I would also be curious if there were unadmitted or unknown losses from before Sony acquired many smaller record companies?
I always find it odd to see references to "Sony Music" and "Sony Studios" as I wonder what they were before the acquisition... and I'd be very interested to know if Sony built any studios or record companies from the ground up?

I'm a freelance reissue producer who does a lot of work with Sony pop material, and am pretty familiar with their tape archives.
AFAIK, there has been no loss of master tapes - pop or classical -
from the 1970s in their holdings.
