The announcement in short:

It's Twilight Time For Us!
Posted by Twilight Time on May 10th 2020

After nine years of successful operations in which 380 motion pictures from the 1930s to the 2010s have been released on DVD and Blu-ray disc, the home video label Twilight Time founded by veteran Hollywood studio executives and filmmakers Brian Jamieson and the late, dearly celebrated Nick Redman, will not release any further titles and we will be winding down operations this summer. A changing market, the rising costs of title acquisitions and the passing of longtime partner and company spokesman Nick Redman, are key reasons for the closure.

As part of our winding down process, there will be a one-time reduction in prices to $3.95, $4.45, $6.95 and $11.95 as of Monday, May 11th at www.TwilightTimeMovies.com. Cinemagistics/TwilightTimeMovies.com will continue to sell titles while available through June 30th, at which time they and Twilight Time will cease operations. Remaining inventory will be acquired and distributed exclusively by Screen Archives – effective July 1st 2020.

Wow! Didn't know it was the end for them. So sorry to hear it. I purchased The Egyptian (1954) Limited Edition BluRay from them back in 2011. At that time, the price was $44.00 plus tax & shipping. It was said that only 3000 would be released. Since this is one of my favorite films and film scores - I didn't hesitate. Glad I did too. Now, I see used copies being sold for hundreds of dollars.

In 2015, La La Land Records released a 2-disc version of the original recordings of the film score. A limited edition of 1,500 units. I pounced all over that too. I already had the John Morgan & William Stromberg digital reconstruction. I don't know if the La La Land Records edition can still be purchased though.
