Label Revival

Warner Classics have recently reactivsted the His Master's Voice label as a budget classical reissue label. I spotted a few CDs on the label in a UK record store a few days ago. All CDs were reissues of old EMI recordings. I've not yet found anything online regarding this, though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.118.9.33 (talk) 22:57, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

Are you sure? Yes, Warner Classics owns the old His Master's Voice classical music catalogue. But the HMV record label was rendered defunct before EMI was broken up when EMI sold the HMV trademark to the record store chain of the same name. Any revival of the label needs a citation and can be used in the text of the article. But it would be misleading to put anything other then EMI as the parent company in the infobox. I did find a couple of compilation CDs from Warner Classics that mention HMV such as at [1] and at [2] but they are on the Erato and Warner Classics label and not on HMV.
