Welcome to the 'Church of the Painful Truth'.

All of the Alexa speculation could easily be put to rest if NTEK would simply release the one very important metric used to value subscriber based businesses, the quarterly SUB COUNT!
For some unknown reason, NTEK doesn't want us to know that number. nflx publishes it at the end of every Q, SIRI does too. In fact ALL legitimate companies post that metric so that the 'Street' can properly evaluate the company, its growth rate and in turn the pps. But not NTEK, noway man, uh uh, not gonna tell.
For some reason NTEK doesn't feel it's a necessary component for us to have. Why? Because it's too low or too high? The latter most certainly isn't the case. So, the next question is what are they doing about the lackluster sub count? Why isn't social media being utilized and optimized as a free or low cost advertising venue? Phil Foley's Tweet last night was great! But, is anything being done about it or was that just another dangling carrot?
Is it more important for DW to put on a weekly dog and pony show to appease us with empty answers to important questions? He can only dig so deep into his bag of tricks without having real answers, answers that only the company can provide. People give him a hard time but the real question is, 'why isn't NTEK providing the tools for him to do his job effectively'? Here's my answer, "I dunno, stupid is as stupid does?"
While it's nice to see the pps go up as it did yesterday, it simply isn't sustainable as we see so far today. But even if we do have several days of green, we aren't going to be fully valued until NTEK management stops fiddling and and stops looking to DW to make chicken salad out of chicken sh*t!
As of today, right now, this very moment we ARE fairly valued at almost 1/3 of a cent. Fair? Yep, fair. What you talkin' 'bout Willis? Oh, you no likey? Too bad, ALL fingers point to NTEK management for this. It has become a trust issue and until it's resolved expect more of the same.
In summation, the Alexa rankings don't mean turkey squeeze so long as NTEK continues with it's atrocious and inconsistent reporting.
So while the truth may be unsavory and painful NTEK has the power to change it all. The question is, Will they?
