Q Television Network Launches in Two New Time Warner Cable Divisions: Rochester and Syracuse; Linear 24/7 Gay & Lesbian Programming Available October 1

PALM SPRINGS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 29, 2005--Strengthening its presence throughout North America, Q Television Network (Pink Sheets: QBID) has announced its launch into two new Time Warner Cable divisions. The gay and lesbian community's premiere 24/7 television network will be available to viewers in Rochester and Syracuse, New York, beginning Saturday October 1, 2005. This announcement marks QTN's continued expansion throughout Time Warner Cable.

For Time Warner Cable customers in Rochester, QTN will be offered as an a la carte channel 454, available 24 hours per day, seven days per week with a complementary video on demand (VOD) option on channel 453 for all QTN subscribers. In Syracuse, Time Warner Cable customers can access QTN as a 24/7 premium offering on channel 380 and as VOD on channel 381.

“Recognizing the diversity that exists in this market with its truly unprecedented roster of creative, entertaining and high-energy live programs, Q Television meets the needs of the gay and lesbian community”

"We are delighted that Time Warner Cable has chosen to add QTN to its channel lineups in Rochester and Syracuse," said Carol Hinnant, Vice President, Affiliate Sales & Marketing. "And we're confident that gay and lesbian viewers in these areas will benefit greatly as we continue our quest to capture and deliver the voice of the GLBT community through quality live and original programming."

"Recognizing the diversity that exists in this market with its truly unprecedented roster of creative, entertaining and high-energy live programs, Q Television meets the needs of the gay and lesbian community," said Time Warner Rochester Division President Jeff Hirsch. "We look forward to a long and successful relationship."

Added Time Warner Vice President for Public Affairs Jeff Unaitis, "We have been looking for just the right blend of news and entertainment to satisfy our growing contingency of gay and lesbian viewers, who have been actively requesting such a network, and QTN offers an exciting programming package that more than answers that call."

Q Television currently offers its customers five hours of live programming daily, kicking off its morning fare with the new hit show "Brunch," which stars Honey Labrador and Scott Withers. The day ends with QTN's signature series "On Q Live," a fun-filled adventure of news, guests, sports and entertainment. QTN also offers its customers original programs such as "Q on the Move"--the first-ever travel show for the GLBT community--and "Flesh and Threads," a dance show that brings fashion and the gay beat to the dance floor.
