"Now BlackWidow raises an interesting point. When we do get an audit, is it dated up to and including the day it is released? Or is it some designated date in the current past? June, July? This would allow for more hanky-panky by either party. I would like to hear from someone who is actually in the financial/accounting/securities business on this. I am not, nor will I even pretend to have an opinion on this."
My background is international banking and Fortune 500 accounting. Those types of audits, when issued, are for an "as at" date, ususually 6-8 weeks past. When an audit team arrives they announce what date they are auditing for, usually close of business for the month just ended. An audit for those types of companies is a major undertaking which takes weeks to prepare, so they can't keep updating it.
For what is currently a small firm, such as QTN, I would THINK they could verify to a more up-to- date date, however standard accounting practice would allow a longer lead time and still be acceptable to the financial community.

he stated that we would be profitable by the end of the 2nd quarter, which would place us right at the beginning of the games.
I believe at this point we are going to be up for sale.
Frank admittedly likes to start companies and get them rolling and sell them to the highest bidder.
Look at BET they never made a dime and they where sold for 5 billion dollars.
Frank has on many occasions drawn our attention to that point for a reason. I believe that he was telling us that this is what he has in store for Q Television.
What a great time to sell the company, the company is starting to show a proffit, the buzz of the games will be all over the place, the network will be looking like a polished stone.
I for one am ok with this idea and the timing makes sense to me.
Frank has been pointing to these 3 events for a while and i believe that is the target for saleability of our gem.
I'm ready.
let it happen.

I was reading again the article in the desert sun about Mayor Oden trying to get Q on TWC Nationwide. Could you imagine if this is something they release on Sept.5th.
Carol Hinnant, vice president of acquisitions for Q Television Network, said Tuesday, "We are still talking with Time Warner and hope for a positive resolution in the next couple of months."
Think about it,this was posted July 13th,and the next couple of months would be Sept 5th or so. Man that would be exciting!!!

do you not see the value of buying at these prices?
this is one of the reasons why a stock doesnt run like it should.
if you like the stock you should be buy at current prices. if it goes lower fine, but if no one wants to pay the price it is going for right now the price is going to drop.
eventually someone has to buy at these prices.
the stock is still a hell of a value at this price as well.

just wanted to pop in and give a warm welcome to anyone new here, and or any q faithfuls who are in the lurking mode hehehe. ive been really busy and its extremely warm in nyc lately. so that sort of wears one out..... anyway thank you all for the continued dd that you always provide.i went to a gay restaurant in an area called chelsea, ny, were i casually asked the young couple of guys next to me if they have heard of qtv.with a bit of hesitation they both had heard of it and seemed mildly excited about the idea, but dissapointed with logo's programming.i couldnt agree more with them ive watched logo from time to time and i am going to blindly say i think q will in a very short time be the new leader in the glbt tv market.of course now i would say something like this as i have an interest in q's success. ok well i gotta go very much in need of a good nights sleephehehe. this last week was the first week in many months that i didnt buy qtv once twice or thrice.i had qtv withdrawals all week long. maybe ill pick up a few in the am if we dip.averaging down on a stock that one beleives in is a sound technique in my mind.last week i saw my qtv shares go into the green for the first time since i started accumulating.my avg cost is .018257......something like that.best of luck to you all.oh yeah by the way i avg up all the time too.its not as fun but can be a great technique if a stock is really breaking out.
ok luv from a tired qbidiot.
sincerely noah.

