Sony owning catalogue since June 25, 2009?
November 25, 2009, 11:04:34 AM
We were looking into Sony in another thread (You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login) and found this:

mjssoulmate wrote:This is news to me: "Sony Music Entertainment is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sony Corporation of America".
I thought Michael owned 50% of that subsidiary. What happened? Does anyone know?


Now look at the date of the press release:
Archive for June, 2009
Jun 25 2009
SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT AND DADA STRENGTHEN THEIR STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP
[...]
Sony Music Entertainment is a wholly owned subsidiary of Sony Corporation of America.

Does this mean they now own 100% of the catalogue? Since June 25, 2009?

If this is the case, something really serious is going on,
because to my knowledge Michael still owns the catalogue..
 :?: or maybe he owns it all now..(wishful thinking)

This is not true. Michael does own 50 % of SONY Music Entertainment, this includes the Beatles catalogue, Elvis songs and many many more, and it’s worth hell of a lot of money.

But why would Sony release an official statement on June 25, 2009 that Sony Music Entertainment is a wholly owned company of Sony Corp America it this were not true?

Does anybody in the forum have access to a data base on company structures of Sony in the US?

Guys, MJ does NOT own 50% of Sony Music Entertainment or Sony Music Corp. He owns 50% of Sony/ATV Music Publishing, which is just one subsidiary (granted, a very profitable one) of Sony Music Entertainment. There are many subsidiaries (smaller companies) that are a part of SME. Sony/ATV Music Publishing is just one part, and that is what MJ owns 50% of.

Whoa!  That's some very interesting info....remember in TII, when he says we have 3 (or 4?) years...makes me wonder if he wasn't just referring to Mother Earth but maybe had to do with his music too???  Maybe we should move this to it's own topic.

We will have a few years to wait to hear new material by michael, but listening to him do the speech where he says about Sony, he says for every album released he's written around 150 for them, so my math not great, but i'd say it near around 1000 songs in the vault... How many albums would that be?

MJ you Are The greatest!!
