Logo descriptions byNickSplat,FMVideoFTWVIDFTLVideo courtesy of NickSplat (known as TVCraze2300 TV on YouTube)Background: According to the company's history found on DVD releases till 2004,Cine Net (later also known as Delerno Audio Visual) was initially founded in 1986, as a subsidiary of Universal Corporation, which had its base headquarters in Athens, and counterpart ones in Rome and Los Angeles. In the 1990s, Cine Net would partake in reports from companies such as MIFET, MIPCOM and AFMA, regarding audiovisual enterprises. In 1996, the company started operating a 10-year project, which would include releases of children's magazines about cartoon sketches, known as Τα Πιτσιρίκια.The company would start releasing DVDs (mostly in supermarkets) in 2001. In some of its early releases, Alfa Zita Productions would contribute as the DVD Authoring studio, while in later ones under the CARTOON DVD label, AZ Soundstudios would be the DVD Authoring studio. In releases under the JUNIOR D.V.D. label, Arcadia Entertainment would be the DVD and VCD author. Most of the company's releases, would suffer from tropes seen in other third-party companies of that kind, including illustrated artwork that's not dependent on the actual product, and sometimes makes the product look like it's copying well-known Disney films (notable examples being the Aladdin and Pinocchio releases), as well as references to compilations of episodes from animated series, as full-length movies. Also, most of the labels on the discs would mention the English title of the movie featured. The company started also making use of VCDs for further releases, in the mid-2000s. The company would receive distribution rights from others, such as Whamo Entertainment (Burbank Animation Studios films under their television formats), PorchLight Entertainment and Liberation Entertainment.The original logo for its label, CARTOON DVD, would depict a duck, which is about to break some discs cases. The logo would later change to an alien creature breaking discs with a hammer. The final logo for the label, which was re-named to JUNIOR D.V.D.in the mid-2000s, would depict Raindrop, the titular character ofRain Drop: Water Is Adventure, a series which would be released by the company on DVD, prior the label being re-named. Αnother label used for some of its releases, was Smart DVD.The company has been inactive since the mid-2010's.1st logo(2001-2003)TBA!2nd logo(2003-2005)Logo:On a white and light blue streak background, the words "Η CINENET ENTERTAINMENT" appear letter-by-letter inblue.
