Reeltime is back. Website is up and nice as always. I am amused that they are switching it on new system so quick.
Blockbuster is done. then Netflix and TVs then Hula Hope and others. If it goes like this we will be #1 and only by the end of this year in Online Video Business.
Spending of RT is low. They may survive the powerty wave and turn up some profit.
Reeltime LONG and STRONG !!!!!
Some people worked for success of Reeltime. Contracts were great !!!! Sony Disney etc. The problem was the Website was not THERE. No programmers working, it failed. Barry -NONE TECHNICAL or maybe pseudo-quasi-technical person could not understand/achieve the TECHNICAL/PROGRAMMING level of their competitors like HULU CBS NETFLIX.
They had a movie contracts ready,but website was not there. Movies search not implemented, no advertisments -cause he could go to jail for misrepresentation/failure of streams etc.
Mark....work on technical side first. You need pros to make it. People who quit Google...you need to hire.
Changes need to be made to the website everyday.(visually pleasing changes)Users will be satisfied after changes will be accumulated. Not all are renting movies. They want to see previews,pictures,short descriptions, heros, events etc.
Website should be Carnaval for Eyes not a dead poster !!!!
and IRDS 2.2 is a must !!!!!
Barry would not let it go if it wouldn't be sinking. Where is Asus the Barry supporter now ???? Nice going.....4 years no progress, waiting to the last minute to get rid of it.
New Mark may not have much time left to save the sinking boat with economy like this. BOA and Citi sinking too.
Hopefully he focus on Technical Side of the PROJECT and implement IRDS on Reeltime.com, makes a look and feel proffesional like HULU and start renting a movies.
Otherwise if he will get into financials, payments, contracts etc he will loose all the efford and money on NOT FUNCTIONING PRODUCT. It will cause him dearly.
Website MUST BE JUST LIKE HULU in order to attract the investors and bring revenues.
Proffesional Programmers must be employed and working 24hrs around the clock -uploading all improvements to the Web Site Daily, so the look can match HULU and Netflix, CNN and CBS
The biggest mistake and fault of Barry....he never wanted to improve the Website. He had no clue how it suppose to look, neither he wanted to spent money on developers.
The RT website now is just a DRAFT, unfinished, under construction skeleton. The reason for it that Barry had no Technical Resources to make any better. He hired Ciprus Consulting company to make the site, they failed, then he tried in-house/home made resource Jim/Jeff he failed too. Eventually nobody is working seriousely on it for almost 2 years (except Rhustang)In the mean time technology changed, java is hot, new graphs, new structures, new looks.
Hulu has 35 developers/programmers working on their site and they are all bussy. They have departments of people.
How many developers Mark can afford to put on the job ??? Barry had 1 and 1/2.
What happened to other Mark the billioner investor -did he went bancrupt ??? In order to finance this company you will need deep packet or just a GOOD ALLIANCE with Indian Company that would provide the programmers with contract.
The problem with new Mark I see is that he is not Technical again. The hope is though that he could understand the IMPORTANCE of THE QUALITY OF PRODUCT he HAS. IT is the REELTIME.COM website. Even as a none-technical person he can compare it with HULU and make sure that programmers are employed and constantly working on the site -making it just LIKE HULU.
If he wastes his time and efford on anything else, he will fail.
There wouldn't be COCA COLA company if it wouldn't be no tasty drink whith such name.
Product is everything now. Times have changed and nobody will be spending their money without getting precise value for it.
Mark, give up if you are not going to make the website a ONE OF A KIND Visual Experience, full of action and interaction. Give up now.
Quiet...very quiet...before the STORM !!!!
3step RECOVERY PLAN FOR RT:
1. Implement IRDS2.2 on REELTIME.COM
2. MODIFY WEBSITE so it looks and feels like HULU(proffesional)
3. Create searches(google,msn,yahoo) to most popular movie links on Reeltime.com
I just wish the new CEO can take a serious and do this, and do it fast. Without they are not going to be able to make it in this economy for much longer.
