing" of a stock an essential part of the online investment landscape?
Our Constitution guarantees us free speech and we have always valued the lessons gleaned from dissent. When does dissent cross over that imaginary line and become "Bashing"? To often we find well grounded dissent capriciously labeled as "Bashing" by over zealous investors bent on protecting a stocks reputation at any cost. The "Bashing" that is addressed on this site is quite different from dissent. The Anatomy of a Basher strives to look at the calculated erosion of confidence in a given stock. Erosion by means that are, in every sense, void of truth, hinged on deception and innuendo, and motivated by greed at the expense of others. This compendium is offered to aid in identifying the telltale signs of "Bashing", and hopefully provide a counter balance to this heretofore unchecked manipulation of investors fears for personal gain.
IS IT EASIER TO SCARE PEOPLE INTO SELLING THAN IT IS TO SCARE PEOPLE INTO BUYING A STOCK? I have asked some knowledgeable investors this question and the answer is always: "YES, OF COURSE YES!"
Consider the elderly that are investing for retirement, they find their way to the message boards for validation only to see false posts about "SEC Violations" and "Class action suits"... or the head of a "typical growing family", with children to put through college, who is monitoring a message board only to read posts by a "pack of 15 to 20 Bashers" (probably 5 or 6 under various alias's) posting continuous disinformation... what do you think these new investors will do? It's safer to not buy or even sell the stock, put the money back in the bank than to deal with all this whirl wind of "unsupported" negative chaff.
The Internet has lured a whole new class of investor into the market. A new investor is just that - New! This new investor, while learning the basics, is particularly vulnerable to the tactics of professional Bashers. New investors tend to lurk in the background of message boards, content to form independent opinions based on what they read with their own eyes. Very often, honest, intelligent and cautious people can easily be overcome by a well orchestrated propaganda effort.
You must always remember that their is a lot of money to be made in just the motion of a stock UP or DOWN it doesn't matter! And Bashers have money at risk just as you do. But they have the edge of fear, lies, and falsehoods to post while preying on the un-initiated. The average investor dose not have the edge of organized deception.
Recent revelations have indicated that even Market Makers (those charged with keeping the playing field level) have been involved in stock manipulation by Bashing on a stock message board. HAVE NO DOUBT THAT THIS IS A REAL THREAT!
Lesson 1: Remember, BASHERS NEVER Bash A BAD STOCK. Check the boards for stocks with no potential. They never have any Bashers. Bashers only go after stocks that are moving up or have excellent potential to do so. Bashers work to bring the price down to either increase their position at the expense of others or help a Short make their bones.
Lesson 2: BASHERS ALWAYS BRING UP OLD NEWS THAT YOU HAVE HEARD MANY TIMES. New startup companies always have a few bits of bad news. The Basher will post this over and over again. Unsophisticated Bashers will try to freshen up old news with a new date or by-line in an attempt to fool you.
Lesson 3: BASHERS POST MANY TIMES A DAY. They try to wear you out. They comment on everything, every other post, and can answer every question. THEY KNOW IT ALL! There is no positive comment they won't Bash. They try to control the board. True longs may have to confront the Bashers or they will appear to the newbies as being the people with all the information. This is best accomplished by posting positive, well researched data on the company, repetitively, while trying hard not to engage the Bashers in direct repartee. REMEMBER - LONGS... RESIST USING THE BASHERS ALIAS!
Lesson 4: BASHERS WILL LIE TO YOUR FACE. Never trust a Basher. The truth on startup companies is that they make mistakes. What new company hasn't? The Basher will compare your issue to a another companies, financials - deals - management, etc., trying to lure you into making an Apples to Oranges comparison. Remember each company is unique and while it is prudent to seek out established indicators, do so with care and don't take someone else's word for it. Strive to come up with at least a "six-pack" of indicators so your vision of the state of a company is not tied to a single barometer. Not doing so is tantamount to going to a Race Track and betting on the "Pretty Brown Horsey". BASHERS WANT TO WHISPER IN YOUR EAR - PLANT A SEED OF DOUBT, AND HOPE THAT YOU ARE NOT SAVVY ENOUGH TO RESEARCH THE TRUTH ON YOUR OWN. This is how they achieve their greatest success.
DOUBT + FEAR + LAZINESS = BAIL OUT!
This is your investment... work for it, protect it and don't panic on the words of very shadowy figure that "has your best interest in their heart". Consider that one factor: Someone you have never met, is not a member of your family, is now, out of the goodness of their hearts - GIVING YOU FREE ADVICE (that you didn't ask for). It's a no brainer. They have motives $$$$$$$$$$$$.
Lesson 5: Bashers know YOU CAN'T VERIFY THEIR STATEMENTS. That's why they make the vague statements they do. They rely on you being to lazy to research their droppings other than to scan the board for others opinions. This is particularly dangerous when you consider that Bashers work in packs and often validate and back up each others nonsense with what appears to be "innocuous and unsolicited" verification by comrade Bashers. Let's face it, we are all conditioned to "believe" everything we see in writing. If others by virtue of their "posts" also confirm this belief, then we are subconsciously doomed to swallow the hook, line and sinker... Basher - 1 Honest Investor - 0
Lesson 6: The Bashers PLAY ON YOUR LACK OF KNOWLEDGE. They can lie about information and you won't know the difference (unless you have done your own DD on the company and know the truth and facts).
Lesson 7: Bashers play on your lack of patience. You have held a stock for a while. You knew it will be a big stock someday, but the BASHER CAN GET TO YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE TIRED OF WAITING FOR YOUR GAIN. That's when the Basher is best. You are tired. You have forgotten the goal for the stock was to hold it for one year. The Basher is bothersome, so you dump it on a bad day. Some others also dump. Then you get mad for your loss and return to let everyone know how mad you are. Then you turn into a semi-Basher as well. THE BASHER HAS WON, AND GAINED A NEW ALLY - YOU!
Lesson 8: BRING THE PRICE DOWN. That is the Basher's job. The truth is not important. Lies are the norm. Post continuously on the board every day. They are trying to scare the newbies that are just investigating a stock. They are trying to wear down the faithful longs on the board and gain free reign and control.
A BASHER HANDBOOK: Do not underestimate a Bashers influence on a stock. The Pro's are good at what they do and what they do is profit from your losses. Below is their "hand-book". Learn from it or you will be donating your hard earned money to them!
2. Use 10% fact. 90% suggestion. The facts will lend credibility to your suggestions.
3. Let others help you learn about the stock. Build rapport and a support base before initiating your Bashing routine.
4. Enter w/ humor and reply to all who reply to you.
5. Use multiple ISP's, handles and aliases.
6. Use two (2) or more aliases to simulate a discussion.
7. Do not start with an all out slam of the stock. Build softly.
8. Identify your foes (Longs) and the boards "guru" Use them to your advantage. Lead them do not follow their lead.
