We are very active in licensing repertoire. Again, we think that there is a benefit to making sure that we are fully engaged with respect to promotion, marketing, and publicity, etc. Yes, we’ve announced four license deals with four Canadian artists in the last month, for example. And very well known artists as well—Tom Cochrane, Carol and Don Johnson and Country, George Canyon and Country, and the Swollen Members. All very disparate artists, but all license deals with the artists. We’re making their records, and we’ve come in and been part of the process.

We also distribute in Canada and represent New West, which is an LA-based label; TVT, which is a New York-based label; Road Runner, which is New York and European-based; Metal Blade; Iron Works. We represent quite a number of US companies in Canada also. Because again, we’re here to do the job and we have the manpower, and most importantly, the ambition to be successful on behalf of these labels. We’re very, very pro-license deal worldwide, but certainly in Canada also.
