In America, all of the company's releases were distributed by Genius Products under its resurrected name. Once Genius crumbled in 2009, Liberation folded the same year, with its library being sold one year later to Camelot Entertainment Group, which in turn went on in 2013 to be acquired by Liberty International co-founder Irv Hollender's then-new outfit Multicom Entertainment.