9. Only Bash until the tide/momentum turns. Let doubt carry it the rest of the way.
10. Give the appearance of being open minded.
11. Be bold in your statements. People follow strength.
12. Write headlines in caps with catchy statements.
13. Pour it on as your position gains momentum. Not your personality.
14. Don't worry about being labeled a "Basher". Newbies won't know your history.
15. When identified put up a brief fight, then back off. Return in an hour unless your foe is a weak in reasoning powers.
16. Your goal is to limit the momentum of the run. Not to tank the company or create a plunge in the stock; be subtle and consistent.
17. Kill the dreams of profits, not the company or the stock.
18. Use questions to create critical thinking. Statements to reinforce facts.
19. DO NOT LIE, NAME CALL or USE PROFANITY.
20. Encourage people to call the company. 99% won't. They'll take your word for claims made. If they do call you can always find something that is inaccurate in how they report their findings.
21. Discourage people from believing Press Releases. Encourage them to call the company. They won't out of laziness.
22. If the companies history/PR's are negative constantly point to that. Compile a list of this data prior to beginning your efforts.
23. If the price rises blame it on the hype or the PR, temporary mass reaction, the market, etc. Anything but the stock itself.
24. If other posters share your concerns, play on that and share theirs too.
25. Always cite low volume, even when it's not.
26. Three or four aliases can dominate a board and wear down the longs.
27. Bait the Longs into personal debates putting their focus/efforts on you and not the stock or facts. Divert their attention from facts.
28. Promote other stocks that would-be investors can turn to instead of the one your Bashing.
30. Do not fall for challenges on the "values" of what you are doing, it's a game and you are playing it with your own rules.
Grade 'A' Basher: If you post lots of old news, respond to all positive posts with a negative side. Never respond to being called a Basher, never post on another board with same alias. Can spend up to 80 hours a week Bashing a stock.
Grade 'B' Basher: Very good way with words, always claims to be your "friend" taking the positive poster into confidence, never posts on another board, spends about 60 hours a week.
Grade 'C' Basher: Spends less time than the others but is somewhat effective and gets a C grade due to getting excited when Bashers rules say not to get excited, spends about 40 hours a week.
Grade 'D' Basher: Needs to learn the basics about being convincing when making a negative statement. Spends a good amount of time working the stock, maybe 20 hours a week.
Grade 'F' Basher: A complete idiot, most readers are not convinced he knows anything about stocks in general. The type that says a stock "sucks", but gives no rationale, shows up every so often but no regular schedule.
LEARN ABOUT HOW BASHERS WORK: For instance: did you know that some Bashers are paid?
Golden Rule:
IGNORE THEM ...learn how professional Bashers are paid: When you REPLY to Bashers you give them an opportunity to earn appox. 5-7 dollars. The service agreement they enter into with their employer states their messages will be monitored for content, profanity, lies, etc. but Overseers and the like don't have the time to check all their Bashers messages. Only occasional spot checks are done. Those who manage the Basher will generally read the headlines to see if a Basher is replying to other posters by name. That tells them the Basher isn't just "posting blindly" or repeating the same message over and over since they won't pay for those.(True to form a Basher will put the bite on anyone, even their unscrupulous employer). A Basher will attempt to milk three to five replies per post at one to two dollars each. This way the Basher spreads negative influence to as many stockholders as possible. A Basher will create this discussion thread because it takes less time reading more messages than is necessary. This ultimately allows the Basher more time to post and make money. In general, NEVER ENGAGE A BASHER. Make them read all the posts and think up ways to enter the discussion. NEVER ENGAGE A BASHER; if you do so then YOU BECOME THE BASHER,S AID! If you feel compelled to challenge a Basher do so without mentioning his/her true alias in your response. This will make it hard for the Basher to use your post as a revenue stream. Read the news, do your own homework and make your own decisions. Get real time quotes and follow the stock for a couple of weeks. Due Diligence is key here. Know that there will be a time when the stock runs up which will be followed followed by the Bashers and those that missed the boat. The Bashers will trash the stock by saying such things as "it's a Pump and Dump" and "the company is lying" and deceiving. There goal is to scare off newbies and potential new investors by "shaking" you out of your shares. Take the time to confirm your DD ,trust your own judgement and believe in yourself, pick your point of return or loss and live with it. Don't listen to hype or Bashers trust your own judgement. Live by the rules you have created .
1. Check the "Born on Date" Bashers create identities on a regular basis. Rarely do you find a Basher with older "Created On" date. So click on the Identity icon for more details.
2. Take the time to look at the Basher's history of Posts. Go to other boards and see if their is a pattern to the theme of the posts. Bashers rarely waste time trying to blend in with "positive" posts, unless they are cultivating a new uninformed assistant.
3. When did the Basher show up. Bashers rarely show up when activity is in at a Lull. They show up when activity up/down..
4. Bashers never answer direct questions except with another question.
5. Bashers do work in teams (sometimes themselves as a team). So be suspicious of someone showing up and automatically having a Shadow to converse with who supports their argument.
6. Bashers always select "an argument" that can never be resolved by research.
Bashers love to work in packs. It provides the quintessential cover to achieve supposedly "independent" validation of an argument. It is neither independent nor validating.
Pack Structure: Basher Packs can be comprised of any number of Bashers. They can be purposely formed within an organization or they can be "ad hoc" formed during a conclave on a particular board. In fact a pack mentality can be achieved by an ambitious "party of one" with a few select aliases.
Once a pack is formed, a leader emerges. This leader is usually acknowledged by other Bashers because of 1. Knowledge of the stock. or 2. Recognition by current board Longs (high visibility). Once established the Leader will usually work the Pack members up in to a posting frenzy. Constantly changing themes and even occasionally biting the ear of another pack member (this earns instant credibility), and it doesn't offend the bitten Basher because he/she knows it is all part of the effect. Quite sophisticated.
Packs will disband and slink away without notice. Usually this is the call of the Pack Leader who is adept at recognizing overplay. More often than not, Pack members must move on because they have other Bashing commitments to fulfill. They will return to the site of a good hunt over and over again, until hamstringing is achieved.
What calls a pack together. The Cry of the Leader. Certain Bashers love to work together. They know each others bite, how to feign in and out, it is a well choreographed Bash when pack members have worked together before. They constantly check their "Sites Du Jour" for signs of Pack activity. Occasionally they will throw out a "Nibbler" Bash to see if the pack responds or if not they can work the site themselves. It's all about effectiveness, time and earning money.
< BEWARE OF THE PACK >