Some have been asking for an opinion on the acquiring of Pridevision/OUTtv. Here are a few thoughts.
In Canada Pridevision (which is the hard core sex channel) and OUTtv (more in tune with "Q") is broadcast on Shaw Cable and Star Choice (major carriers).
I don't think that any decision has been made as of yet to change any names, just to acquire Pridevision/OUTtv.
In Canada any change in ownership has to be approved by the CRTC and the station has to remain 50% Canadian content. In order to take over Pridevision/OUTtv they have to get the approval of the CRTC and that is only after the Canadian courts approve Franks offer for a buyout in order to satisfy the money that is owing to Bill Craigs ex-wife.
When Pridevision created OUTtv there were problems with their carriers who refused to carry the new product OUTtv, now they have reached an agreement (see the following)
STAR CHOICE
OUTtv is now available through Star Choice as a fully packaged, digital service in the More Movies 2 package or as a standalone service for the low price of $2.49. If you already have OUTtv, your next bill should reflect the change in price for the network. You can also request OUTtv at the new low price in any "pick n pay" package.
If you have the More Movies package already, and would like to add OUTtv to this package at no extra charge, please call your Star Choice customer service representatives at 1 866 STAR-WEB (1.866.782.7932). www.starchoice.com
SHAW CABLE
Shaw Cable subscribers can now add OUTtv to the "multi-pack extra" package for no additional cost! A new package called "Multi-Pack Extra" has been created and is available for subscribers. The package includes the current Multi Pack services plus OUTtv. Any subscriber who has this multi pack service can call Shaw Cable and at no charge, request to have OUTtv added to this package. Click here for local telephone listings for Shaw Cable.
You may also subscribe to OUTtv as part of a 2, 5 or 10 pack similar to the other Category 1 digital services and at the same retail rates. www.shaw.ca
The final outcome is anyone's guess but one thing for sure is that Frank has every intention of acquiring these companies This is of course JMHO.

I believe this as well. Frank will strike while the iron is hot. He has as much as told us this in his letter to investors. And most here should be happy with the results. My belief is this is the primary reason Frank is having a professional audit done is to provide suitors with a clean bill of health for QBID.

Right! The same bank that bought a TV Studio!
If everything U say is true then that same inviible bank is willing to pay U & me $60,000.oo USDs in less than 2 years for every 2 grand we spend on QBID today.
That's right! If what U say is accurate that's worst the worst possibility I can come up with. It actually could be much better. But you know this! That's why you're here!

