looks like qurious is out of jail
and lucky should be coming out soon too. Anybody waiting at the gates for him? yes it's rather quiet. Even though we already knew the 22 was off the table. I am getting nervous myself because ak promised us an update this week, and he sounded really adamant about it. I know a lot of people here were extremely happy that ak addressed the masses. Darth even insinuated that I was probably wanting to take back my posts, and apologies to the board, and ak. Even though Darth comes on here and lies to the board. I think retail is extremely blind, and desperate to believe this house of card may not be on it's last legs. To me the blog was sign of desperation. Darth said this about the so called bashers ""they are making a last ditch effort to plead their case...with nothing to support their distorted and convoluted theories...they feel compelled to give it one last attempt in hopes of securing someones sympathetic ear." To me it sounds like he was addressing ak's blog. i hope funding gets secured this week, other wise things could get ugly. We've had the labels for almost a year, yet still no launch. He was also adamant about reiterating what a great advertising crew and advertising model he has. I almost had the feeling he was trying to convince himself, and us of something he is not too sure of anymore. I'm sure he has worked his as$ of to get this off the ground. I give him credit for that. But the model is unproven, and until it hits the market with proper advertising, it's just an idea. I really hope for once, Ak surprises us pleasantly. Anybody else getting worried?
I wouldn't worry about it
I heard some rumors of good things in the pipeline. This stock has a tendency of dropping after every run. We'll just have to wait for the next one. Not sure where all the paper is coming from. They had plenty of time to sell above .12
thoughts on funding this week?
Ak clearly expressed we would be in the know this week. Darth are you worried, or is it in the bag? What's everyones' thoughts? Looking good? Wish I could make it to harry's vegas party. At least he's going with or without us. A success for qtrax nonetheless. I'm sure harry will rub up to a few big wig vegas players in the bathroom, and let them know qtrax is going to be the next kfc of digital music. By the way , i noticed our resident wiki genius lucky blues is in jail. Was he exposing his friendly duo on the board again? Lucky, I'm sure the other guys in jail will appreciate your' package. Go with god?
that's harry
dejected one in the front
big blocks going through
200, 400, and 500 k lots at .026. You would almost think we were launching tomorrow. Almost
thanks for the post
I can totally see you dancing to this, uk raver styles
thanks snx
I'm liking the tug of war today. Sellers want want top penny, buyers want to pay cheap. Decent volume, PPS looking very indecisive.
defuser you are a simpleton
without a fact to back you up. There is no mention of a fifth label on Ak's blog, nor a mention that a 5th label was needed to target a market audience before launching. I made that up, and you quoted my idea as if it came from the blog. Before calling me a loser, why don't you reread the blog, and show me where you got this idea from? I bet you are too much of a simpleton to pull that off. Next week will be very big. That's all that matters. I am hoping for a win. But after rereading that blog many times, my intuition says 25% chance we get funding. Hopefully we have a 50% chance. The fun starts tomorrow as we see how the market reacts to these very exciting times.
Defuser
I am embarrassed to say, you are quoting my post. Not Ak's blog. I can't believe you made the mistake. I was making fun of darths' post, him claiming there would be a delay because of a fifth label, and I jokingly added it was because our' target audience was demanding it. Unbelievable, and you were telling me to reread the blog, and that I should do my own DD? Also, the date of august was suggested here by darth. AK said next week we will know if funding is secured, and if so he will fix a launch date. No funding no launch date. August as a deadline is only if we get the funding. And funding news is next week. The 22nd as launch date is already off the table, for those not keeping up. The pressure is on huge now for Ak to either get the funding, or update us that he didn't. It's a whole new ball game here. There is some serious accountability going on. I highly doubt it was Ak who decided to reach out to us. Investors must be putting pressure on him big time. And now he has 5 buissness days to deliver. Get ready for a the biggest week in qtrax history.
no prob
I will chill out. Speaking of that wayne Rosso article, I still see the Qtrax launch comment. What do you guys think of the model they are proposing?
that wasn't "news" darth
that was AK writing on a blog. That by no means qualifies as news. From what everyone is saying, Ak can't afford to put out news. The next update is where the fun begins. NEXT WEEK!
you guys are great at avoiding questions
says something about you.
let's strip this down to the bone, and avoid all the dressings. Funding is not in the bank. CAN ANY OF YOU DENY THIS? Everything that gets said on this board is here-say until next weeks funding confirmation. Strike three on the launch chart if we miss the 22nd. Launch date will be set back again. Last minute, or too late? We'll soon find out. I am hoping for 10 cents this year. I got quite a few people into this deal, and it's not sitting too well with me anymore. The only thing people here should be concerned with is next weeks update. If we get the funding to launch, we can proceed from there. If you think we will blow up over night you are wrong. We have built our' reputation up from the ashes through baby steps. Not from glamorous misdeeds. Baby steps is what we can accomplish. If any of you think rome will be built in a day, then maybe rome will never get built.
defuser, I'm sure what you do is not some thing you would want to share. Otherwise you would have shared it. I hope you were a winner.