Own a bunch of shares. Not bashing this stock, posted a post that shows the relationship (if any) between QTN/QBID. Every investor who owns a share in this company needs to know this.
Posted by Ligge on :
Well I hate to do this since he seems hellbent on reposting ickitys garbage... but I have to defend Ghosty here.
The database update date Database last updated on 16-Sep-2004 means nothing. It is not out of date and it is not old information. It is completely accurate and current.
However, that is irrelevant to any of the discussions. All that date means is that was the last time that the owner, administrative contact, or technical contact submitted any changes to or information was verified by Network Solutions (or the registering company) in regards to that domain name.
For instance: aol dot com Updated Date: 24-nov-2004 cnn dot com Database last updated on 09-Jul-2004 allstocks dot com Last Updated on: 08-Dec-04 one of my personal domains Database last updated on 28-Jan-2005 (I actually moved physical addresses in Nov and it wasnt until Jan that I got around to updating it, before that the date was a 2002 date)
Of course it doesnt give creedence to any of the rest of the post and is completely irrelevant information in that post that was likely added to make it look like more "important" information was being provided when in reality it was just filler garbage in the post.

Ignore is only for the purpose of blocking PMs unfortunaterly, as I found out earlier. I dont think you can ignore someones posts entirely. Posted by FatherOfTwo on :

I suggest you re-read the awkward phrasing AFTER you pull both Q Television Network, Inc. & Triangle Multi-Media's corporate filings from the Washington Secretary of State. I doled out the $5 to get a copy of Q's last filing, it annual report.

Hopefully he will believe you instead of trying to push the impression that what I said was "partial incomplete information" in regards to the WHOIS lookup.
And just to clear things up, I didn't write that post. I said it was a very good post since it is true.
People keep exclaiming: "THIS IS THEE BIGGEST LOAD OF CRAP I HAVE EVER READ!!! I don't say much about Q, but post like this are uncalled for.. It has no fact to it at all!!! How sick are you guys?" yet provide no reason as to why it has no fact at all. What part is fake? I'd like to know, too, so I can decide whether ickity should be trusted or not.

Domain servers in listed order:

if memory serves me this information should be accurate accept for the updated portion which in all reality doesent need to be updated unless the registrant has changed locations, changed owners, or numbers you know the obvious information. Furthermore if they DO happen to have a change they need to make alot of times it takes quite a long time to replicate to the Domain name servers which your talking about 1000's of servers across the world.
Trust me i understand a little bit about this since i work on the 2nd largest network in the world, actually its the first largest network spanning over 215 countries but we cant be that dang ol internet that spans more areas then we can get too.
In any case why are you bringing this insignificant information up to be honest domain name information updates are petty. The only reason you would want to keep it up to day is if you were an ISO 9001 company and that would be it. So i guess my question about the domain is what affect does this have on anything or anyone EVEN when the lookup says "We do not guarantee the accuracy of this data".
again your in my world now grandma!
HAVE A NICE DAY!!!!!!!!!!!

I suggest you re-read the awkward phrasing AFTER you pull both Q Television Network, Inc. & Triangle Multi-Media's corporate filings from the Washington Secretary of State. I doled out the $5 to get a copy of Q's last filing, it annual report.
No idea what you are trying to say, perhaps Ligge can explain your post to me... I don't think you understand domain registration/updates based on your post.

why do you speculate this doc??? a little birdy flew by Posted by clbgroove on :
Well chit...in ghostlys case it would appear that since cnn comm has not been updated since '04' I guess I will go and steal it from them since they dropped the ball...AND.. since General Motors owns GMAC mortgage as the parent company, that GMAC Mortgage doesn't exist!!!!! I guess now I dont have to pay them my mortgage...YEE HAAAA...Now i can buy a few Mill more of Qbid!!!!!

