I think Penton is making sure they stay healthy buy closing some publications down that are not making it. I have no fear for System i News at this point. The subscription folks are really not any different than any of the other magazines I get so I'm not sure that's an indicator.

Is there anyone with an insight into the health of Penton Media? I
developed concern about their financial health when they sent me a
renewal notice for System i News about 8 months before it was due. A
search for news about Penton shows they folded two of their magazines
this month. While one item doesn't necessarily lead to another, I'd
like to be a bit more certain that I get the magazine I pay for. I was
burned by the other magazine going bankrupt and not repaying their
subscribers and would prefer to not have it happen again.
