History
AllMovie was founded by popular-culture archivist (Michael Erlewine), who also founded AllMusic and (AllGame).
The AllMovie database was licensed to tens of thousands of distributors and retailers for point-of-sale systems, websites and kiosks. The AllMovie database is comprehensive, including basic product information, cast and production credits, plot synopsis, professional reviews, biographies, relational links and more.[]
AllMovie data was accessed on the web at the AllMovie website. It was also available via the (AMG LASSO) media recognition service, which can automatically recognize DVDs.
In late 2007, (TiVo Corporation) acquired AMG for a reported $72 million.
The AMG consumer facing web properties (AllMusic.com), AllMovie.com and AllGame.com were sold by (Rovi) in August 2013 to (All Media Network, LLC). The buyers also include the original founders of (SideReel) and Ackrell Capital investor Mike Ackrell.
RhythmOne offices are located in (San Francisco, California), and (Ann Arbor, Michigan), United States.
