The network of channels is free to carriers and will be advertising supported.[1] Quad channels are expecting to run in high definition the classic shows and have cross promoting roadblock at the top of the hour indicating the show up next on all four. The company is in discussion with the syndication arms of TV studios CBS Television Distribution, Sony Pictures Television, 20th Television, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, NBC, Disney–ABC Domestic Television, Warner Bros.
