Goodbye G-zine - hello MBM - Music Business Monthly is back!

Hello Music Business Monthly!

As many of you know we were heavily involved in publishing a magazine for an online retail site. As of January 31, 2010 that magazine is off of the web.

I'm very proud of what we accomplished, taking a new magazine in February of 2009 and bringing it from 25 million on the web to the 400,000's of Alexa.com.

Our work did a number of good things for the company - but there wasn't a level of seriousness from one individual so - no matter what our honest efforts - everyone suffers.

The person behind the situation didn't realize that Lincoln freed the slaves...and that the "carrot and stick" routine was not going to help his customers or his retailers (not to mention our good staff) in the long run.

But you live and learn. It's a new year. We'll let the legal department handle that and move forward into the new year with lots of new plans.