I hope you weren't referring to the qtrax team
"they are making a last ditch effort to plead their case...with nothing to support their distorted and convoluted theories...they feel compelled to give it one last attempt in hopes of securing someones sympathetic ear."
I hope this isn't a case of "a star shines brightest before it fades". My friend JD who I got into blln, said that after reading the blog.
sorry , but you are wrong.
I have not twisted anything. It's too bad you can't specify what your' problem was. Instead you have avoided the issue. Did you catch the part about AK calling us wretched readers? He claims he has been transparent. But he hasn't been, that's why this blog was supposed to justify everything. The smartest people on this board have not been posting. I will wait to hear from the more intelligent posters on this board before passing further judgement on the situation. Defuser, I'm sorry to say this, but your' desire to belittle my quest for truth, confirms your' buissness man mentality. Lying is part of your' day to day. Talk to me about details and I'll know you are not just another wannabe money grubber.
which part am I way off on?
please share
I know you'll be selling some
I think everyone should have been doing that to some extent. If you watch a stock go up and down over the years you never make any money. Launching does not guarantee a home run, not by a long shot. Investor confidence is not strong, except for those that get week kneed the moment Ak sounds transparent for once in his life to his blln share holders at large. Regardless, a launch is the beginning for all of us who want to one day recover our losses here, or maybe even make some cash on blln. Ak thinks his model is kick a$$, and if and when he has tens of millions of users, it may prove to be a financial success. If the model is good, investors will come. Until the model proves itself, which means at a minimum a launch, I don't think the investment community is going to flock here. I think fridays bump in volume at eod was because this was getting touted pre AK blog. If the volume continues next week, and the PPS starts skidding up to .037, then I'll think something is going on, and we may have secured funding. But I think you are right, a lot of anxious people are not so sure of Ak and his model, and there could be a lot of resistance. What do you think about the model, I already know how you feel about Ak
Mocho, what's your' thoughts?
you seem to be one of the few unbiased posters here. Would be good to hear your' opinions. People seem to forget you've stayed positive through the thick and thin, and only of the past 6 months started asking pressing questions.
Re:The money is there, the pieces are in place..
let's not put words into Ak's mouth. The bad side : the money promised is "almost "
sufficient to do everything they need to do. It's impossible to know how much money they need to do what, but it is clear it may not be enough to do everything they need to do. Let's hope it;s enough for a 7 country launch. Ak is giving us warning that the money is not in the bank, but at least he wants to keep us n the loop. The good side : "These people have previously delivered. And delivered. " Whoever is promising money now, has delivered in the past. So at least the odds are with us that the backer has kept his promise in the past. We are not out of the gates yet. It's all fine an dandy that AK has eloquently addressed everyones thoughts, but bottom line is the situation has not altogether changed. Next week will determine whether a launch date can be fixed, which will be determined by whether or not the backer keeps their' promise. I don't want to sound like a sour puss, but it is well known that one of the major problems with funding in the past is money has been promised but falls through at the last second. He hints at it here " Because even if you add plenty of extra time to account for the unexpected, you can never accommodate a massive delay or a completely broken promise."
I think in some ways he is talking directly to the backer, and saying you have done good in the past, but please, please , please come through for us again.
