"All we ever had to do is launch!"

"At a time when other TV audiences are shrinking, Hispanic TV is a media darling because its viewership just keeps on growing. So far this year, an average of 3.7 million viewers catch Spanish-language movies and south-of-the-border telenovelas (soap operas) on either Telemundo or Univision, according to Nielsen Media Research, an 8.7% jump over the year before. Those numbers helped the two networks record double-digit ad-sales growth for the coming season even as the slowing economy has slashed ad sales elsewhere in TV-land. The U.S. Hispanic population, now 33.6 million and the country's fastest-growing segment, is expected to top 43 million by 2010 (charts). "

This article is from 2001 but still the gay community is estimated at 34 million.

"SERIOUS VIEWERS. What's more, Hispanics tend to watch more TV, on average, than other viewers, are younger, and have rising disposable income. By 2010, U.S. Hispanics will spend $1 trillion a year on goods and services, up from the $444 billion in 2000, according to Standard & Poor's/DRI, a unit of The McGraw-Hill Cos., BusinessWeek's publisher. With those numbers, ``they're no longer an afterthought for us,'' says Andy Donchin, director of broadcast for media buyer Carat North America, which has stepped up ad sales on Hispanic TV for clients such as Pfizer Inc. and Alberto Culver hair products."

Like I said the gay community is better off. $544 billion in disposable income at least, if not the $600 billion.

"HOT PROPERTY. Those kinds of multiples have driven up the price for Univision, which draws an average 1.7 million households a night, five times BET's audience. With its 32 TV stations and Galavision, the top-rated Hispanic cable channel, Univision could more than double its value within a year, to $11 billion, or $55 a share, predicts P. Gordon Hodge, an analyst with Thomas Weisel Partners LLC. Earlier this year, Viacom offered $30 a share, or about $7 billion, say industry sources, but was rebuffed. "

Why do I feel like QTE can get more than 1.7 million viewers a night? Perhaps because there is no other competition right now. There are a few spanish channels, such as Telemundo, that take away viewers from Univision. The article later describes how even telemundo, which is smaller than Univision, has been offered $3 billion. Perhaps those offers came a few years after the launching of each station but it sounds to me like our homosexual community makes for a better target to advertisers than hispanics. Are the values $1 billion within a year and $5-6 billion in 5 years conservative estimates?

By the way, Univision, UVN, is trading at $29.41 with Shares Outstanding: 323.20M
Float: 206.90M

Here's the whole article:

MEDIA GIANTS ARE GLUED TO LATINO TV

by Ronald Grover in Los Angeles | Sep 24 '01

The Hispanic Television Network is so far a network in name only. Launched early last year, HTVN reaches scarcely 15% of the country. It's essentially a patchwork of 20 TV stations and agreements with cable systems, most of which have yet to air their first salsa music hour. In the 18 months since launching, HTVN has lost $51.7 million on $1.8 billion in revenues. But those numbers haven't deterred several of the largest media companies from going to Fort Worth to sound out potential deals. ``They're names you'd recognize,'' says HTVN Chief Operating Officer Michael Fletcher. ``I don't think anyone can be in the business [of Hispanic TV] right now and not get calls like this.''

In fact, to media giants caught in the frenzy to consolidate, no business seems hotter these days than Spanish-language TV. For months, Telemundo, the No. 2 Hispanic TV network, based in Hialeah, Fla., has been fielding inquiries from Walt Disney, Viacom, AOL Time Warner, and General Electric's NBC, industry insiders say. According to these sources, Viacom made a bid earlier this year--rejected as too low--for Los Angeles-based Univision Communications Inc., the top network in the field, with an estimated 80% of the Hispanic market. Viacom President Mel Karmazin says there was never a ``formal offer'' for Univision. But at Viacom's annual meeting in May, he put shareholders on notice that he's set to buy Hispanic TV assets at the right price. Univision refused comment.

