QBIDs contract with T-W is basically of no value to T-W until TTN can get its signal up. At that juncture, T-W is just a conduit who will receive money from its subsidiaries and affiliates who choose to take that signal.
The contract simply provides a vehicle for T-W's subsidiary distributors to obtain and provide the TTN channel to their subscribers. First the subscribers have to request the programming from their cable/sat source in sufficient numbers to justify carrying it. Then the advertising has to be sold. Some time after profitable revenue is realized - then T-W itself might sit up and take notice.
I equate the situation to one of Service Master having a national contract with Ford, but the actual work takes servicing of the Ford dealers at the local level. After a multitude of Ford delears start having successful relationships with Service Master Ford HQ might consider letting them clean production plants and/or the HQ.
It's not a guarantee, it will take time, and QBID is going to have to earn it with hard quality work (...a foreign concept to Fwankie, IMHO ).
No launch - no money, no money - no expansion; "..............WHERE'S THE BEEF................"?!?
