Diamond To Close Digital Storefront Program

Less than two years after launch, Diamond Comic Distributors is to close Diamond Digital, its digital comics storefront solution created in partnership with iVerse Media. The closure was announced to retailers via email last week, with the reason given being that “18 months after its launch, results indicate that Diamond Digital has not gained enough traction in the marketplace to continue.”

Got to say: I really thought this would be a bigger deal than it turned out to be.
