This is the second time that Weltbild had to file for insolvency.
The last time was in 2014. (If you scroll down you will actually find a couple of threads about this from 10 years ago under "similar threads".) They released a statement on their website (in german) that says the company is being restructured and that things will continue to operate as usual. Google translation: Quote:
Also Weltbild is NOT Tolino... They are only one of multiple partners in the Tolino Alliance. Even if Weltbild were to go belly up, it would most likely have no significant impact on Tolino e-readers. |

As Thalia is still the biggest single shareholder of Tolino, we don't have to worry.
