Bertelsmann Music Group

Bertelsmann Music Group (BMG) was a division of German media company Bertelsmann. It relaunched as BMG Rights Management after the sale of the majority of its assets to Sony Corporation of America on October 1, 2008. Although established in 1987, BMG was formed as RCA/Ariola International in 1985 as a joint venture to combine the music label activities of RCA's RCA Records division and Bertelsmann's Ariola Records and its associated labels which include Arista Records. It consisted of the BMG Music Publishing company, the world's third largest music publisher and the world's largest independent music publisher and (since August 2004) the 50% share of the joint venture with Sony Music Entertainment, which established the German-American Sony BMG Music Entertainment from 2004 to 2008.
