BuzzMedia may buy Spin magazine
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 10 July 2012
US-based BuzzMedia, which publishes music websites Idolator, Stereogum and AbsolutePunk among others, is close to acquiring long-established American music magazine Spin, according to Billboard. It is thought the digital media firm could make an announcement about Spin as soon as today.
Needless to say, talk of the web publisher buying Spin has led to speculation the 27 year old music magazine, that has been boosting its online operations of late, might cease to be a print title, with some predicting the September/October edition may be the last, after which Spin would become an online-only publication.
