Prevue Channel music

I am trying to look for information about the music that was used on Prevue Guide, though I'm not sure if it would be appropriate for the article.

The songs they used in 1994 were "Chase the Clouds Away" and "In the Bag" from Killer Tracks Production Music. I found that on a YouTube comment page and confirmed it by visiting the Killer Tracks site and listening to the songs.

The song I liked best was from 1993, when they moved to the blue grid, but I can't find anyone anywhere who knows the name of it or who wrote it.

If anyone has any other information, add it here. Again, it's probably not something that should go in the article, but it's interesting for those of us who remember it from back in the day. -Kcowolf 08:52, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:TV Guide Interactive.jpg

Image:TV Guide Interactive.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Added fair use rationale, then removed this image from TV Guide Network article. Although TV Guide Interactive is produced by the same company as TV Guide Network, it really isn't the same product. Meanwhile, Wikipedia's electronic program guide article (which addresses interactive program guides as well) had not even a single visual illustration of an IPG. So, I moved this image there. (The TV Guide Network article links to the electronic program guide article, anyway.) Codeslinger2010 (talk) 21:15, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

TV Guide Interactive is NOT produced by the same company as the TV Guide Network... In fact, the product is not called TV Guide Interactive anymore, it is called i-Guide and is owned by Rovi, while the TV Guide Network is owned by Lionsgate. Rovi sold it a year or so ago, read the Wikipedia article ;)

Gallery

I think the gallery of screenshots of the TV Guide Network should be included. It shows the history and evolution of said channel from its beginning as a text-only service to the full-scale entertainment-oriented channel it is today. These changes are already described in the article in prose, but it doesn't give the same effect or show the full extent of the changes like the screenshots do. I do understand that Wikipedia has a strict fair use policy, and I do currently agree that a simple gallery of logos does not belong on this site. However, as I described above, this is different. —69.151.247.10 (talk) 20:36, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

A gallery of non-free images is unacceptable, really, and so is that many non-free images in a single article. I would not be opposed to images displaying the main points of evolution (and I am meaning 2 or 3 images) alongside the text, providing the text does discuss the contents of those images.