For now ...
1. website sucks -empty with download of the player that nobody likes (installation)
2. No likeable content -no short movies (like Familly Guy, Simpsons etc)
3. No incentives to be a member
4. Installation of the player sucks, most users never make trought.
I hope Mark takes this into consideration and do it. That is what I will call a new beginning for Reeltime.
I see the PPS dropping as time is running out. Technical work is a must. Good product will be valued and found. No product no business no users.
How many REAL PROGRAMMERS THEY EMPLOYING NOW ??? Mark should make them bussy while he is working on other things -waste of time is not acceptable. They should be doing changes to the website everyday, adding banners,pictures,menues etc. All they need to do is mimic the HULU and Netflix -create their own colours and post changes to website everyday. The better they look the more users will come.
Anyone notice PPS went down below 1 cent ???
Not to worry, it was intended ??? What will be if they clost the Hub Board cause the PPS is down 1c for 30 days ???
http://seekingalpha.com/article/108879-reconsidering-penny-stocks
BIG guys turn into Penny stocks: SIRI, FreddieMack,Sallie Mae,Trump,Ford,Merill and BOA soon will be there. $1 rule abolished.
Here we come RLTR .....lets go to Nasdaq and trade...the door is open.
Funny, how I am giving investment advice to myself. Guess nobody got spare money to invest in Reeltime (this time for REAL)
if we all such great shareholders....let's start buying !!!
Seems everything will be new, new CEO, new offices, new Servers, new Hosting Service, new pipeline(high speed fiber), new code, new programmers.
Let's put the money where your believes are. Every penny counts !!!!!
I have Questions:
What is the deal on GRID contract ??? How much RT needs to pay them now ???
When are we going to see increase in PPS ???
Who will be selling....who buying ???
Does Barry own a lots of RT shares ???
How many shares does the new Mark owns ???
and what that gives us that he is a crook ??? He should of been spotted 4 years ago not now. If he went unnoticed for so many YEARS -doesn't that shows that is something seriously wrong with the system we are living by ???
I have called Public Relations of Reeltime 4 years ago asking a question if The Company is worth investing - and the answer was yes. Did they know Barry back then, why was he so fine and talented/hardworker and what happend that he went so baaaaad ???
Why so many CEOs are getting away with ruining large companies, why they were not rejected/spotted long time ago, preventing losess of employee pension plans and shareholders value ????
as they say/...left hand washes the right one
or no clap with one hand
There is definitely more to that story. Where did the beef go ???
In Doubt about Reeltime BluRay quality capabilities ????
Just go to Reeltime and see trailer "DOUBT"
Video quality is extremly good....BlueRay compatabile... and let me tell you I watch a lots of Blueray movies on my 42"Samsung LCD which makes me an expert.
Once IRDS2.2 ready...we are flying fast and furious !!!!
Bev, you shining bright as always, you Reeltime Queen, you.....
There may be an job opening soon in the Reeltime's content acquisition department, that needs filling. I hope it would be second busiest dept. after finance as those checks/credit cards are going to start coming in.
You do not have to be "the CEO of the decade" to bring this company up. Reeltime has his great points and they just need to be developed/worked on for a change. Content/contracts are there, IRDS 2.2 is there, years of development are there. They possibly need some new investors/money at this point and the rest is to follow Netflix and HULU, be like them,look like them, work like them.
Hopefully no R/S will be done with shares since it would destroy our investments. New Mark have significant load of shares -that he need to protect.
I think, we as a investors should start fresh as well. Let's clean the slate with each other and pull together. News are great, since the departure of Alex we have been in the dream land/never do anything world. I am glad the guy is gone. I remember I was so dissapointed when he took over. There was a PR at that time that Reeltime purchased Grid Networks -but it seems that did not go trought and Alex was forced out -at that time Barry began his rules as interim CEO. Well, his ruls were not temporary and lasted very long time (kind of like George's B. and like his left us completly broke and ruined.)
