Alerted to this by a writer friend, so looked for some details.

I'm adding a few lines below that are part of the new owner's comments that may be of interest to compers.
"Luckwell said the acquisition will provide access to a database of more than 1.5 million names, of which only 9% have recently purchased a Reader's Digest product.
"There is significant potential to further develop and utilise those large databases," he said.