Let me clear up any confusion that ghosty or others may be causing some of you. When you invest in QBID, you are investing in its subsidiaries as well. You are buying shares of Triangle Multi-Media, which owns Q Television. To put it in layman's terms, the success of the Q Television Network will very much affect the value of QBID stock. This is the absolute truth. Anything else you may have previously read is merely heresay and in no way should it be considered as factual. If there are any skeptical investors reading this that would like further evidence of substantiation, feel free to PM me and I will kindly enlighten you.

Ghosty, one of your previous posts (I think the response to me and the domain registration issue) asks the question of ickity and "what part is false?"
Well lets clean this up shall we?
PTDs post covers the part ickity is false. Ickity is trying to claim that if Qtv does well it has nothing to do with TMM and the QBID stock because it is a wholly owned subsidiary. They are wrong.
Many companies are seperate entities under a larger umbrella and when the children do well the parent prospers. I can bore you to death with examples I am sure but we can just stick with the tried and true analogy I use to death already...
AOL bought: Compuserve Netscape Spinner GNN Moviephone Mapquest Time Warner, which owns: WB DC Comics Cartoon Network Time etc
Some are now internal pieces of AOL (Spinner became Netscape Radio, which is also now AOL Radio) others did not. Go look at Mapquest.coms about page... first paragraph, last lines:
In 1999, the company changed its name to MapQuest.com, Inc. and completed an IPO. In 2000, America Online, Inc. acquired MapQuest.com, Inc.
I can assure you, if Mapquest prospers so does AOL and AOL stockholders.
So the bottom line is that ickity is passing TRUE information wrapped inside FALSE statements and assumptions.
Brings back a movie line (I think) I heard once somewhere "the best way to tell a lie is to wrap it in the truth" and thats what is being done.

oh boy, here we go again, are we gonna go over and over about this E#$#$#%$&& ghosty boy all pages long? all we had to do is not reply to his posts - then he will go back to RB or IH. that what we did to the old-time capitalist. remember guys, this $%$#$@ ghosty gets paid by the number of responds to him. you have given him a nice pay today.
Posted by Ligge on :
I am not sure I believe that tqn.
Ghostys mistake, in my opinion, is he is reading the posts of other people that are lies, misinformation, or just overall bad posts and he is reposting them and then defending them.
His posts of a "bashing" nature are most typically not his but just copy and pastes.
My concern and my reason for responding is every week we have new people join the board and this thread in the form of posters and I guarrantee lurkers.
I believe, maybe wrongly, in some cases that it is better to dissect and point out where the falsehood is rather than claim it foul and go on.
I know when I first started reading boards on qbid I was faced with a ton of information that was good and bad and it took me months to figure out who to listen to and who to just skip over. I lurked for months before I registered and started posting due to this fact and I would rather take my experiences and help with it rather than just let everyone fend for themselves.
I am not going to bother with arguing all of them by any means but this issue got really confused and convaluted so it went on for pages. I am hoping I can clean it up a little bit for those that get lost in the firefight.
Good night all. I have to go train some folks and go home after that.

Own a bunch of shares. Not bashing this stock, posted a post that shows the relationship (if any) between QTN/QBID. Every investor who owns a share in this company needs to know this.
gHoStY I am not trying to argue with you, criticize you, or insult you. But I really do not understand why you "own a bunch" of QBID shares since it appears you distrust and dislike the company. Most comments you post suggest that all of us are being defrauded in some way by QBID management and that someday we will wake up broke.
I can think of only three reasons why anyone would be so negative about any company, whether they own shares or not.
1. To lower the PPS to get cheap shares for yourself or your employer (I don't like this, but I accept the practice because I know it happens). 2. To protect others from losing their money (I don't think most people want or need such protection. I certainly don't.). 3. To get revenge against the company for losing money on its stock in the past (which is a rather childish and nonproductive reaction to losing money in the market).
Do you fall into any of these categories? If not, please help me understand why you feel as you do about QBID. I try very hard to accept all opinions posted here, but you have me baffled.

I never said I dislike the company. I own shares of it since I believe that it has tremendous potential and should be very successful if everything goes to plan. What I am upset about is the lack of follow through and things that did not happen, or mistakes. We placed an AD in USA Today that had a misprint, along with another misprin in another magainze I forgot the name of. Then Oxygen, Liz Taylor, superbowl, Presidential innaguration, etc. This stock should be a *lot* higher than .0021 right now, especially if everything Frank is saying in these PR's are true. For example, the price during the last run reached a high of .009 on 12/01/2004. Now, it is .0021 on 04/28/2005. That's a 76.7% decline. Now factor in that there's been *over* 30 PR's since December. We need financials, subscription amounts, and real carriers. With no financials, how is anyone going to take the company seriously? Even if they post them and show a loss, it will still make investors have more confidence in them for being honest. Same thing with subscription numbers. Frank said we will be available to 16,000,000 homes by June - let's see if that happens. If we can get the carriers and move onto a better exchange (which I hope Frank can do, even though Renee said they can't pass an audit), then more investors will be aware of QBID since most do not even touch penny stocks. Then things will start to happen and everyone can throw their Vegas party they've been talking about since April '04.

gHoStY Thank you. You've explained yourself very well.
And I don't disagree with the essense of your comments. You've pointed out some of QBID management's errors and failures. The difference between us is that I don't think these errors / failures are as serious as you do. I wish they had not happened, of course, but I think many of QBID's accomplishments offset these lapses in QBID's business plan.
In summary, it appears we have the same destination ... we both want QBID to succeed so we can bank some profits and move on to something else. But we probably won't always agree on how to get there.

