I'm not really that surprised since this company has been silent in the last few years.
Sosseres:
Wonder what will happen with the blacklist when the new companies, owned by the same people take over. A few titles are bound to be dropped in the transfer, but mostly no change I guess.

Funi will probably try to buy them or another firm, or ... well ...

If you read the press release,[/quote] you get:
--- Quote ---HOUSTON, September 1, 2009 — A.D. VISION, INC. ("ADV" or the "Company") announced today that June 1, 2009, the Company concluded a series of transactions that are expected to result in seamless delivery of home video products and television programming to customers.

So basically, it's like a fansub group dropping a series and then continuing to sub it under a different name. More of a corporate restructuring than a complete shutdown.
EDIT: More details / analysis posted--
