Mondo Times editors    Boulder, Colorado USA

Posted at 7:11pm on Thursday, January 14th, 2010

On January 6, 2010, Video Business announced that the magazine has ceased publication after the release of the January 4, 2010 issue:

"January 6 -- Video Business is ceasing publication this week, after 29 years of industry-leading coverage of the home entertainment business.

The Jan. 4 issue was the magazine’s last.

VB’s owner, Reed Business Information, is shuttering the magazine and its online operations, effective this week, as part of a larger, ongoing strategy to divest itself of most of its business-to-business publications in the U.S. The company also is closing MBT (Manufacturing Business Technology) and Industrial Distribution.

“I’m extremely proud of the role VB has played in the home entertainment industry, consistently breaking news, while providing important analysis and insight to our readers for almost three decades,” said Marcy Magiera, editor-in-chief and associate publisher. “Every staff member and regular contributor here is a first-class business journalist, and I will miss working with this smart, dedicated and caring group of people.”

Video Business Magazine, Two Other Reed Publications Shutting Down

Foliomag.com reported on January 6, 2010:

"Reed Business Information Wednesday said it has ceased publication of three trade titles: Video Business, Manufacturing Business Technology and Industrial Distribution. The Web sites associated with these magazines also will be shut down.

According to a post on the Video Business Web site, the shutterings are part of a “larger, ongoing strategy to divest itself of most of its business-to-business publications in the U.S.” On New Years Eve, RBI CEO John Poulin sent a memo to staffers saying the company will need to close certain titles and lay off a number of employees during the first half of 2010."
