Over the past months ADA has delivered a seamless global transition of a  significant volume of repertoire without disruption and to schedule,  and I&#8217;d like to congratulate the entire ADA team on their work. Neither  of us underestimates the complexities of this latest move, however, and  we will be monitoring the situation carefully over the coming weeks to  ensure the highest levels of service to our customers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> Eliah Seton, President of ADA Worldwide, noted, &#8220;The BMG and ADA teams  have developed a tremendous working relationship over the past months.  ADA is immensely proud to represent the extraordinary BMG catalog across  the globe, and it is very exciting to be expanding our collection with  this latest treasure trove of outstanding music from so many iconic  artists.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> Peter Stack, BMG EVP Global Catalog Recordings, said, &#8220;BMG has one of  the most significant international recording catalogs in the world,  including many of the gems of pop and rock history. We believe this  significant realignment of our distribution arrangements will enable us  to take this magnificent music to even more people around the world.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"normal\">Source: BMG<br \/><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BMG has switched distribution of 95,000 tracks and 8,000 albums from its prized catalog to&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6440","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6440","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6440"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6440\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6440"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6440"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6440"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
