What a lousy excuse for putting the Varese CD Club on hold. Is he the whole organization. Aren't there any other competent people working there he could delegate to carry on in his absence. Sorry for the rough language but that's what I feel.
It would be nice if Varese were planning more concerts here in the States instead of going all the way to Spain and planning events that their American customers dont have much access to. I thought they produced soundtracks..not organize concerts.

He still favors the CD-format and will continue producing old and new scores for Varèse and a deluxe edition for STID is a possibility. He thinks the market is flooded right now (and he's right..) and not every score warrants an expanded or complete edition. So there...
Did he mention STID by name?
Yes, he did. The interviewer specifically asked him and Mr. Townson did not rule it out.

Varese doesn't organize the festivals in Spain (Ubeda, now Cordoba, and Filmucite). They only colaborate in some minimal aspects of these festivals, The organizers are from Spain.
Cheers
Ps. I think that a lot of customers for the American labels are Europeans.

True we are tough to please. At the same time its hard to look at Varese who used to produce a few club batches a year and some decent limited editions until it withered down to...little to nothing.

This is entirely subjective. Varese still releases several club releases a year, at least three, so I don't see how this could be considered "withered down to nothing". Just because some of these limited editions are of scores that we all go crazy for, doesn't mean that Varese is somehow falling short. Fans of Herrmann, Delerue, Conti, and Jarre have had lots of limited edition releases by Varese during the last calendar year. Additionally, I don't see how anyone expects things to never change at a label, especially when the market is now completely flooded with small labels producing limited edition film score albums. The market is saturated and there less and less big ticket items to release.
With everything from FSM, LaLa Land, Intrada, Kritzerland, Prometheus and others in the last decade, the once-bottomless well could simply be running dry for most fan's holy grail lists and that's just a fact everyone will need to accept.

Just release THE LIST OF ADRIAN MESSENGER which I know Varese is holding and then you can close up shop.
I wouldn`t mind another Universal Goldsmith score THE DON IS DEAD in addition to THE LIST OF ADRIAN MESSENGER. Those are actually my remaining Goldsmith holy grails (not counting one or the other still unreleased TV score by Goldsmith).
