More on Live Nation
Description from Wikipedia:
Live Nation, Inc. NYSE: LYV is a live events company based in Beverly Hills, California. Live Nation formed in 2005 by a spin-off from Clear Channel Communications. The present CEO of the company is Michael Rapino.
Mainly a concert promoter, Live Nation "signs" artist as a "record label", but predominantly takes the role of a promoter, rather than "owner of music". The deal with U2 and Madonna for example does not include copyright of the artists' future recordings. The 2007 deal signed with Jay-Z does include the rapper's future recordings. Recently, Live Nation has signed Colombian singer Shakira and Canadian band Nickelback.
