Natu Nobilis Tronhadar Free Guard Minmatar Republic 229	Posted - 2013.05.10 18:30:00 - [1] - Quote Passari GÇô Kaalakiota Corporation announced today that it will begin selling off assets owned by its subsidiary Echelon Entertainment in order to cover its upcoming debt payments to Caldari Funds Unlimited. The move, which has been expected by analysts since news of KK's financial difficulties were first brought to light, is expected to provide the megacorporation with enough operating capital to meet all its obligations in the coming quarter. Included in the sale are numerous properties, including equipment, studio space, and other physical goods. However, the majority of the sale, and that which is expected to draw most interest, are large amounts of its intellectual property and music rights. Rights to over three-hundred top-tier musical acts, holoreel productions, broadcast networks, and novels are being sold off. Most notably, the news program This is the State is up for sale, as is Echelon's highly popular economic news channel Caldari Financial Network. Nugoeihuvi Corporation has already announced that it will enter bids on several of the more popular Echelon properties, including the highly successful holoseries Reign of the Raata, a dramatized retelling of the rise of the Raata Empire which is currently on its fourth series.

A megacorp is selling some crap, don't they do that everyday? Though if you have why they are in debt to Caldari Funds Unlimited in the first place I would be interested.

Natu Nobilis Tronhadar Free Guard Minmatar Republic 229	Posted - 2013.05.10 18:38:00 - [4] - Quote Heth commands KK. KK is operating at loss. KK owns media. Media from KK will be sold. His popularity is not exactly the best right now, and we all know how much the media can influence the masses. Selling the propaganda arm may be a devastating blow to his remaining image. Who know what the new owners will talk about him and the State.

I like the lore a lot and you never know whats in there until you read it.

steadyhand amarr NW WARLORDS 517	Posted - 2013.05.10 18:48:00 - [7] - Quote first steps towords civil war, heth is losing control
Kiso Okami Militaires Sans Jeux 75	Posted - 2013.05.10 18:56:00 - [8] - Quote Hmm... I should stray away from foreign affairs given that I am Gallente, but hopefully Kalaakiota doesn't crash and burn before Heth does. I am pretty certain that the consequences would be disastrous for Caldari as a whole if one of their Megas goes under at this specific junction in time.
Beren Hurin OMNI Endeavors 437	Posted - 2013.05.10 19:00:00 - [9] - Quote He'll just nationalize them after he sells them.

Ohhh, don-¦t worry.... There-¦s at least 2 years until that.

Thats why I'm stockpiling now get enough ISK and money and I could last over a month before I'm really effected. What I'm worried about is if an EVE player decides to do it... They make as much money in a couple of hours as most of us make in a month...

I-¦m guessing out of my kitten that it will take at least 2-3 years until they have the economy stable enough to allow direct isk transfer between the games, and who knows how long until we have a proper industry. Right now, we-¦ll be an isk sink with the taxation and NPC only market. By then, you-¦ll have much much more than a month-¦s worth of equipment, don-¦t worry =)

In all seriousness this has happened every match I have been in since I started playing in January. Sometimes I'm lucky and the heavies are terrible though...
