  • Bertelsmann Music Group, (BMG), was a division of Bertelsmann before its completion of sale of the majority of its assets to Sony Corporation of America on October 1, 2008. It was established in 1987 to combine the music label activities of Bertelsmann. It consisted of the BMG Music Publishing company, the world's third largest music publisher and the world's largest independent music publisher, and the 50% share of the joint venture with Sony Music, Sony BMG Music Entertainment (Sony BMG). The joint venture with Sony was set up in August 2004. It reduced the Big Five of music companies to the Big Four record labels. At that time, the company had a 21.5% share in the global music market. Sony Music and BMG remained separate in Japan, although BMG Music Japan was wholly owned by Sony BMG. On March 27, 2006, the New York Times reported that Bertelsmann was looking to raise money by leveraging some of its media assets, and that executives from both companies were in talks about possibly altering the current venture. Bertelsmann sold its 50% share of Sony BMG to Sony Corporation of America for a total of $1.5 billion and the company will be renamed Sony Music Entertainment Inc. While officially withdrawing from the business of recorded music, Bertelsmann will continue its strong presence in the music industry with the forthcoming BMG branded company, BMG Rights Management, which will specialize in music rights management by representing artists and authors. It will be focused mainly in BMG's European stronghold markets. The basis of the company will be formed through BMG's decision to withhold selected European music catalogs from the former Sony BMG joint venture and the BMG Publishing business. Also kept separate from the acquisition by Sony Corporation of America was Sony BMG's wholly owned and operated BMG Japan. Sony Music Japan remained independent from the Sony BMG joint venture, therefore BMG and Sony labeling were kept separate in Japan under the venture. During Sony BMG's buyout, BMG Japan was instead picked up by Sony Music Entertainment Japan. It briefly continued to operate as a distinct entity until when, in early 2009, the Japanese operations were shifted under the global Sony Music Entertainment, subsequently leading to BMG Japan's folding.

  • BMG (Bertelsmann Music Group) on yksi osa saksalaista mediakonserni Bertelsmannia. Se perustettiin 1990-luvulla alussa yhdistämään Bertelsmannin eri levymerkkejä. BMG muodostuu julkaisuyhtiö BMG Music Publishing companysta ja elokuussa 2004 Sony Music Entertainmentin kanssa perustetusta yhteistyöyrityksestä Sony BMG Music Entertainment. Tämän fuusion seurauksena maailman musiikkiliiketoiminnassa puhutaan "suuresta neljästä" aiemman "suuren viiden" ("Big Five") sijaan. Elokuussa 2008 Sony ilmoitti ostavansa BMG:n osuuden Sony BMG -levy-yhtiöstä. Levy-yhtiön nimeksi vaihtui Sony Music Entertainment.
