Well guys I figure its time to play the numbers game.
According to http://www.census.gov/ the population of New York City, Boston, and San Francisco totals 9,419,040. So,as of today, 32,000 subscriptions. 32,000 x $4.95 = $158,400 per month. ($4.95 take home, as RCN gets $3.00, correct me if wrong).
--NOW LETS BROADCAST NATION-WIDE--
According to http://www.census.gov/ the population of the United States is 296,414,637. So using same per capita basis as above, we have 1,008,214 subscriptions. 1,008,214 x $4.95 = $4,990,660 per month

The customer base is up to 32,000 who pay the monthly fee. So far they have another 30,000 who is in the process of hooking up to the Q.
here's something to think about. whats the chances that the 30,000 in the process of hooking up, are waiting for the cable boxes. what are the chances that they would have 30,000 boxes sitting around. lets face it. this is a pay channel. those customers that have the boxes, only have to call and have it turned on.
What about the basic subs that all of a sudden want the Q and don't have the cable box.
this could well be the case. lets say the 30,000 waiting are split evenly among our 3 cities airing the Q. that is still 10,000 boxes per city. how many would they keep in stock. I'm guessing several hundred maybe??
30,000 boxes would be one hell of a storage area, and one hell of a large inventory to be sitting on.
who knows maybe that is why RCN has not opened the other markets yet. they have just come out of bankruptcy. may be a cost factor for them.

NEW YORK (AP) — Adelphia Communications Corp. founder John Rigas was sentenced Monday to 15 years in prison for his role in looting and hiding debt in a scandal that bankrupted the cable television company.
U.S. District Judge Leonard Sand said he would have imposed a much harsher sentence but for Rigas' age — he is 80 — and poor health.
His son, the company's former chief financial officer Timothy Rigas, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.
The pair had faced up to 30 years in prison each on their bank fraud convictions alone. They were also convicted of securities fraud and conspiracy.
Federal sentencing guidelines would make the sentence far less than 30 years, but the Supreme Court also ruled earlier this year that federal judges should consider the guidelines as advisory, not mandatory.
“Long ago, he set Adelphia on a track of lying, of cheating, of defrauding,” Sand said of the elder Rigas. “Regrettably for everyone, this was not stopped over 10 years ago. It got more urgent and culminated in one of the largest frauds in corporate history.”
Before the sentence was handed down, Rigas acknowledged that “mistakes were made” in the way he ran the company, but said he intended no wrong.
“I may be convicted and sentenced,” said Rigas, “but in my heart and conscience, I'll go to my grave believing truly that I did nothing but try to improve conditions” for the company and his family.
The judge said that if Rigas serves at least two years and is judged by prison officials to have less than three months to live, prison officials can ask the court to cut the sentence short.
The Rigas sentencing came just three days after another major white-collar conviction: A state court jury found former Tyco International Ltd. CEO L. Dennis Kozlowski and former Tyco CFO Mark Swartz guilty of looting that company of $600-million (U.S.).
Former WorldCom CEO Bernard Ebbers faces sentencing next month after he was convicted of presiding over that company's record $11-billion accounting fraud.
John Rigas founded Adelphia with a $300 license in 1952, took it public in 1986 and built it into a cable titan by acquiring other systems in the 1990s.
The company, then based in tiny Coudersport, Pa., collapsed into bankruptcy in 2002 after it disclosed a staggering $2.3 billion in off-balance-sheet debt. It now operates under bankruptcy protection in Greenwood Village, Colo.
At the trial, prosecutors said the Rigases used complicated cash-management systems to spread money around to various family-owned entities and as a cover for stealing about $100 million for themselves.
The Rigases are among a slew of former corporate executives who have faced charges since the fall of Enron in 2001 touched off a parade of white-collar scandals.

The Rigas', Ken Lay, Mark Swartz, Bernard Ebbers, and Dennis Kozlowski. Simply because they are screwing with peoples' futures and money. I am not forgiving when it comes to this kind of crime. Maybe we should adopt islamic law and maybe just cut off a hand or something. No, actually an arm, because they have probably done it more than once.

Well, the meter on the webpage I created topped out at just over 2000 hits in less than 24 hours. I checked in my control panel to see some details on the referring pages, and virtually all of them were from Allstocks, with most of them being unique IP addresses.
I think I'm going to sign up for Raging Bull now and post the picture link there to see what happens to the number of hits.
Anyone else wanting to post a picture I'm happy to offer my services, just send it to casey@gleasonweb.com.
Hilander, you said earlier that you had a pic of a house at the address listed on the business license.....any more to that? And do you want it posted?

Rich735 That's good news . . . because now I can reveal what I remember as QBIB's previous low (at least over the last year or so). It was either 494 or 496. (I feel like Deep Throat, revealing information after all this time.)
When everyone was squabbling over QBID's lowest-ever Risk rating, I kept quiet because I couldn't prove my numbers either. And I felt it was a non-issue. Didn't really matter since QBID was moving in the right direction and Risk Metrics were getting better, even if they weren't setting new lows.
Now that we have a TRUE NEW LOW, we can use this new number as our standard and watch it drop from here. Go Q.

Welcome polo.
Are you saying that Q's Risk rating was lower than this a few days ago? I don't watch those rating much, but the last time I looked it was still over 500. I remember the rating being below 500 many months ago, and I am happy to see it below 500 again. What was the rating a few days ago? I would like to know the lowest rating within the last month. Although it really isn't a great indicator, it's another piece of the puzzle.

You are exactly correct bottomliner. I had another stock on my risk meter last time, and it put QBID at a much different position on the meter. It looked much different, but the number was closer to 500. Sorry about the misunderstanding.
-------------------- Still holding, Still waiting, ...
Don't forget to send your letter to Echostar/DISH Network. 20 letters a day gets Q some play :)
