HMV to close GetCloser
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 7 September 2009
Bad news for users of GetCloser.com now. Anyone? Anyone at all?
The HMV-owned social network will be shutting down at some point in the near future, just over a year after it launched. Some of its content will be moved over to the entertainment retailer’s new rewards site, Purehmv, and main website, HMV.com.
A spokesman for HMV told New Media Age: “We’ve been very pleased with how it has worked but we feel the content is more relevant for Purehmv, while other content will be used on HMV.com”.
