'''Availability:''' Extremely Rare. Since VHS and Betamax were not popular until the mid-1980s, home recordings may be scarce. If possible, check tapes with ABC programs dating 1971-1972.

'''Legacy:''' The animation at the beginning and the music can creep some people out. Not to mention, the logo's dark. But the droning tune can be a bit groovy to a few people. It's also not surprising why it's never used, as the logo doesn't fit for the company. It's also one of the 3 logos never used by Computer Animation Industries.

'''Legacy:''' The sparkling, glowing, and shimmering effects (although primitive by modern standards) were state-of-the-art for their time, and certainly has that "disco era" feel.

'''Logo:''' We start with the letters "'''ABC''" in its characteristic trademarked font suddenly appearing on the screen. They zoom out, revealing the rest of the 2013 ABC logo. As it zooms out, slowly decelerating, the light shining on it, in a similar shade to the background of the previous logo, becomes slightly darker. When the logo fills about half of the screen, the background fades to black, with continuous glowing around the logo. The logo slowly zooms out.

'''FX/SFX:''' The zooming out, and the changing of the light. Awesome CGI by Loyalkaspar.

'''Music/Sounds:''' Same as the previous ID, but the ABC jingle is absent. This is basically the last note of the 2007-2012 ABC Entertainment logos.
