Bang. Crash. Boom
Started the day with news of Aussie music distie Creative Vibes shutting down, then Real Groovy AK survives, but now more gloom and doom... UK indie distie Pinnacle has gone under - they distribute almost 1,000 indie labels (story at Hypebot). Dubber also has news on the demise of Entertainment UK, and the announcement by Zavvi (formerly Virgin Megastore) that they will not be taking orders for any CDs, games or DVDs. Link.
ADDED The German vinyl distributor Neuton, which worked with labels like Bpitch Control and Playhouse, reportedly announced that it was insolvent earlier this week. [side-line via TDS]
