That's quite normal nowadays. In America, Madonna set a new record last week for an album which was at No. 1 in its first chart week: From 359.000 sales down to 48.000 (minus 87%). |

Thanks again, dixie!
So after Sony selling the distribution part of DADC to Andersen Bertelsmann/Arvato is the last (former) major still in distribution?
Do you know when/if EMI/Capitol sold their american distribution? |

Sony DADC has never carried out distribution for Sony Music UK or SonyBMG. Prior to using Arvato, (owned by BMG's parent company), Sony were distributed by TEN, (a joint venture with Warner Music that they sold to Cinram). Proir to that, Sony Music owned and controlled their own manufacturing and distribution centre in Aylesbury. (This was the facility that became TEN and subseqently sold to Cinram). BMG were distributed by Arvato prior to the merger with Sony.From point of merger, SonyBMG (and now Sony Music) were distributed by Arvato. |

"Not sure where you get Sony DADC from. Distribution is done by Arvato, but under direction from Universal themselves."
Thanks for the correction dixie.
When UMG sold their factories & distribution systems to EDC (2005) they signed a 10-year-contract with EDC. In 2008 EDC was sold to Sony DADC.
Do you (or someone else) know who did physical distribution in the UK for Sony BMG (2004-2008): Arvato or Sony DADC? Thanks! |
