Regency Media Group was an Australian media corporation operating from the mid-1950s, with a primary emphasis on digital media creation until it ceased operations in February 2023.
By 2008, Regency possessed a 74% ownership interest in an Indian partnership with Saregama, focusing on manufacturing compact discs, video CDs, and DVDs tailored for the Indian audience.
In August 2010, Regency purchased assets from the insolvent Shock Records and subsequently rebranded the entity as Shock Entertainment. Two years later, Shock DVD was rebranded to Regency Home Entertainment, establishing licensing and distribution agreements with entities including WWE, CBS, E!, and Time–Life.
June 2012 saw the introduction of Regency Film Distribution, managed by Ivan Vukusic, who previously worked at Shock.
The organization entered voluntary administration in February 2023.
