Well Nut'n, it's been a slow steady decline ever since the name change (and the dumping of half their employees at the same time). Evidently the problems in Watches were two-fold; MD never hired a manager with specific watch history/experience, which in turn lead to sourcing and pricing problems. I assume something similar has happened to every one of the so-called Communities MD had established over the years and then DROPed--they were starved of the talent needed to manage them. Add to that scenario nervous investors worried about missed benchmarks and you have the perfect storm of a business on the rocks. What remains is the Chinese mid-fi Audio industry--a collection of manufacturers generally unable to establish a reliable foothold among mainstream US retailers (Bestbuy and to some extent Amazon for example), who inadvertently found a home, here on MD. Apparently some folks like headphones as much you like guns--go figure! Two things are bound to happen now:
  1. Another name change along with another site redesign and,
  2. Sale of what remains to another group of investors--probably at a loss to the primary investors.

RayFThe UX is a complete mess, but they could improve on SEO by re-branding to site.com

ChrisPDX Not much left to search for--they're just a two-bull rodeo now.
