The service was initially designed to market music directly by mail, targeting rural consumers who had limited access to music stores. In the 1980s and 1990s, Columbia House was particularly popular, offering deals such as "8 CDs for a penny" which attracted many customers. The business model relied on customers committing to buy a certain number of items at regular club prices over a specified period. However, the advent of digital music and streaming services led to a decline in Columbia House's business. In 2005, Columbia House was acquired by BMG and transitioned into a mail-order DVD club. Despite this shift, the company continued to struggle and filed for bankruptcy in 2015. === Show InformationWebsite:
