Sony Music’s publishing division Sony/ATV has done a deal with Getty Images, making a stack of library music available to the photo company. Getty will make tracks from Sony’s Spin City library of pre-cleared tuneage available via its own music library service for use in TV programmes, films, adverts and other such things.
Getty Images CEO Jonathan Klein told CMU: “With the addition of the Sony/ATV Spin City catalogue, Getty Images continues to strengthen its position in the global media environment as a leading digital media content provider. This partnership enables us to support our customers’ growing demand for premium music content”.
Sony/ATV big cheese Marty Bandier added: “Sony/ATV recognises that there is tremendous opportunity for growth in the commercial market through innovative digital media channels”.
