According to this month's Veterinary Practice magazine, Vetstream Ltd., the erstwhile publisher of Veterinary Review, has been granted a Company Voluntary Arrangement under the Insolvency Act 1986.
VP reports that the CVA is an alternative to liquidation which in this case will allow Vetstream to make a partial repayment to it's creditors (who are collectively owed £1.15 million) of 40.08p in the pound over three years.
As I reported earlier, Vetstream Ltd now plans to focus on electronic media, including its CD-Rom products (Canis, Felis, Equis and Lapis) and www.myvetstream.com.
With the latter, they face some stiff competition, not least from this site which uses state-of-the-art software to provide the latest networking and information sharing features for vets, but also vetsonline.com, a more recent entrant to the marketplace from the publishers of Vet Times.

How is this site a competition to Vetstream. That is a website with clinical information where this site is primarily a veterinary social networking site.
Unless the scope of the site is about to change that I don't know of.
It doesn't even compare to vetsonline who seem to have a mess with their websites: vetsonline.com will redirect you to www.vbd.co.uk while www.vetsonline.com will redirect you to a different site of the same company, but based in Germany.
