"Sony BGM, Warner Music and Universal Music make up the 'Big 3' in the music industry. I believe that the best way UMG competes with these other two competitors is to work hard to sign the worlds' most celebrated artists to your core label. This approach includes being competitive when it comes to what you offer the artist. Also, working hard to scout hot new talent is a significant factor in your ability to remain ahead of your competitors."
