Part of the "sell" was also to be able to offer real time advertising information for ratings services like Nielsen. Young people are not the primary purchasers of "stuff". One needs to appeal to a viewing class with "real" purchasing power. Many of those people still watch local tv channels. I would not trust one "data paper." I've read other assessments that show that local channels are still important. But this competitive advantage is also no longer competitive, per my post a few days ago about Nielsen getting into the capture of streaming data for advertisers. There is no reason they can't put something out to satisfy shareholder concerns.

Has there been any follow up to the email they sent last week?

There is no reason to trust this management team in my opinion. Their CTO made some pretty serious allegations regarding posting of information though press releases that he claimed were not true. As I recall another poster mentioned that one deal that was touted, with Cixense, was also false...and that no such deal has occurred. Without a valid corporate update....lots of speculation at to what is actually going on, is rampant, as the numerous posts show. I am concerned at this point not only about lack of transparency but things of a more serious nature. Meanwhile, crickets from management. Clearly they aren't concerned about shareholder issues. Time for an emergency board meeting? We can do it...there are sufficient shares in the public domain.

Aren't you supposed to be beta testing a product?

I think we all need to send a letter to management asking for a board meeting. I am beginning to wonder if there is even a product at all...the lack of news is consistent with no viable product. No response at all from those that claim to have the attention of management. I ask again...where is the "big news?"

Midas, Vue TV, another example of a "lean back" experience.

This is concerning...and another pitiful beginning to the day. And another day without news. Why should anyone trust this management team to be transparent at this point. Interesting that there has been no response to questions regarding the fate of promised 'big news.' Wonder if management even pays attention to this board. Ted, if you are a tester, and others have received notice, have you contacted them to find out why you have not received anything. For over a month...as a tester I'm sure you should have a vested interest in what is going on and that your concerns should be addressed.

82,450,what are you seeing?

so....where is all the news? Does anyone know....someone posts something that they received a notice last Friday about the beta test, but then Ted is part of the testing group and he has heard nothing for a month? Something is not adding up.

If they actually released some news then this stupid stuff of hitting the bid would not be happening. Without real news, long term investors like myself will continue to sit on the sidelines. I'm not going to risk additional money, when I am already seriously under water on my investment, with a company that does not communicate its progress or plans on a regular and reasonable basis. And I'm sure I am not alone. So apparently they are initiating the beta testing? Or at least someone posted that on this site....but it needs to be verified, by a credible statement from the company...not by someone just posting on this board. Would be nice if they released some news to that effect.....and would also be great if they released a progress report on the alpha testing. In the absence of anything by way of public news...there will be no buying, no interest, no action and a pitiful stock price.

I fully agree with Midas and others and it is exactly why I have started to post even though I have been a long term investor, despite the fact that some have chosen to level criticism and questioned my right to do so. For the life of me I can't understand why a call for transparency to all shareholders is even being questioned. We are losing market opportunity as a result of over a year's worth of delays, missteps and screw ups. It is great that this management team talks to some investors, perhaps those of you who have actually received emails can share them and enlighten the rest of us.

And another one......Nielsen announced yesterday that they will start tracking ratings data from various cord cutter and live streaming services, like Netflix, Hulu. This was supposed to be a clear CCLX comparative advantage.

Another day with no news, no interest and a continued downward trend on the stock price. "Ripping past 2 cents"....is this what we are now settling for? Sorry, we don't need pep talks......we need engagement from this company's management team, period. If they can't find a way to update all shareholders with a responsible report on progress related to their product, then a shareholder's meeting is in order. I for one am concerned who is doing what in this company; they have lost their primary technical person and I have yet to see any piece of information that indicates who is providing technical input and know how. None of the key listed principals, Domich, Steinke, Jaye, are technicians. So....have they hired anyone to replace Bayliss? Who is actually developing the product? What is the marketing plan, or is a marketing plan even being developed? Is there an actual viable product and where is it in the product development cycle? Where are the analytics related to an actual product that show competitive market advantage? What steps are being taken to raise capital beyond what we as shareholders are contributing? This is not about fluff news....this is about being responsible to shareholders on the fate of this company and its products, especially in light of all the turbulence and upheaval of this past summer. We have all invested money, some more than others. The amount is immaterial. I prefer to consider my investments on the basis of fact, not innuendo and hearsay. If the company is not willing to voluntarily provide a reasonable update of its status and future plans by some means, any means, to all of its shareholders, in line with what it is able to publicly comment on at this point in time, then we as shareholders need to take action and request a shareholders meeting in order to get some answers. The time for accepting things on face value has long passed.

A shareholder's meeting is not a bit "much:, it is what every responsible company does. It has been 3 months, with no news....no results of the alpha test, whether the beta test has even started, whether they have any plans to pursue deals for local live tv with local affiliates, what steps they are taking to secure funding to keep this company viable, what a priori plans are in place to launch and market a product, assuming there is one, with the holiday season not that far away. I'm not sure why one would resist what seems to be a logical way to proceed in the absence of other regular means to update all shareholders, not only those that Investor Relations decides to speak with.

I am not sure why we as shareholders are not using our collective power and making a formal request for a shareholder's meeting. There are more than enough shares now in the public domain to request this. I have no faith in this management team to keep the shareholders responsibly informed.
