Today I read in the scootertour.nl forum that Digidance, the company who released Scooter albums and singles in The Netherlands is bankrupt.
A internet link is here about the bankruptcy, it doesn't say much just that since 17th of March Digidance is officialy declared bankrupt.

Now I wonder one thing, what does this mean for future Scooter releases in The Netherlands?
Are they going to search for another company who releases or distribute their releases in Holland or just stop selling music here?

Hmmmm....I don't know if another company wants to release Scooter. Digidance always did, but Scooter releases didn't sell very well in The Netherlands. So I'm afraid it will be hard to find another company that wants to release Scooter.

Yes I think the same, it won't surprise me if they can't find any other company who wants to release their tracks since their releases didn't sell well. With One (AH) being the last hit here I don't see many changes for them in the future, and because of this it's hard to find a company who will release their music.

I know, that a huge amount of the netherland guys know german... (or at least a bit german)
Is it a problem for you (netherlands) to order your Scooter CDs on the german amazon?

For me it's no problem, and most of the time I drive to Germany to buy the CD myself. But I'm lucky to live near the boarder to Germany. Fans from Amsterdam or so won't get that easy to Germany. And if they don't want to pay postage, they won't be able to get the CD's easily.

Offcourse we can still buy German releases, we can even buy them on Dutch sites. It's just that Scooter cd's won't be in the cd stores anymore and won't be able to reach the Dutch charts (allthough I won't see that happen even if Digidance didn't went bankrupt). And this makes the chance for a concert here also smaller.

Very sad, maybe it is not such a big problem for the fans to get German CD's, but it was nice to collect CD's from Digidance.

It is maybe also not so good for the success from Scooter in Netherlands and concerts there aso.

You ain't stoppin' us now

Oh bad news!

Few years ago they stopped release Scooter cds in Sweden. But few months later another company took over, Warner Music. But they sell only digital releses and some albums.

I hope it will find another company that wants to release Scooter.

Join the jams!

That's bad for everyone in the Netherlands. I think Sheffield Tunes could open up a Dutch office.

AATW have so many international acts, you think they could have international offices. :?

My fear is that the future will go completly digital.

I much prefer to have a physical CD, and seeing the way the singles market has gone in the UK I wonder how much longer music will keep being released on a physical format.
