Revenue also way behind schedule.

Not that this should be a startling surprise to anyone, but revenue is a bit behind expected schedule and when I say revenue I am talking about prospects as well. On the other hand , expenses are running well ahead of schedule even with deferred payments or no payments to management/ownership.
We all know a loss was expected out the door, but it always hurts more in reality than the business model,and the expenses on this model was really bad business.

The biggest cost is personnel and that was known before they started. As far as revenues go, I have NO idea how they could project any revenues. There is no need for any legit company to run ads on web radio. The numbers are just too small to spend any money on and if you do spend money on web radio, it can't be enough to pay the personnel costs. This amateurish group has no concept of how business works, and it's doomed to fail- just like everything else the mike has touched.
With the salaries they seemed to have given out, there is NO possiblity of this venture ever turning a profit.
Unless Hernandez is filthy rich, which I doubt (he runs an employment agency and the largest public one has $300 mil in revenue and has a net profit of $5 mil. Not a big money maker) he'll be needing financial help within 3 months.

Actually, who is running this thing? Spaceball and his collection of media consultants?

Obviously, yes, personnel is the main expense on this. Servers shouldn't be that big (and can be found inexpensively on eBay) an investment. Hell, I could make my laptop into a shoutcast server for gratis

I don't know if what you say is true but they are giving away a 42-inch TV at every remote.

And, I just won some swag just for sending in an email to Webby and Freddy. Granted, it was a fantastic email, but I was still a little surprised.

Shoutout to CSWebio, though, for the swag. I don't know what it is but it was damn considerate of them. I just hope Pappy doesn't read my thoughts on Boom Boom or I'll be afraid to open the box.

Ever seen the producers?

"Jerry , Jerry! This is the future! I can get you 40% for just $2 mill!"

"Listen Cutler, I know you are young, but for $1 mill, I can get you 30% of the webio station"

"Oprah, I know I have made fun of you in the past, but I was just kidding, for $5 million, you can get 80% of Sports Webio"

Wait. I thought that lawer guy was going to full-on advertise on the webio. Won't that alone push revenue up way past......$100/month?