Maybe we still going to catch up to our competitors and succeed.
Best luck of all for you longs. Still a big believer in technology-we got. Reeltime should focus on technical implementation now -working with India would do it. IRDS2.2 is a must. Besides, short but popular content (free) would bring the crowds !!!!
Still wonder, if any Reeltime secrets leak out to competitors ??? It is a bit fishy, that our down period coincise with their rise.
420k sold at 1 cent. Not a best time for Reeltime.
maybe tomorrow trading will be better
Reeltime open at 1cent Friday. Not a great news. Is the game over ????
There are some iformatiom we do not need to have, but we should demand the answers to those that were promissed:
1. Did audited financial have run into some unexpected hurdles that EL Presidente could not have forseen until the controls of the company were in his hands ???
2. Why IRDS2.2 is still not implemented on Reeltime.com ??/ Is it even working ?? Do you have enough resources to go trought ????
Time to be responsible !!!!
Yes, something is really wrong. Where are the financials ??/ Too many shares sold on the open market lately ??? Why the PPS went down so much ??? Is the company still in business ??/ Where is IRDS2.2 ??/
Reeltime should be sold then. If the buyer will pay premium to the present PPS I am willing to get rid of this investment.
I would say shareholders should pressure present managment to sell the company. They do not make any progress at all and promises...promises. What happened to other Mark the billionare ???? is he out ????
3cents per share paid to investors will be fine.
ictn .0026 ??? It is already bancrupt company. No penny stock ever recovered from 0.00 teritory. Job well done Mr. Barry. Is this same fate with Reeltime ????
Pretty close now trading at 1cent for over a 5 months.
What happened to 5 years of making Reeltime website ????
Still looks unusable.....was it intended ????
IRDS2.2 where are you ???/
Party time is over.....time to pay back/deliver
They made a bundle on us !!!!!
and now they are at 1cent -the inception price ???? Does this mean no progress was made over last 5 years ???
Smells like another executive scam !!!
http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/01/30/executive.pay/index.html
WHEN IS THE IRDS2.2 WEBSITE GOING To be ready Reeltime ?????
March ??
JUNE ????
2010 ????
Common. We need to test under thousends of simultanious plays !!
Be ready for big load.
reeltime -NO PROGRESS for years company
WEBSITE is a junk, unfinished, no IRDS2.2, no comercials
JUST compare Netflix or HULU to see the difference.
http://www.hulu.com/
When is it going to be finished ????? Never ???
When do they going to be open for business ??? Never or they already are ???
Do not tell me that the website they have it is all they can deliver. IT is a half done, unfinished...unusable. Nobody with the right mind would go trough the install of their player (that doesn't work),restart required, install halts whole computer for 10 min to create the video que of 2GB. Installation totally sucks, no wonder nobody go trough to be a member. REeltime has zero users -due to their player installation sucks + boring content + website unfinished, unprofessional looking.
Why they do not care to fix it ???? So many years passed ....they could of have quite a big customer base.
They are total waste of time.
Who is the Reeltime President now ???? we need to put him to the brig for fals promisess and lies.
what happened to the deals being signed in december? what happened to audits? its almost february!
Are we being fooled ???? What is going on ??? Where is the president of Reeltime ??? and who is it ????
Why the audited financials taken this long?
Where is the IRDS 2.2 Website ????
Why stock is so DOWN ????
1c=worthless
When incorporating a company you get initial offering 100k shares at 1cent. Anyone can start new company and do this same as REELTIME.
Are we being fooled ????
No 90 days. Mark was there for the last 9 months. He had enough time to come up with business plan. Days are counted as wait time. I see lots of share dumping at 1-2c levels with paint at close. Seems that investors are leaving the ship.
Same Barry and his technological abilities - worked for over 5 years. The website is not ready -IRDS 2.2 NOT READY. No business links, no associations, no search, no LOOK(like HULU).
