Hearst had to get with the times and get heavily into e-trading if they wanted to stay relevant. We have all seen what has happened to print media as a whole. RIP AutoWeek, and C&D and R&T are hanging by a thread. This move makes sense from both sides, as any small businessman would (or at least should) jump at the chance to be absorbed by the proverbial bigger fish.
I've gotten two cars from BaT and am on the site every day. I am hoping that what is working today will continue to work for Hearst, and that they'll listen to their public when making new decisions concerning the platform.
We will see!
