After releasing two albums near the end of public interest in the boy band format, O-Town has no future plans to perform concerts or release further albums.
The novelty of the band soon wore off, however, and the band never really found the market acceptance they sought; the boy band niche was already largely filled by competitors *NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys. Making matters even more difficult was the fact that O-Town burst on to the scene when boy bands and other types of bubble gum pop were beginning to decline and lose their influence. Sales of O-Town's second album, O2, were below expectations, and J Records dropped the band from the label.
O-Town understood that gaining a foothold in the music industry would be a challenge, considering the transparent nature of the band's formation. Making the Band had the unfortunate effect of emphasizing the extent to which bands like O-Town were packaged and corporately controlled, facets of the music industry that listeners were not attracted to. At the same time, however, the television show also illustrated the humanity of the band members, showing their struggle for market acceptance and group identity. Though the group released several songs, O-Town was never able to reach the popularity attained by other boy bands of the time.
Though fans tried to organize campaigns to get O-Town signed to a new label, these efforts were met with little success. As a result, the group disbanded late in 2003.

Some reasons is base upon fame, money, greed. When u become part of the rock and roll dream, sometimes you become engulfed with money, drugs, alcohol that the fame becomes too much to sustain. Other reasons could be that people didn't get along with each other in the group. I mean many famous and unfamous bands break up a lot base upon the friendships that they have. Others just get sick and tired of it and just want to grow up to live a normal life with a wife and kids.

Their debut album fared poorly, and without their TV show to promote them, they haven't been heard from since 2002's "O2" release.
