Xpanded in contrast is a existing babe channel operator with years of experience, all they have done is move channel slots and now use the Playboy brand name for 1 channel, so you can't really compare (imo) Xpanded taking over the Playboy TV Chat brand name to when the Barry's first launched their 40+ channel .
Also you do realise that the company behind Xpanded has a ever decreasing net worth and increasing large liability's ? info here http://companycheck.co.uk/company/04247285/TXT-ME-TV-LIMITED/company-summary
So if a brand new channel can grow and produce enough of a quality TV channel, what makes you think an already established business with a track record of improvement of their various services won't be able to do likewise?
Also, the financials don't tell us much - when you read the document it is pretty vague. Liabilities going up has put the net worth down, but unless it is clarified what those liabilities actually are (or whether they are actual existing liabilities and not potential liabilities) it is impossible to say if this is a company in financial trouble or not.

If they can afford to sign up the likes of Tori, Lacey, Amanda, Jessica, Priya and possibly other big name babes. then surely then can afford to spend money on better sets, a better quality webstream and some phones instead of using those tacky headsets. im not expecting great things right away but there needs to be an improvement
RE: Xpanded tv - General Chat & Discussion - Danzig - 04-07-2015 01:35
I would take financial reports with a pinch of salt. They seem to have plenty of money for expensive Freeview licenses year after year and still charge 60p per minute so money is coming from somewhere to keep this thing afloat.

They can't be potless surely?

I notice the FV feed is from #914, showing the old set and the secondary screen... a bit odd. That said, the babes there don't seem to have to rotate all the time, and sometimes get solo spots, which is preferable to the previous form.
Silver linings & all that

I have no idea if Xpanded can grow and produce enough of a quality TV channel, i didn't say they can't, or that they can, just like any other channel, they can grow, shrink or stay the same, RLC isn't a good example, because as for now they have left TV altogether
.
Anyway, there seems to be a bit of a change of tack at Xpanded towers, Xpanded has recently changed a few things, they have more than doubled the phone call prices on 1 channel, for now they only have 1 cheaper call price channel, not long ago they had 3 Sky cheaper call price babe channel slots.
The company behind Xpanded has recently been reducing and giving up channel slots, they have given up 2 Sky channel slots, these include their Psychic channel and their 3rd Xpanded channel slot (cruzr TV), they have also given up their second freeview licence and their Cruzr TV licence, info here http://licensing.ofcom.org.uk/tv-broadcast-licences/updates/052015
They now hold the least number of TV channel slot licences that have have done for quite a while, and Xpanded have also reduced the freeview broadcast hours .

They may not be on very high wages. The channels have the power now as there are more girls than channels looking for work.

There is nothing to suggest the streaming video quality won't improve in time. If the channels they now operate are profitable this could be re-invested and help the business grow and improve as it has done steadily over the past 10 years.
Give it time.
What an articulate and well-considered post. I hope you are right because a) it would be a good thing for the babeshows and b) it wouldn't mean this lengthy post didn't waste your time!

Belle Fatale has just finished her first day shift. Definitely live this time, she tweeted that she was on.