This doesn't tell you much, but from the docket info...here are some generic DD points that list the nature of the suit.
Nature of Suit: 840 Cause: 28:1331 Fed. Question: Trademark
IMHO, Oxygen is upset that Q used their name in a PR. Q had contracted through Zephyr Media (Oct PR??) to do the infomercials.... yet Q releases a PR indicating that they had inked a deal with Oxygen.. where as in reality, Oxygen had a deal with the brokers and the brokers find the clients.... I believe it is all a matter of wording of the PR!
PALM SPRINGS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 5, 2005--Q Television Network (Pink Sheets: QBID - News) announced today that they have inked an agreement with Oxygen to publicize the network to national audiences.

The stock rose to .028 from high volume, pumps, and "thoughts" about them becoming a real network. Not even when signing with a carrier (RCN) did the stock get near that high, in fact it dropped.
So what is it that you think will make this stock go up again?
It's a pink, and soon Frank will feel the effects of what he has done with all the lies.

What he posted was VERBATIM from any generic WHOIS query. The "database" thing is entirely internal, it's not his data. He is absolutely correct, there is no denying that the individual in question is listed as the contact for that domain.
Now, the question is, is QBID going to change it. If they do, then that is VERY suspicious because it means they have something to hide. Keep that in mind. Also, if they change any of the contact information, the "database last updated" portion will say whatever date they make the change.

For those who remember, BT (a.k.a. BigT and BigTips) used to pump this stock when he owned shares. Now that he doesn't own shares anymore he is bashing the stock hoping for people to sell, therefore wanting to buy back in at a lower price. Obviously he sees great potential in QBID or he would not be here.
BT, you can't fool anyone.
Posted by g-invest on :
quote:Originally posted by Pennies to Dollars: Let me clear up any confusion that ghosty or others may be causing some of you. When you invest in QBID, you are investing in its subsidiaries as well. You are buying shares of Triangle Multi-Media, which owns Q Television. To put it in layman's terms, the success of the Q Television Network will very much affect the value of QBID stock. This is the absolute truth. Anything else you may have previously read is merely heresay and in no way should it be considered as factual. If there are any skeptical investors reading this that would like further evidence of substantiation, feel free to PM me and I will kindly enlighten you.
In addition to this, I tried to look up what the poster claimed as an example of a subsidiary that QTV owned and the shareholders got "nothing" (PSTS). The only thing I found was a blurb from a website that used to own a stake in it and when QBID bought them out they converted PSTS shares to QBID shares. So I have a feeling that the original poster didn't have a clue what they were talking about. I'd be interested in seeing more information if they had it, though.

Wendy: I see that you have finished the programming grid for this week and to my dismay still no “Q television” programming.
I respect the fact that your answered my e-mail and was honest with me about your reviewing the Qtelevision programming. While I am saddened that you are not airing it at this time, I also know that good things come to those who wait.
OutTV and Pridevision are doing a great job and I have no doubt that those efforts will pay off in the end. I just pray that our “Q” gets off to a start soon.

BT, Big, Big Tip, Ghosty,,etc. I also am not happy right now as an investor. But I will continue to hold. That's my decision. I don't understand people with no shares continuing to post. Ghosty, you have admitted to swinging on 3 clicks in the past. Big, You have swung this many times and said you will never buy qbid again. OK that's fine and dandy but why do you spend hours on this board.
I don't get it. Why waste your time?

Posted by Penny-Trader on :
all i can say is this
you have posted these questions, and concerns and fears. we have addressed everything you have brought here with answers and referenced too what you are looking for. Not once did you thank us for addressing them, nor have you accepted anything given to you as an explanation.
instead you continue to quote people from other boards that you well know are not credible from the responces at the other boards, bring those posts here and present them as gospel truth, and then argue about weather or not they are true, and you wonder why you get the reactioin that you do? my god my 12 year old niece could see through your game. If you want to be part of this board and find out information that you are obviously not able to find on your own, we will by all means help you with that. But you need to stop the crap that you have been pulling.
just once i would like to see you bring in one bit of positive information about Q. I dont care if you cut and paste it, just bring in a positive bit of info. Can you do that?
You are obviously trying to make a name for yourself as another U4, but you are no where near as wise as U4 was. as much as he bashed the stock, he had the facts straight enough to manipulate them in a manner that could almost be believable.
So do yourself and us a favour and find out what it is you want out of this stock, this board and your life and do the decent thing and be civil. This board is one of the few out there that have decent people on it and all you are doing is causing them to turn away in discust. Bob has worked very hard on getting this investor board to where it is and quite frankly i can not understand why he allows you to carry on like this.
JMHO

What I am upset about is the lack of follow through and things that did not happen, or mistakes. We placed an AD in USA Today that had a misprint, along with another misprin in another magainze I forgot the name of. Then Oxygen, Liz Taylor, superbowl, Presidential innaguration, etc. This stock should be a *lot* higher than .0021 right now, especially if everything Frank is saying in these PR's are true. For example, the price during the last run reached a high of .009 on 12/01/2004. Now, it is .0021 on 04/28/2005. That's a 76.7% decline. Now factor in that there's been *over* 30 PR's since December. We need financials, subscription amounts, and real carriers. With no financials, how is anyone going to take the company seriously? Even if they post them and show a loss, it will still make investors have more confidence in them for being honest. Same thing with subscription numbers. Frank said we will be available to 16,000,000 homes by June - let's see if that happens. If we can get the carriers and move onto a better exchange (which I hope Frank can do, even though Renee said they can't pass an audit), then more investors will be aware of QBID since most do not even touch penny stocks. Then things will start to happen and everyone can throw their Vegas party they've been talking about since April '04. [/QB]

