forward-looking statements: our substantial competition, which is
likely to increase over time; our ability to attract or increase
the number of subscribers, which is uncertain; our ability to

decline in the effectiveness of our extensive marketing efforts;

with FCC requirements; modifications to our business plan; our
indebtedness; damage to our studios, networks or other facilities
as a result of terrorism or natural catastrophes; our principal
stockholder has significant influence over our affairs and over
actions requiring stockholder approval and its interests may differ
from interests of other holders of our common stock; impairment of
our business by third-party intellectual property rights; and
changes to our dividend policies which could occur at any time.
Additional factors that could cause our results to differ
