British Phonographic Industry
From Jackopedia
The British Phonographic Industry (BPI) is the British record industry's trade association. Its membership comprises hundreds of music companies including all four 'major' record companies (Warner Music Group, EMI, Sony Music Entertainment, and Universal Music Group), associate members such as manufacturers and distributors, and hundreds of independent music companies representing literally thousands of labels. It has represented the interests of British record companies since being formally incorporated in 1973 when the principal aim was to fight copyright infringement.