Last Post: This will be my last post until after Q SkyRockets. I am tired of the Bull***t from the Bashers. Within the past week I have viewed 2 shows on the Cable. One on Oxygen and One on HBO. The content of the Two shows was gross and discusting. I feel very strongly that Q programs have got to be more positive and worthwhile for viewing on Television. Good Luck to all of you Honest Dedicated Q Investors. Ricardo

Penney trader...Looks like your working late as well..Ghosty is good week-end entertainment...Remember his fine DD work on CHIT..Anyway , he's just small potatoes..Besides ,Ghosty is some sort of machine that has to be up dated periodicaly, thats why he doesn't make any sense... Last week-end myself and others,were speculating on a 50% increase in PPS this week..We based this on the low PPS and historical jumps of the past..But ,most important to me is the MM'S manipulating this thing ,if they let go ,it's gone.. ..It formed a decending plateau..One day left for a run this week...

Hi Sam,
Been a while. Lookin' for Q to bounce out of these 2's.....and also gettin' the rounds goin'. CHEERS!
Posted by buckwheatbob on :
Actually I already knew what he was getting at.I was just having a little fun with him like he does with us.I am not green at this at all by any means.If Ghosty is going to post the things he does and claims not to be a basher,then he needs to promote himself as just that.
In my eyes he has a lot of work to do.Cutting and pasting is not a good sign unless a disclaimer goes with it. Just cutting and pasting with no reason behind it leaves his motive for wide open interpritation.I am sure many others agree.I am not going to bother with this anymore because it is becoming a waste of time.
One note I would like to make to you though,I had a look at your web site,keep up the good work.

What he posted was VERBATIM from any generic WHOIS query. The "database" thing is entirely internal, it's not his data. He is absolutely correct, there is no denying that the individual in question is listed as the contact for that domain.
Now, the question is, is QBID going to change it. If they do, then that is VERY suspicious because it means they have something to hide. Keep that in mind. Also, if they change any of the contact information, the "database last updated" portion will say whatever date they make the change.

I respect the fact that your answered my e-mail and was honest with me about your reviewing the Qtelevision programming. While I am saddened that you are not airing it at this time, I also know that good things come to those who wait.
OutTV and Pridevision are doing a great job and I have no doubt that those efforts will pay off in the end. I just pray that our “Q” gets off to a start soon.
Thanks for taking the time to read this e-mail

Good move to buy more, I have finished accumulating, the buyback will no doubt be beneficial to us shareholders. IMO I feel that it's also necassary to do another buyback to get us to another exchange. Frank, knows what he is doing and once again IMO he has been advised by the lawyers to do a buyback. New exchange here we come Posted by whizknock on :
What's so hard to understand????
Even Frank knows when you do a buyback and reduce the outstanding it increases the value of what you have in your float! Makes a much better bargaining chip when purchasing equipment for equity!

One that serves the purpose of the gay and lesbian television community and also keeps investor sentiment high," stated Frank Olsen, President and CEO of Q Television Network.

That way they buy from now until next month on any dips below that set price.

This is not exact but it should be close.Thanks to Matt:
QBID - A Technical Analysis
QBID is a pink sheet stock currently in the sub-penny price range. Because of their pink sheet status all numbers given are pure speculation.
The Outstanding Share Theory
In Februaru 2004 it was noted that there were 15 billion authorized shares with 7.5 billion of those outstanding
To maintain majority vote, Frank Olsen, president owns 53% of the O/S. 3.975 Billion. This leaves 3.525 billion in the float
After a large increase in PPS, Q Television Network, QTN, dilutes the price and releases 2 billion more shares into the outstanding shares from the authorized shares.
After the dilution there are 9.5 billion outstanding shares. Frank owns 53%, or 5.035 billion, and the float is now 4.465 billion.
To expand, QTN receives a loan to acquire movie deals and rights to broadcast the 2006 Gay Games in Chicago. As collateral, QTN creates 6 billion more outstanding shares. Since the original 15 billion authorized shares were not enough to release 6 billion into the outstanding shares, the authorized shares count was increased to 50 billion.
Outstanding shares are now 15.5 billion. Frank still only owns 5.035 billion and the float is still just 4.465 billion. The 6 billion new shares are just for collateral. These 6 billion are restricted shares.
An announced buyback is completed in late December, 2005. Although the official number of shares bought back is not announced, it is speculated that at least 1 billion were bought back.
Therefore there are 3.465 billion in the float, 5.035 billion owned by Frank, and 6 billion restricted shares. We can assume Frank only wants to own 53% of the shares not including the restricted shares. Therefore he can also reduce his share count by 1.128 billion shares to 3.907 billion.
Thus the total, estimated, outstanding share count would be the 6 billion restricted + 3.907 billion of Franks shares + 3.465 billion in the float. Total = 13.372 billion shares outstanding.
After the loan is repaid and there is no need for collateral the 6 billion restricted shares can be destroyed. Future estimated outstanding share count is then 7.372 billion shares.
I would like to thank Ric from Allstocks.com for the clear and concise explanation of the closest estimate we have right now
My theory On the Outstanding Shares
I agree entirely with Ric on the above estimates. I do have some further theories as well. It is in my opinion that we will all receive a much welcome surprise about the outstanding share count. I believe that Frank and company have bought back much more than just 1 billion shares. Here are my thoughts:
For one, there was never an official number given in the press release about the buyback completition. Why would they not release the information on how many shares were bought back? In the same buyback completion press release they also titled it the "initial buyback." Which would lead us to assume that perhaps there will be more buybacks. I believe they are indeed buying back more shares but on a continual basis so as to not cause a stir. If they released that they bought back over 10% of the outstanding shares, not including the 6 billion restricted, this could very well have rose the price and made it more difficult for them to buyback more shares.
Frank also has a history of building companies and selling them. Although Frank is gay and this could be the most connected Frank could feel to a company, history is most likely to repeat itself. Therefore Frank is going to want to build a share structure and company that are appealing to potential buyers. What is a buyer going to be more interested in? Company A that has billions of shares, is a pink sheet, and has a price that is fluctuated by rumors, pumpers, and bashers? Or Company B that has a few billion shares outstanding, is not a pink sheet, and has stable price fluctuations that are directly correlated to the performance of the company? If Frank wants the best offers for QBID he'll want to set up a company that is great as a network and an investment.
Price of QBID Now and in the Future
Just to show the possible future price of QBID and why it is a profitable investment I'll throw out some numbers.
If there are 13.372 shares outstanding, given by the model above, then our current market cap is $46,802,000. Current PPS at the time of writing this is .0035.
Frank Olsen is quoted from the conferance call that he expects QBID to reach a total value of $5 billion eventually. I consider this a very modest estimate considering BET was bought out for $5 billion and they "never made a dime and never posted profit," according to Frank Olsen.
So divide 5 billion by $46,802,000. You'll get 106.8330413. Multiply that by the current PPS of .0035 and you'll get a rough estimate on future PPS. .3739. Not so bad huh?
Now consider what happens when the 6 billion shares are retired. That leaves only 7.732 billion shares to equal 5 billion dollars. The PPS would then be .6782. How many of you would be millionaires at this point?
Lastly factor in my theory that more than the initial billion have been bought back. All of us longs could be in for a wild ride; not even considering that a worth of 5 billion was a modest estimate for the potential of Q Television Network in my opinion.
----Take into account the first buy back is complete and now anther one is starting.Let the good news just keep coming.----------