At a time when other TV audiences are shrinking, Hispanic TV is a media darling because its viewership just keeps on growing. So far this year, an average of 3.7 million viewers catch Spanish-language movies and south-of-the-border telenovelas (soap operas) on either Telemundo or Univision, according to Nielsen Media Research, an 8.7% jump over the year before. Those numbers helped the two networks record double-digit ad-sales growth for the coming season even as the slowing economy has slashed ad sales elsewhere in TV-land. The U.S. Hispanic population, now 33.6 million and the country's fastest-growing segment, is expected to top 43 million by 2010 (charts).

SERIOUS VIEWERS. What's more, Hispanics tend to watch more TV, on average, than other viewers, are younger, and have rising disposable income. By 2010, U.S. Hispanics will spend $1 trillion a year on goods and services, up from the $444 billion in 2000, according to Standard & Poor's/DRI, a unit of The McGraw-Hill Cos., BusinessWeek's publisher. With those numbers, ``they're no longer an afterthought for us,'' says Andy Donchin, director of broadcast for media buyer Carat North America, which has stepped up ad sales on Hispanic TV for clients such as Pfizer Inc. and Alberto Culver hair products.

Big Media's new interest in Hispanic TV is part of a push to collect niche programming, such as the Walt Disney Co.'s recent purchase of the Family Channel. And ethnic TV is especially hot. Last year, Viacom paid $3 billion in stock for Black Entertainment Television, a price industry insiders say was 20 times BET's cash flow, or nearly double what traditional TV outlets command. ``Viacom was saying to the rest of us that niche players matter and that they were willing to pay up for them,'' says one media executive.

HOT PROPERTY. Those kinds of multiples have driven up the price for Univision, which draws an average 1.7 million households a night, five times BET's audience. With its 32 TV stations and Galavision, the top-rated Hispanic cable channel, Univision could more than double its value within a year, to $11 billion, or $55 a share, predicts P. Gordon Hodge, an analyst with Thomas Weisel Partners LLC. Earlier this year, Viacom offered $30 a share, or about $7 billion, say industry sources, but was rebuffed. Instead Univision, controlled by former boxing promoter A. Jerrold Perenchio, expanded last year into music and in early 2002 intends to launch a second network aimed at English-speaking Hispanics. Its drawing power is huge. Last year, its Spanish-language movie Las Delicias del Poder drew 1.1 million more Hispanic viewers than NBC's highest rated movie, Titanic. And its nightly Noticiero TV news show often outdraws the Big Three network offerings.

In this climate, once-troubled Telemundo is also drawing intense interest. The privately held network has rebounded from a 1993 bankruptcy to build its audience by 48% after revamping its programming in 1997. It delivers only one-fourth of Univision's audience, but Telemundo's ratings in the May sweeps climbed 30% among the prized 18-49 age group with hot shows such as novela Betty La Fea (Betty the Ugly). Taking on Univision's popular afternoon talk show Cristina, Telemundo's Laura en America became a huge hit with 1 million viewers daily. The bidding so far for Telemundo is said to have hit $3 billion, a sharp hike from the estimated $700 million paid by its majority owners Sony Corp. and John C. Malone's Liberty Media Corp. in 1997. The company has been adding distribution, spending $304 million last year to expand its station group to 24, including in top Hispanic markets Los Angeles and Dallas.

A bid for Telemundo, expected in the coming weeks, could spark bidding for other Hispanic TV assets, including those that produce programs. Some cable companies such as AOL Time Warner and AT&T are said to be pursuing Mexican TV producer TV Azteca, whose year-old plan to launch a network with TV station owner Pappas Telecasting Cos. has been slow to roll out. As for the fledgling HTVN, Michael Fletcher says he's got his cell phone handy.

Just had a chance to catch up on the BB. Thanks for the support.

Go Q!

