Windsong (Pinnacle, Rough Trade, Music For Nations)
Zomba Records GmbH was integrated into BMG's German operation along with the other regional offices. The Rough Trade name was later reacquired by Geoff Travis and Jeanette Lee who eventually continued it independently. When BMG restructured Zomba in 2003, Windsong/Pinnacle was moved under Bertelsmann's Arvato AG. Through a management buyout, Windsong/Pinnacle gained its independence in early 2008, but was forced into administration late in the year due to the 2008 financial crisis.