That way they buy from now until next month on any dips below that set price.

today pr just stirred up alot of smoke out there. keep reading thr pr over and over, still cannot make it out. if frank wanna buy back shares, why announced it for the pps to run up to cost him more? unless the buy back has been done. but this time, the pr only mentioned the buyback, and not with the retirement.

and obviously, the pr could not make the run; hopefully, it sustains the current pps level. did anyone swing this morning?

IMO, yes I am of the opinion that the initial meeting with the lawyers went well. I also believe that they have the share count done and the lawyers indicated to Frank that he will have to reduce the share count to get to another exchange. Now don't quote me on that because its JMHO But never the less a good guess.

Even Frank knows when you do a buyback and reduce the outstanding it increases the value of what you have in your float! Makes a much better bargaining chip when purchasing equipment for equity!
"I am committed to running a well-rounded company. One that serves the purpose of the gay and lesbian television community and also keeps investor sentiment high," stated Frank Olsen, President and CEO of Q Television Network. "This immediate investment in our company will also allow us the resources to purchase even better equipment for the Gay Games," added Olsen.

Or lack of carrier information, etc. I was running the show, and I wanted to buy back as many shares as possible at a low of price as possible. Then, I would try to keep every one confused. I would have people bickering on raging bull. I would try my best to keep the share holders discouraged, so they would sell as many shares as possible. I would put out press releases that were not very much. I would just slowly keep buying shares, until I owned just about every share out there. If you do just a little math, you can see how little money it would take to buy many shares.If my calculations are correct, it would only take $2,200,000.00 to buy one billion shares. And you will say that is a lot of money, yes it is. But it is not very much money to people who have money. If you hold onto that one billion shares for awhile. And then the share price goes up to .022. I belIEve that the original $2,200,000 investment is now worth $22,000,00. That is am easy way to make some Quick money. The only downside of this thinking, what if QBID never goes up? But if you know that you have a good product, and you already know how you are going to sell it. SO WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? BUY, BUY!!!!!!!!!!! - - - - -

Jump to msg. # Oldone&Stocken, make no mistake about it Frank and Co are behind the current pps performance. I agree it is much cheaper to buy back shares at these pps and also allows the people that have faith in him stay long or continue to add to their positions. One of the major accomplishments that was achieved is that no matter how fledgling we are labeled to be, is that we are the only GLBT network on 24h a day 7 days a week in the US. I think signing up RCN was a big deal. We are on the air, there are people actually paying every month to watch our programming right now as I type in several major metropolitan cities. That is not something that can be ignored and belittled. Frank proved to us that he can do it, now we will have to let him execute his business plan. Do not get distracted by the chatter about GMGA show, Oxygen law suit and such. These thing matter less than we most think. HereTV and LOGO are actually the ones watching every move as close as possible because Frank has put them to shame not only in the eyes of the industry but in the eyes of the gay community. Some will say we are having trouble signing other carriers, so is LOGO and HereTV is VOD. From what I am hearing it is te foreign carriers that are knocking on our doors not the other way around. Just wait and see. Let the foreign carriers put the heat on the US carriers it will not take long. Now, Verizon has decided to join the fight also so that would put extra pressure on the Comcast and DirectTV.Let C. Rasenberger handle all cable accounts and let Hinnant handle all satellite accounts. It will happen for us, no doubt about it. It may take longer than we thought but it sounds so good that I will repeat it again: "WE are the first and only 24/7 GLBT network in the USA right now, you can not deny that!