EVERYTHING IS MOVING FORWARD. WHILE MOST WILL TELL YOU THAT IT'S DROPPED
TO
THE CURRENT SUB-PENNY OF .008+/- FROM .018 A FEW WEEKS AGO AND A RECENT
HIGH
OF .027 MEANS IT'S A FRAUD. WELL A .02 STOCK FROM .0001 ISN'T ALL THAT
MUCH
OF ANYTHING TO BASE YOUR OPINION ON. MOST ARE ATTACKING THIS STOCK AT THE
..02 LEVEL AS THOUGH IT'S LISTED ON NASDAQ WITH FULL REPORTING. IF THE
STOCK
WERE SITTING AT .05 RIGHT NOW, NO ONE WOULD BE COMPLAINING AND YOU WOULD
HEAR THE CONTINUED SINGING AND PRAISES OF HOW WONDERFUL AND WHAT A GREAT
FUTURE Q-TV HAS. THE BOTTOM LINE HAS ALWAYS BEEN WITH THIS STOCK, LAUNCH
AND GIVE US THE STRENGTH OF ADVERTISERS. WELL WE HAVE 50% OF THE EQUATION
BEING TEST LAUNCH MAY 15. SOFT LAUNCH JUNE 1 AND "FULL" 8 HR PROGRAMMING
REPEATED 3 TIMES FOR A 24-HR BROADCAST. FRANK OLSEN (CEO) HAS MADE IT
CLEAR
HE WILL NOT RELEASE INFO PERTAINING TO CARRIAGE, MEANING CARRIER
PROVIDERS,
UNTIL HE HAS THE SIGNED CONTRACT IN HAND. WE CAN ONLY GO BY WHAT CONCRETE
FACTS WE HAVE AND THE LAUNCH IS A CONCRETE FACT. YOU CAN TURN ON TV AND
SEE
IT.

Q-TV IS A GOOD OPPORTUNITY AND IN MY OPINION, AT .008 A GOOD TIME TO JUMP
ON
BOARD. YOUR SITTING IN THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME WITH A
GAY/LESBIAN
TV STATION.

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER ABOUT THIS STOCK.. 1 IT'S A PINK. 2 PEOPLE ON
MESSAGE BOARDS CREATE 95% OF SEC COMPLAINTS ABOUT A STOCK AND THOSE 95%
ARE
USUALLY PINK SHEET STOCKS. MOST PEOPLE WHO POST DO NOT KNOW HOW STOCKS
WORK
AND SIMPLY BELIEVE THAT SINCE A STOCK IS GOING UP IN PRICE, IT MUST BE
DOING
SOMETHING RIGHT AND WHEN IT GOES DOWN, SOMETHING MUST BE WRONG (FRAUD).
WE
LIVE IN A TABLOIDS SOCIETY AND PEOPLE ARE MORE CONCERNED WITH WHO BRITANY
SPEARS IS GETTING MARRIED TO AND KNOW MORE ABOUT THAT THEN THEY DO ABOUT
THE
STOCKS THEY ARE CLAIMING TO BE FRAUDS. ALSO THE SAME PEOPLE WHO GET ON
BOARDS AND CLAIM FRAUD OR WHAT A JOKE A CERTAIN STOCK IS ARE THE SAME
ONE'S
WHO SIT AT HOME, CLICK ON A MESSAGE BOARD TO RANT AND HAVE DONE ABSOLUTLY
NOTHING FOR THE COMPANY AND IT'S SHARE PRICE. THEY ALL USE THE STANDARD
WELL I OWN THE COMPANY I'M INVESTED IN BUT AREN'T WILLING TO DO ANYTHING
TO
HELP. CASE IN POINT, NUMEROUS PEOPLE IN MIAMI OWN Q-TV AND NOT ONE OF
THEM
HAS DONE ANYTHING TO ASSIST IN PROMOTION FOR Q-TV IN A HIGH POPULATION OF
GAY PEOPLE BUT WILL BE THE FIRST IN LINE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT HOW Q-TV ISN'T
DOING ANYTHING.

