It was purchased by Houghton Mifflin in 1999 before becoming independent again a few years later. It has since refocused exclusively on software, cloud and app-based educational materials, selling off its physical media business to Cerebellum Corporation, who has reissued most of Sunburst's videos under the label AIM Education.
