I saw this reported yesterday on slippedisc.com:

Indeed, but never fear: Chandos is being sold to Klaus Heymann, the founder of the Naxos group.
I wonder if this means that Chandos's site will merge into Naxos's or will stay like it is?
It doesn't look like it, as Heymann has bought it personally, not via Naxos. I imagine that he will get economies of scale by using Naxos' worldwide distribution arm for Chandos CDs but that doesn't mean that they'll be merged. It was only a matter of time before Chandos followed Hyperion and BIS, but I wasn't expecting it to remain a more-or-less independent label after the sale. Interesting.
