		EMI said the cost, together with $26.4 million of balance sheet and other write-offs linked to Carey's giant recording deal, would be treated as exceptionals in accounts for the year ended March 31, 2002.
		EMI signed Carey, 31, to its Virgin Records label last year in what was said to be the biggest recording contract ever, estimated at $80 million over four albums.
		Some analysts questioned whether EMI was being rash in scrapping the star after one ill-fated album, given that she still ranks as one of the top selling artists of all time.

	TAXI A&R Interview: Kaz Utsunomiya, Virgin Records
		Virgin wanted to start up a publishing company in the U.S., which was just a year after they opened the record company in America.
		My time at Virgin Music was fun because we had bands to look after, not a catalog of a half a million songs.
		But ultimately, I wanted to learn more about American record companies from the inside, and if you're going to work at a record company, it might as well be with people you like.

	XTC Forum - Virgin Records
		Well, anyone who's familiar with XTC's relationship with Virgin Records should be aware of how delicate and strained it became when Andy decided to call the touring off....
		It's really just a fantasy, I guess, that Virgin (or TVT, or whoever) would even bother putting this together...but it's a shame that such a cool catalog of art be something that will only be appreciated by those lucky enough to have been around when it came out on 7" vinyl.
		I don't know if XTC ever got to know this (I'm not sure, if these nazi records are also sold in Britain, they do extremely well in Austria and Germany), but maybe this was another thing bringing them up against their company.

	JS Online: Virgin Records enters the music download market Monday
		Virgin, a unit of the Virgin Group, becomes the first major music retailer to enter the download market, which has been dominated by Apple Computer and other technology companies.
		What's interesting is that Virgin is putting its biggest emphasis on its subscription service rather than, for example, selling songs one at time for 99 cents a track as Apple and Microsoft do.
		It is betting that people will join its Virgin Music Club for a $7.99 monthly fee to listen to an unlimited amount of music from Virgin's 1-million-track library on their computers.
