Check this out---> email from Media City Studios -----------------------
Q Television is on a long term rental which may end in the network purchasing Media City. Q television is responsible for financial obligations in operating the facility. ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael XXXXXXXXX To: sales*mediacitystudios.com Sent: Monday, February 20, 2006 2:06 AM Subject: The Studios
To Whom It May Concern,
I was wondering if Media City Studios are owned and operated by Q Television Network (or the network’s parent company). Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
Michael MXXXXXXXXX

Friday, August 12, 2005 Q Television Network Closes Studio Deal in Burbank, CA
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. – August 12, 2005 -- Q Television Network (OTCBB Other: QBID), the first 24/7 premium network for the gay and lesbian community, which will be celebrating its one-year anniversary on September 5th, announced today that it has purchased and closed on a revenue generating studio in Burbank, California. The studio will be renamed “Q Television Media City" and will be the center of all of Q's original programming.
Q Television Media City — when not in use filming for Q Television — will be rented out to filmmakers, television creators and entertainment executives seeking a Los Angeles studio for production. Currently the studio generates up to $400,000.00 per month in production fees.
"This turn-key facility, which has been the home of "Jeopardy” and the "Wheel of Fortune," is state of the art and will make our transition out of Dallas quite seamless,” said Frank Olsen, President, CEO and Founder of Q Television Network. “Our Partnership with Firestone has never been stronger, but our growth required us to obtain an independent studio of our own. Media City equips us with all the necessary technology and space to create, produce and shoot all of our original programs. Q Television is now extremely visible to the media universe because of our own studio in close proximity to the most famous studios in the world. We are extremely pleased with this purchase, and the added income that the studio will bring in will reduce our monthly liability by 73 percent.”
There will be an open house for all viewers and investors mid-September. An announcement on the exact date and time will be made a few weeks in advance.
About Q Television:
This 24/7 premium television network is organized to create, develop and feature television programming for the gay and lesbian community, including live & interactive content every weeknight, plus sports, information and entertainment. 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 is available on a subscription basis to those desiring to subscribe. The network is telecast 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 official network of Gay Games® VII. The network is also ad-supported.

Glad we are able to document this type of stuff. It could be useful down the road if this thing turns into a certifiable turd.

Q already bought the business: clientelle, equipment, etc. That doesn't mean they bought the buiding, too. I believe that is what she is referring to.

If you look on the Q website under press releases you will see that this is the longest period of time between PR's since they were 1st displayed on the website Sept. 17, 2004.
19 days and counting....

You pretty much have no choice but to hold David. Try to sell at .0001 and see what happens. Too many people in line in front of you trying to get out. Have been in this almost two years now and this is the bottom of the barrel.
I sure hope you are right about them coming out of this mess.