It's true, I love lobster
hopefully we'll all be eating lobster in vegas. Not a moment too soon. Let's start planning who's bunking with who.
haha darth, good call this time
great effort from the ceo. What a story, and not a second too late. New launch date coming up soon.
yes indeed
will they get us out of the gates on time?
re:GOOGLE OF THE MUSIC INDUSTRY
If this was going to be as big as google, why has no one stepped up to the plate and taken us out of the gates? You can either buy into this dream, or stay on the sidelines and wait until financing is secured before piling your' cash and confidence in Ak and team. Ak show us the money and give us a launch. strike 3 coming up.
who are you referring too?
could you explain
what do you mean by "hopefully this update will calm much of the rumors and speculation regarding the direction and game plan for qtrax" ? I haven't really heard any rumors or speculation on qtraxs' game plan. We are trying to follow along with their' game plan. They tell us the plan, we follow it. The only thing we can speculate on , is why it's not actually going according to plan. I highly doubt the next update will out frontally tell us the reasons why things aren't going to plan. But if they did maybe it would sound a bit like this : ' Sorry guys, we didn't get funding in june, but keep your' chins up, a lot of big eyes are on this play. As far as the blog, that actually was a joke. We hope none of you took it seriously. We are still expecting to start reporting our' audited accounts this month, so that should be exciting for everyone, and a good boost for moral. As far as the launch on the 22nd, some of you may have heard, we have aquired a fifth label, and we at qtrax are excited beyond belief. After realizing that our' target audience was asking for a 5th label, we knew we couldn't launch without it. That's why we at qtrax are proud to say we will never put a product on the market before all our' audiences' needs are met. Anyways guys, I just got back into town. Feels great. Gonna take the girlfriend out for lobster, but I'll tweeter you guys from my I-phone. Fear not, this next update is gospel."
My point is I see a tax loss coming up
It's the pinkies after all, no reason to think this wasn't just another 1 in 100 gamble. At least I'm willing to admit that our' pinky has proven to be a big joke. In the future, I suggest everyone here stay away from pinkies. We all apparently knew what risk we were taking (would say TC) , and now we are feeling the wrath. Bring on the shareholder update. I can't wait to have a huge laugh. I'll let you guys cry with joy.
how do you calculate significant profits?
seems like the subscribe models are garnering all the attention. As much as I thought the demise of SF was a good thing, I obviously failed to recognize that investors may not see the major differences between SF and Qtrax, they may just see they are both ad revenue based. Can someone explain the major differences between spotify and qtrax? I know you guys are trying to see the good case scenario, which is fine. As far as darths' "I believe AK's update will answer most of your' questions and put many fears to rest. " I would have to say the same was said about the previous update. It was supposed to have solved all our' inquiries. And I think it's getting harder and harder not to admit this carrot game is getting a little played out. We'll see how they spin the next one, because it's probably going to be even juicier. There's going to be a new round of promises. In the past they have said the revenue for the qtrax ad model would be supplemented with merchandise, ticket sales etc. To me this doesn't sound like the revenue model is really so sure of itself. In the past I asked Go-Q how the revenue model worked. How would the cash ever trickle down to the musicians? It was not of interest to him. The way I see it, is most of us here who stuck around have given up on some crazy PPS blast off just based on potential. We've realized that at a minimum the service needs to be up and running, and by proving through example, we can start to understand the magnitude of the potential. Unfortunately this task is turning out to be almost impossible. But not necessarily impossible, the next update should calm our' fears. I think there is more than meets the eye going on, and it seems you are starting to notice. Qurious, I don't mind waiting. But there are other people putting Ak up against the wall, not us. One thing I remember though, is go-q said we would be bought out long before we started showing signs of revenue. Hmm.
What if they launch, and the model doesn't generate enough revenue? Then what? That's the feeling I'm getting, and the delays will be for ever going until Ak's little buissness project fails altogether.
this is why we dropped in PPS past 2 days
great buy op
http://ih.advfn.com/p.php?pid=nmona&cb=1247689294&article=38649743&symbol=NB^GNPG
cool
market doesn't seem to think we will be launching anytime soon. Offers stacked up 3 high at .023. Will be curious to see what AK says about the launch, and if there is a delay, what his excuse will be. My biggest fear, is there have been way to many shares traded at these lower ranges, and tons of bag holders just waiting for a clean exit. Do you guys think will will ever get to .10?
haha, the pressure monger
I love it. 6 more buissness days to go. I won't be surprised if they don't launch, I will be surprised if they don't communicate on it. At least we are starting to anticipate the worst, and can think about what our' next step will be
we'll soon find out
wouldn't be the first time they said they were going to launch, and didn't. the launch is next week, but the PPS and volume are not supporting this. Not yet at least. There's a few more clues: Darth is already talking about delays, and we have not seen any funding updates. I suspect Darths' source has asked him to pad down the disappointment and steer our attention away from funding, and towards new acquisitions. He was not willing to confirm this, but his lack of negation says something. He could have said I was wrong. If they need cash to launch, and pay the labels, it doesn't make sense to me that they would be spending money else where. If they could pay the 4 labels, and launch in 6 countries I think that would be enough to start. I think if we were so sure that we would be launching next week, our PPS would not be sitting at .023. I hope they surprise us for once, because so far the update has been a let down
Why, you like carrots?