Not only are here tv & logo watching us, they're rooting for us!

In so far as QBID being the only G/L network on the air 24/7,,,

this is going to be big, very very big.
I have a good feeling about this one. the progress that they have made in the first quarter of this year has been absolutely outstanding.

Posted by Pennies to Dollars on :
I cannot repeat myself enough. Frank knows what lies ahead for his company. If he didn't think Q Television was going to be successfull in the very near future, he wouldn't keep buying more shares. Of course, this is my opinion only, but does it not make sense?

American Bulls Says Buy Confirmed!
TRIANGLE MULTI-MEDIA INC Daily Commentary
Our system posted a BUY CONFIRMED today. The previous SELL recommendation that was confirmed was made on 03.23.2005 (38) days ago, when the stock price was 0.0034. Since then QBID has fallen -35.29% .
Were you eager to go long? Well, without doubt, it was the right time to do so. The BUY signal was finally confirmed, and most probably you have called your broker and placed your long orders with no hesitation.
Don't worry if you have missed this buying opportunity. The market may now give you a second chance. You may still find good prices for buying in the next session.
[MOTTO OF THE DAY] Buying was right in a nice bullish day Hold your stocks now whatever they say
Back in January one of you was discussing with me how Frank may very well have a surprise for us when it comes to Out Standing share count. We felt like he was buying the whole time even after he confirmed the "first phase" of the buy-back was complete.
Well, I think we were pretty much on target!

I hope something big happens soon, but baby steps are the way this needs to go. If it makes another run to .0040, we'll see people bailing and the PPS falling yet again. I'm not a big fan of hearing people daytrading QBID. QBID is a long investment for many of us.

I believe Franks move regarding the equipment is a smart one. I have been a video systems consultant for a number of years. Now Frank has mentioned in the past about taking QTN High Definition, equipment that currently is very expensive. Each year in April NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) has their annual convention in Las Vegas which shows all the latest broadcast equipment. The bottom line is if Frank can hold out till next April's NAB show, that High Definition camera that costs $65,000 today may only cost $45,000 next year etc. In other words he could potentially save hundreds of thousands of dollars by waiting. So why not take the money he has earmarked for production equipment,(which isn't going to be used until next summer's Gay Games), and invest it in the company's stock (which he has the inside track in knowing he's going to move the pps up.) And purchase the same or equivalent equipment for a lot less money. Great thinking IMO.

Casper, great find. I have been in this stock since Feb. '04 and can remember when the mention of QTV anywhere was a huge thing, now we see it mentioned as one of the three gay networks emerging in the country. Frank has messed up a lot of things during the past year, mostly in releasing PR's that never quite came to fruition but he did promise to make QTV a nationally recognized TV network and he is well on the way to having that happen. QTV is not going anywhere, it will make it and make it in a big way. I can't remember a day in the last year that QBID has been off this stock board's first page. That shows the endurance and the interest in this thing and it will payoff for all of us with patience, and that is why I don't post much anymore, because like Whiz always says it's a matter of time, nothing more, nothing less. If you are new here and are not in this stock in a big way at these prices you are possibly missing one of the greatest opportunities to ever present it's self in the pennies. (sub-pennies) This is all in my opinion of course, but if I wrote here the amount of money Q has already made me in the past year, no one would believe it anyway. GLTA

Posted by Penny-Trader on :
yes i saw 8 of them.
they are large buys. they could have been MM's filling thier banks again or it could be the start of Franks buy back again.
no one can answer that for sure, any answer to this will be speculation. The only facts that we have is that the trades did happen and they happened very close together.
Welcome to the board MillerTIME. be careful as to any advice you get from this or any other board. keep an eye on the board and you will quickly learn the intentions of the posters.
most here are great. some are just here to create havoc and lower investor confidence.
most here are long holding investors that see the stock for its amazing potential. In time you will see that there are long time posters to the board that feel this is going to be a very large win fall. I am one of them.
what ever you do make sure you carefully check out the validity of any news posted here or any other board you go to, and most of all please make decision's on whether to buy or sell this or any other stock, based on your own feelings.
I have been accused of being a pumper on many occasions on this thread. I don't feel i am. I share my feelings as to the validity of this company and i post any time i buy this stock. This has to be your own decision and you have to feel good about it.
again welcome to the board, and best of luck to you with your investment in Q

A couple things that I keep reminding myself about to keep me focused on a much higher pps are:
1) Once we get onto a higher exchange, it opens Q up to big investor purchasing. Most funds etc., are not allowed to invest in pink sheet stocks. Furthermore, a higher exchange brings everything into the open.. no more hiding anyting! 2) In the investment world, many people have a lower boundary of stock pps that they dare not cross. For me their is no limit, however, many people have limits of 0.01, 0.10, 1.00, 5.00 etc. I believe that once it clear 0.01, then another segment of investors will jump in as well.

PALM SPRINGS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 18, 2005--Triangle Multi-Media, (PINK SHEETS:QBID - News) announced today that the company will meet this week with the law firm of Sichenzia, Ross, Friedman & Ference LLP to begin the process of removing themselves from the Pink Sheets. Sichenzia, Ross, Friedman & Ference LLP will formally begin the preliminary application process to have Triangle Multi-Media become a fully reporting company,
**** the prestigious law firm will immediately begin counseling Triangle Multi-Media on the requirements needed to be listed with another exchange.
IMO: They have begun and have given the initial report to Frank= thus= the decision to further reduce the share count to get to another exchange. The move maybe not that far away.
10 Days after the initial meeting Frank announces another buyback hummmmmmm any connection? do you think?