Please do not buy or sell on anything I write!
Having said that,,,,
Consider this!
The bad news first!
Lets take a look at what some would see as worst case scenario. Lets say we see a published audit with 20 or even 25 billion shares out there. I for one am almost sure that's a very high guess. But for the sake of argument lets say it's 25 billion.
Buy next year the games get coverage, we don't even show a profit yet but revenues will have spiked from the games & a modest 100,000 subscriptions which will be growing at a respectable pace. If that holds up QBID will have already surpassed the value of BET when it was sold. Say Frank lets this thing go at 3 billion dollars.
Three billion dollars makes 25 billion shares worth .12 a share!
What if the audit is really bad, 50 billion shares? You're still looking at SIX CENTS A SHARE! I can't speak for anyone else here but if I'm getting paid SIXTY THOUSAND DOLLARS for every two grand I plunk down today I won't cry for any more than a minute.
Now for the good news!
Lets say the audit shows 10 billion shares outstanding (which I still believe is a high estimate) & everything else I said still holds up. First thing I can tell you, if that's the case, frank will not be letting this go for three billion. But say he does. Now we're looking at a FLAT VALUE OF THIRTYTRHEE CENTS A SHARE!
I'm not done!
The reason Frank is having a professional audit done is to provide suitors with a clean bill of health for QBID. Moving to another exchange will be a fringe benefit that will make the product shine a little more.
Remember the PR about reducing its Tradable Stock by Fifty-Three Percent?
"We converted QBID shares into preferred stock, eliminating fifty-three percent of the tradable outstanding shares. We are confident this will strengthen the demand for our stock, and dry up the supply of trading shares that we feel are being manipulated in the market," said Olsen. "Converting our common stock into preferred stock will allow us to retain voting rights, but will also squeeze out the large short position in the stock. Q Television will continue to be as aggressive as possible, and do everything necessary to ensure our shareholders are treated fairly." .....................................................................
This isn't about manipulation! Frank doesn't give a $h!t about MMs. Well maybe a little bit but this was about polishing the product.
Frank's not trying to take 53% of three billion dollars. His major concern was absolute control over his company. Frank will be more than happy with a couple hundred million bucks. Again, this was another move not to scare off potential suiters. Hold that thought!
Personally I like Frank having complete control. Let's just pretend that that Frank, you know, the same Frank that has already sold a profitable media enterprise to Sumner Redstone. Lets just pretend he really wants this thing to be sold & actually kept the share count at or around 4 billion outstanding or less & lets pretend we're even close to actually reporting a profit by the end of the second quarter.
He will sell! He will sell while he has the attention of major players! And it will not be for three billion dollars! Now you're looking at a bare minimum of 5 billion dollars Maybe as much as 7 billion. If QBID actually showing a profit & we're getting international attention in 40 countries you could even make an argument for,,,,use your imagination!!!!
The hell with it! I'll stay with 5 billion dollars. Factor in Frank's 53% controlling interest which has now been reduced to a handfull of super voting shares & we're starting to see the big picture.
FIVE BILLION DOLLARS & FOUR BILLION SHARES!
This will not come as a huge surprise to me because Genuine Broadcasting National TV Networks do not trade for less than a dollar a share.
I've said it many times. I will not begin to liquidate my core position until I see $1.25 a share!
Hanky panky is possible in any business, large or small, but let’s look at it from another side again. The audit is a very large item for Frank to get out of the way. Based on what everyone is agreeing upon is that it is inevitable that Q will be sold as well. Now, Frank is no dummy. He has sold a few stations and sounds like for a tidy sum at that. I think if anything he is going to try keeping business as clean as possible to ensure a quick clean sale. He has busted his carcass for I think this is the 6th year to make this work and now throw it away? Some how I don’t think so but that is my opinion. Also if he is trying to move onto another exchange where the rules are much tougher, then why risk a stupid if not illegal move? And for what?
Frank is getting old and wants Q listed as a legacy in his name. I think we will all be generally safe until the sale. At that point we would have to re-evaluate our positions and safety risk. I am interested in any ones comments about the above topic except U4 and the goon squad.

August 15, 2005 Icahn Wants Time Warner to Shed Cable Unit By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Filed at 9:57 a.m. ET
NEW YORK (AP) -- Financier Carl Icahn disclosed Monday that he and a group of investors will press Time Warner Inc. to shed its cable TV unit and embark on an aggressive buyback of $20 billion of its own shares.
Icahn, who is known for taking stakes in companies and agitating for strategic changes, said he and several other investors have amassed more than 120 million shares of Time Warner, or about 2.6 percent of the giant media conglomerate, which owns CNN, HBO, Warner Bros. and the country's second-largest cable TV provider.
Earlier this month Time Warner said it planned to repurchase $3 billion of its own shares over the next two years in a bid to raise the company's sagging stock price, but Icahn and his partners believe Time Warner can afford much more dramatic steps to boost shares.
Icahn said in a statement Monday that while he felt Time Warner has done a ''commendable job'' managing each of its businesses and announced steps to increase shareholder value, ''it has not moved quickly enough and it has not proposed measures which would enhance values to the degree necessary to realize the inherent value'' of its assets.
Icahn said he believed the separation of the cable unit as well as an immediate repurchase of $20 billion in Time Warner shares would push up the price of the stock to a level that reflected its fair value.
Icahn said he had contacted Time Warner's chief executive, Dick Parsons, and planned to meet with him this week to discuss his views.
''Our board and our management are committed to creating long-term value for all shareholders, and we have been on a course that demonstrates that commitment,'' Time Warner spokeswoman Mia Carbonell said.
Time Warner has already said it intends to spin off part of its cable company to shareholders as part of a three-way deal with Comcast Corp., the leading cable company, to acquire the assets of the bankrupt cable provider Adelphia Communications Corp.
Shares of Time Warner rose 17 cents to $18.41 in morning trading on the New York Stock Exchange.
