January 30, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
Henderson, NV (PR LEAP)- Margate Entertainment LLC is providing the programming for a 21 channel free internet television broadband network for TV4U.Com. The 21 Channels will encompass the range of classic and new programming from sports to Westerns.
When completed TV4U.Com will be presenting almost 5,000 different programs on a Video on Demand basis.

Margate has been providing private network services since 1973, when its predessesor company, Continental Communications was founded by cable industry pioneer Tom Ficara and John F. Bassett, a Canadian TV and Newspaper mogul.

The company provided programming for FBC, the first basic cable network, which preceeded ESPN by seven years.
Subsequently it provided private network programming for such fledgling cable networks as USA Network, College Sports Network, Nostalgia Television, Family Channel, Cable Sports Netwtork, Tavern Television, and Classic Sports Network.

Margate Entertainment LLC owns a 5,000 title sports and entertainment library and has spent 36 years amassing the library through program and company acquisitions. Over the years, the libraries of CBS Sports Spactacular, Tel Ra, Mizlou Television Network, Katz Television Network, Dumont Television Network, TVS Television Network, Nostalgia Television, The Family Channel, Allied Artists Pictures, Sports Network, Inc. and several other entities were absorbed by Margate.

In the 1970's and 80's Margate mainly provided private network services for basic cable networks. In the 1980's and 90's the company pioneered the licensed, budget line home video and serviced more than a dozen home video labels with more than 500 home video titles.

In the 1990's, Margate acquired the Colorization process that was utilized by Ted Turner and broadened the scope of colorization from black and white movies to classic TV shows, classic news footage, and classic sports events.

Today, Margate supplies private networks for internet broadband networks, stock footage for movies, home video labels, and low power TV networks.

Today, Margate is again breaking new frontiers for video, designing private networks for doctors offices, airports, airlines, mobile phones, and even for gas pump video!

"With such a large library, there's almost no application that we can't do well," explained Margate Entertainment Magazer Tom Ficara. "We are able to provide private companies with the chance to look like a network without the major expense that they might expect for such an effort."

The TV4U.Com is the largest project in the 37 years that Ficara has been supplying such services. In fact, the continuous availability of 5,000 TV show for Video on Demand is unequalled in previous TV network efforts.