SO I'LL HOLD THIS STOCK FOR THE NEXT YEAR TAKING INTO ACCOUNT WHAT IS
TRULY
INVOLVED IN STARTING A TELEVISION STATION AS WELL AS A GAY ONE IN THIS DAY
AND AGE. SUCH A GOOD IDEA A COMPANY SUCH A CBS/VIACOM ANNOUNCES THAT IT'S
FOLLOWING THROUGH AND WILL BEGIN BROADCAST FEB 18, 2005 OF IT'S GAY "LOGO"
NETWORK.

I NEVER PAY MUCH ATTENTION TO PEOPLE TELLING ME HOW HORRIBLE A STOCK IS
WHEN
THESE ARE THE SAME PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN A COUNTRY THAT WORKS ON THE DOUBLE
STANDARD PRINCIPAL TO FIT THEIR VIEWS.

CASE AND POINT. LOOK AT ALL THE PEOPLE SAYING QBID IS A FRAUD AND HAVE NO
KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HOW TO START A TV STATION OR WHAT'S INVOLVED AND FURTHER,
THEY CAN SAY IT'S A FRAUD BUT PROVE IT. AGAIN, WE GO BACK TO 50% WAS
GETTING A SIGNAL UP AND RUNNING WHICH WE ARE AND THE OTHER 25% IS SIGNAL
PROVIDERS AND 25% IS ADVERTISERS.

ULTIMATELY, FRANK AND COMPANY ARE WORKING IN CALIFORNIA TRYING TO MAKE
THIS
WORK AND THEIR FINANCIAL SUCCESS IS BASED UPON THE SHARES THEY ARE ABLE TO
SELL ONCE THEY ARE UP AND RUNNING A COMPLETE NETWORK.

FACTS ARE:

SIGNAL IS UP 24HRS

FRANK MADE IT CLEAR HE MADE THE MISTAKE RELEASEING SIGNAL INFO BACK IN
2000
WHEN HE WAS NOT AUTHORIZED TO DO SO AND CAUSED PROBLEMS SO HE'S NOT
RELEASING THE CURRENT (PENDING) INFO HE HAS UNTIL CONFIRMATION.

YOU CAN FORM YOUR OWN CONCLUSION WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE ACTIVELY SEEKING
ADVERTISERS. I BELIEVE THAT SINCE WE HAVE THE ABOVE 2 FACTS THAT
ADVERTISING IS A GIVEN.

.005 would look sooo good right now!

I would love to see the actual programming we keep hearing about!

Im just a 25yo just out of medical school trying to make a little niche for my future, many frieds just say I'm a dreamer with high hopes for this company..

I'm surprised no one commented on what I posted last night/this morning. My main question was does anyone else think the $1 billion in one year - $6 billion in 5 years is a conservative value? What would happen to us if Frank did sell QBID to a company like Time Warner or Viacom for $10 billion or so instead of just signing contracts with them? Matt

Matt,

Just as soon as I find the QBID crystal ball, I will have all of the answers for you.

I have found pennyland to be more complex than I had expected. Reading past threads on all of my penny stocks has given me a wider perspective of "some" aspects.

I'm still reading everything that I can find.......

Again, there are many opinions and many facts on the last and the previous threads of QBID and others that may interest you--try it--you will get a fuller picture.

Now that is a sure thing!

howdy man,
keep up the smiley face - keep up the spirit. am heading for that 1 mil share mark. hope that my kids dont have to wear cloth diapers that long...

Get in on this ground floor investmenent while you can. QBID will be the next big Network of our time. I will reluctantly let go of 500,000 shares this week and this week only for the low low price of .25 a share. For just $125,000.00 dollars you can too own this spectacular company. This is for a limited time only and after this week it will go up double in price.

i have not heard of any deals on signing but i thought he had signed before they went on strike.

i have not been following to closely anything hockey related other then the fact that they are not back at it yet.

Because it really is rambling that makes no sense. And if he starts a new thread lets do one reply that states this is untrue go to the QBID thread for the real facts.