What is going on with Outsourcing to Guptas ???? Are they helping technologically yet ?? Without them we be waiting forever.
The coming new is HUUUUUUGGGGGGEE. Hopefully they announce this month. This stock is going SKY HIGH. For those who do not believe....you did not believed America can have black president, but it happened.
REELTIME GOING UP -THIS TIME FOR REAL -trading mystery solved
Some investors here used to wonder, why stock price of REELTIME have not gone UP eventhought serious buys(stock purchases) were made. Big buys as well as buy orders placed had no effect on price. Well the mystery has been solved:simply the trades were never registered neither the purchases made by OUR BROKERS. Etrade,BOA,ML have never bothered to actually place the orders eventhought the statments to their customers were sent every month showing purchased equities. READ BELOW -does this look familiar ?????

Madoff's fund may not have made a single trade
By Jason Szep
BOSTON (Reuters) - Bernie Madoff's investment fund may never have executed a single trade, industry officials say, suggesting detailed statements mailed to investors each month may have been an elaborate mirage in a $50 billion fraud.
An industry-run regulator for brokerage firms said on Thursday there was no record of Madoff's investment fund placing trades through his brokerage operation.
That means Madoff either placed trades through other brokerage firms, a move industry officials consider unlikely, or he was not executing trades at all.
Possibly Rhustang is gone. He would fix that if he was there.
To be or not to be......Reeltime came to the halting point, time to answer this question for Barry. Does he has what it takes to succeed ??? Bad economy for years to come will separate the winners from loosers, strong from weak, truth from a lie. The early days of January will show.
Still have some optimistic ideas about this investment in RLTR. If all PRs were true, we should see the rise of REELTIME in 2009, if not they will close the business in January.
Reeltime REAL COMPETITOR
danger in the article:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7790276.stm
Considering Internet Delivery is private in US they will not grow and even Netflix will go to extinction when cable companies will start shrinking bandwidth on customers. ATT and other cell companies are charging huge prices for use of bandwidth, as they lost the telephone industry they moved to content control, access control of customers. They are cheap and will not provide the bandwidth for free. End of movie streaming in US is coming.
The news are real. Yes, it is hard to believe at this point.
It was already obvious that Reeltime can't do it by themselves. They are sitting on the mountain of Gold unable to escavate ((no machines, no tools,no power(money)) They are amazing they lasted so long doing what they could. It is time to HAND over the project to Jagran.
Analyze this:
“Reeltime is taking it’s existing relationships with US companies and
creating it’s first major advertising-driven site,” says Barry
Henthorn, ReelTime’s CEO. Sukirti Gupta, CEO of MMO Online, part of Jagran, accompanied
Henthorn to Cannes to announce the venture.
Investors need to learn to distinguish true hope from false, and that is not easy considering they try to get as much value they could with such small team.
THE NEW WEBSITE IT IS GOING TO BLOW YOUR MIND !!! Will belong to JAGRAN and made by them-using techno from Reeltime. P2P has huge potentials in India and China where bandwith is free and given by goverments to it's citizens (infrastructure)
Considering is private in US they will not grow and even Netflix will go to extinction when cable companies will start shrinking bandwidth on customers. ATT and other cell companies are charging huge prices for use of bandwidth, as they lost the telephone industry they moved to content control, access control of customers. They are cheap and will not provide the bandwidth for free. End of movie streaming in US is coming.
That is the news that will take us out of the misery. There is nothing else just waiting for this to happen/develop. NEW WEBSITE should be created shortly/technology fixed, commercial site with Jagran logo, available to millions of users. Hopefully they will not give up on Reeltime and brake the contractual agreements. Till then nothing will be new, same o same, no customers-no need to fix anything. (kind of make sense to wait for REAL PROS to implement the idea)
reeltime was too small to be able to do such large project as Streaming Videos to millions. They need backing and Jagran can help and take it's idea to the sky.