let me guess, you are fine if we don't launch on the 22nd? And you don't mind being lied to on this board?
by the way Mocho
thanks for coming to my defense. (did you get your' posting privileges back? ) I was expecting an update on your' humorist progress chart. I do agree with Darth that a 5th label is great. But I also agree with Defuser that "we don't need no stinkin' badges" .Darth, do you really think we buy this line of yours':
"I would also think with the potential of a new addition to qtrax library there could be the potential for delays with regard to the July 22 launch date....JMHO...we will see.
wtf buddy? Who put you up to that? I have a growing suspicion that you are being used to keep some semblance of order on this board. Maybe it's unconscious, but you are being used. If not, then you are ridiculous on your' own to suggest that a delay of the launch on the 22nd would be due to new label acquisitions. Acquisitions that we had not been told would cause a delay. That's not on the update. I know you aren't being naive, because you know that funding is a major issue in general. So why suggest the delay would be due to new acquisitions? That's a joke. If you want to be the leader of the dark side, you better come up with something better than that. Or get in touch with your' buddy Go-q, maybe he can save this board, while AK tries to deliver
big boys are watching
but not stepping up to the plate. Makes you wonder why? I think they are enjoying watching AK struggle, and lose credibility every time he promises but doesn't deliver.
Notice how on the update it says they will be launching on the 22nd, it doesn't say they expect to be launching.
good one Harrys (GA)
I am down quite a bit from last year. Need a healthy spike to recover losses. Cryme, no worries, I won;t cry either. I can;t believe you guys took Mocho's post seriously. Just goes to show you only believe what you want to believe. Darth, I can't believe you are already foreshadowing a delay. That's pathetic . If I read your' post correctly, you are saying we still need a lot of cash for warner, which could mean we don;t have the cash to launch, but on the good side an added label will mean more songs, and the delays will be well worth it. I don;t see how the added label would be the onus for a delay. How about we just don't have the cash? If we don't launch on the 22nd, it will mean that almost nothing on the update will have materialized. And basically since they don;t have cash to put any press releases that proves they met their' goals of a doubling of music, and added label, we'll just have to take their' word for it. That would be fine and dandy if it wasn't for the fact that they are notorious for not delivering on their' word.
now now TC
don't get your' feathers all roughed up. You know how many times people on this board have said to expect something, and it never happened? The persons who's word is important right now is AK's not ours'. I thought maybe you had something to say about the updates. Ak said we should expect the announcement of a new label on or before the 6th. But we never got an announcement of a new label, just a "mission accomplished" blurb.
cool, thanks for the explanation
Is there any advantage to getting certs for your' shares? I was never really too sure what sirrocco was going on about. I still have huge doubts this stock is going to make us any money, or even recover our' losses. I used to think the potential was there, but since have realized that those who told us to keep the faith, have left town. (no excuses Go-q, you are out of here). 13 days away from the launch, PPS is not reacting. Insiders are offering zero, because there is zero to offer. Where's tc? Hey germboy, was it your' brother predicting 3 bucks this year? Anyone notice that we've seen zero proof that anything on the update is coming true? Does anyone besides Shot, Mocho, Sirroco, Inthemix Harryschiwawa and myself, have the feeling that the $hit is about to hit the fan? Darth, better put on that seat belt. Better yet, get an umbrella.
I sincerely feel sorry for everyone here, including myself. The most we can ever claim is .09 after midem lies. Now that we have the truth, and labels on board, .025. Does that add up for any of you? Are there any intelligent people left here?
hmm
sounds like you guys are having a communication breakdown. Sirrocco you may want to work on your wording, if your' goal is to communicate. I'm not critiquing your' wording, I'm just saying your' attempt to communicate is failing.
you should have been a politician
"remember: when many were saying that AK would never get the labels signed." Sorry Darth, wrong again. There was only one person on this board saying the labels wouldn't get signed, not many. How about "he would never be able to raise the needed cash....oh well,that is now history" he still owes the labels cash, that means it is not history. Didn't AK say he was going to announce a new label on or before the 6th. let's see what happens on the 22nd. Our PPS doesn't not seem to be going up any more. Doesn't look like the updated update is getting anyone too excited. I predicted .034 before the launch, Thirsty said .048, and Darth said .06. time will tell
