beaTunes News

For most of you who have subscribed to this blog, this will probably sound like old news by now:

beaTunes is moving on!

On November 1st, 2025, beaTunes and all associated data and assets will be transferred from tagtraum industries incorporated to jalulo UG, a limited liability company registered in Cologne, Germany.

Both tagtraum industries incorporated and jalulo UG are owned by me, Hendrik Schreiber, so in most ways, nothing will really change for you. I’ll continue to develop, maintain, and support beaTunes — just as before.

That said, this transfer does involve personal data, and in accordance with our privacy policy, I want to be fully transparent about it. If you’d prefer to delete your personal information before the transfer, you can easily do so via this link.

Please note that your purchases and personal data are not connected to your account in the help forum, and deleting your beaTunes account using the link above does not affect your help forum account (if you have created one).

So, why the move? The reason is actually quite simple: I’ve been living in Germany since 2009, and running a company based in another country has become increasingly cumbersome over time. It just made sense for the business to be located where I live — and for taxes to be paid here as well.

You may wonder why I waited 16 years to make this move. Honestly, I hesitated because I expected a bit of EU bureaucracy — and Germany didn’t disappoint! For example, the questionnaire for obtaining a tax ID (which you need to issue invoices) is about ten pages long, and in my case, the process took three months. Let’s just say it was a good exercise in patience.

In short: new legal home, same developer, same product.