Jagran Prakashan Group, one of the largest publishing groups in India,
has formalized its’ joint venture with ReelTime Rentals, which
provides video streaming technology for partners such as Sony, Disney
and Miramax.
Jagran Reeltime will see the US company’s technology supply local and
international video content through a Hindi Language portal. Jagran,
which publishes the world’s most widely read daily newspaper, Dainik
Jagran, will help identify relevant content and provide an audience.
ReelTime’s technology promises to facilitate delivery of DVD-quality
content in a large country where high speed internet remains patchy.
“Reeltime is taking it’s existing relationships with US companies and
creating it’s first major advertising-driven site,” says Barry
Henthorn, ReelTime’s CEO.
Sukirti Gupta, CEO of MMO Online, part of Jagran, accompanied
Henthorn to Cannes to announce the venture. “Jagran has a huge client
base which is demanding new media,” Gupta said. Realtime currently
offers over 3,500 titles from major studios, sporting events and niche
programming.
They need more developers to finish before Xmas. They need to LOOK like HULU in order to make it. Hire more people Reeltime -the technical progress is tooooooooo slooooooooow.
Surely Reeltime is moving into larger economy stocks environment that does not oppose Reeltime entry. The BIG Guys are weak.....really weak. Who would not buy a stock that cost 2 cents when investors are loosing $10 $20 or more daily from their BIG NAME INVESTMENTS PPSes.
Reeltime up to a dollar has the easiest entry to Market ever.
It is like Public Offering all over again. No resistance - straight way UP !!!!!
and again....I repeat myself...Not many shares needed to take us to 50cents.
Guys again....THIS STOCK is going TOTALLY UP. I am standing by my word. There are very few shares available (despite what some say) and needs very little buying for PPS to go up. The huge achivements are:
1. IRDS 2.2 player compatability -once implemented on Reeltime.com lots of users will be there (like never before)
2. P2P model with small video file size is a winner. Most internet providers are cable companies - and yes they will restrict the user's access to video content - in a way that you will have the limited GB available for month -paying extra for more. That will kill all competition including Netflix who's video files are huge.
3. Reeltime is Authorized distributor of Videos Online(not many companies can say that they are legal)
Reeltime needs to add to their websites more content, show better what they got already. Put more design/business links on the website. Add more user friendly options. Add Music Videos to their content.
The worst is behind ....chances for success are great. From here we should see price going up.
It was all predicted long time ago. Bad behaviour has its punishments. You felt so great BS-ING me AND others 3 years ago from the possition of economic power.Ignorant and powerfull. How about today ??? Relaying on the weakest investment of all -REELTIMe. Some could not afford to invest in Citi, Googles, Banks etc simply their PPS were too high for poor/cash strapped/living from check to check children of the lesser god. Those have chosen REELTIME as a savior, dream, reality replacement. Maybe we all get what we wished for ????
ReelMMA video works great. They should start working on putting more content there. More pictures,comercials, buttons etc. Hurry, VIDEO with IRDS 2.2 works great. Now business...business links etc. Soon comercials on TV and papers.
Same for REELTIME.COM -needs IRDS 2.2 NOW !!! They need more IT stuff programmers working. This Christmas may be GREAT !!!
Possible best time to buy the shares back is now. I may start to accumulate, starting tomorrow.
Wow !!! we are going to be rich again, very soon. This time the run will continue past .23 all the way to the DOLLARS !!
Very nice......lets go Reeltime IRDS2.2 and Trading on NASDAQ !!!
That is the best time for HEDGING investments. All the BIG Guys going down and small guys have more leverage to go up !!!
As soon as we are spotted by Hedge Found we are going TOTALLY UP>.......here we go
Asus is back. Nice. Something must be up. Lets test that new site with IRDS2.2 hurry up. The problem I see with installation is that grid connector is trying to reserve 2 GB of space on the user's hard drive by creating a file -this takes a enourmous long time on some computers. The spooling file should be small to start with -later should extend itself as movies are watched.
