smoke2038... are you requesting that we delete post #97085 ??


Why do you want it deleted?

[diplomatic]

I don't know if it is so much what they know about qbid as it is of what they know about hereTV and LOGO. Don't those to simply have more money behind them, big backers ...

Sorry to say smoke2038; BUT even I must 100% agree with your post.
what I can not understand is WHY?? did frank pay some $3 Million dollars up front to air the 2006 Gay Games if?? he knew in advance that he would NEVER, EVER ger even one MAJOR Satellite provider to sign on with QBID. ?? Makes you wonder ????

You guys see a problem with this picture?

1)LOGO has signed deals with cable carriers RCN (Starpower), Adelphia, and Time Warner." LOGO has accomplished so much in so little time with very little to no advertisements. Viacom's ceo accomplished all of this in under 12 months and LOGO will be launching june 30th to 30 million homes.

2)Here Tv! is available in 30 million homes, soon to be 40 million homes as this news article states. Here Tv! accomplished all of this within about 3 years, despite having poor programming and can be viewed only 12 hours a day.

3)QTV is in 3 RCN cities, despite alot of paid advertisement and tons of exposure. after years, QTV still cant seem to pick up any additional RCN cities other than the 3 cities, but LOGO signing with RCN, i think explains why QTV cant get any additional RCN cites. frank olsen has had 6 years to air QTV nationwide and still cant get more than 3 cities after 6 years, while the competition is having no problem signing nationwide carriers in very little time. doesnt that tell you the cable carriers and satelite providers know something about QBID we dont? there is a reason they are choosing to sign with the competetion instead of QBID. right now the only additional coverage QTV can get is infomercials on Oxygen network and POD, which QTV has to pay for a time slot to show thier programming. starting out QTV was the only gay network, 6 years later, they are still struggling to survive, with the competetion signing with all the cable and satelite carriers. you cant say the carriers just arent accepting a gay network at this time, because thats not true. RCN (Starpower), Adelphia, Time Warner, Direct TV, and Dish Network have proved they have no problem with a gay network by signing with LOGO and Here Tv so, whats keeping them from signing with QTV? what do they know about QBID that prevents them from signing with QTV?

to the mod that deletes my posts, i will repost this message if you delete it.
