No shit... looks like i'm stuck with the monthly 10issues that arrive of mobile electronics that come to the shop :( damn, like i said it seemed like the issues kept getting smaller... and smaller...

Just as it seemed they were starting to do more hands on articles too.

edit: speaking of ME magazine... when I grabbed this months I thought it was SPL2K on the cover... sadly it wasn't.

It's a shame. The car electronics market / industry has been on the decline for the past 4 years. I disconcerting from my end to see vendors or in this case a rag close.

Yeah but for a business like yours , the internet word of mouth seems to be your best advertising method, between all the forums and ebay, I doubt you would see a real decline in your sales...no more than any other business with the economy doing what its doing...

Well I wish that was the case. Unfortunately we have done less business in 07 and 08 than we did in 06. I suppose if the consumers aren't buying has much gear either online or at a normal dealer we'll sell less accessories. You are right on the point about forums (SMD) especially. We do pick up sales, the die hard guys are still building systems so that is encouraging. I do appreciate dealing with all the SMD members. This is the best forum I've been allowed to participate with.

CA&E magazine is pulling the plug after 20 years. Someone over on DIYMA posted about it saying they talked to one of the editors and they said they were shutting down.
