While their backcatalogue is very dear to us on this list, it doesn't get the kind of radioplay and sales that many no.1 acts do (especially true of the Timelords single btw.). The backcatalogue is still in shops worldwide, the only difference is that it appears as imports here in the UK. What they really did when they deleted everything was to simply hand over the day to day running of their backcatalogue in Britain to Arista." - Andy_R I see your point if you are talking about present day. They don't really have a huge fan base now. I'm referring to the 1992 when they were at the height of their career. I really wouldn't doubt that the money lost in first 5 years amounted to several million GBP, but I could be wrong. Is there a music industry resource that tracks the number of units sold and money made from albums and singles? We have one for the computer gaming industry so I assume there must be something out there for music.
