UML

Universal Music Group Manufacturing & Logistics Inc. Operating under this name from October 1999 until May 2005. CD manufacturing plant in Grover/Kings Mountain, North Carolina, USA. Established on 01 October 1999 after renaming PMDC, USA to UMG Manufacturing & Logistics Inc. and operating until 31 May 2005, when the plant was renamed to EDC, USA, Entertainment Distribution Company LLC. UML USA CDs can be identified by [u]IFPI Mould SID Code 03xx[/u] which were inherited from PMDC, USA. As such, please do not credit UML based purely on the SID codes presented. The plant is also identifiable by "Made in USA by UML" or "UML" being printed on the CD or CD matrix. Vigilance needs to be advised as it has come to light that some releases recorded and/or released after UML was purchased by EDC may credit "MADE IN USA BY UML" in the clamping ring (mould/hub) as seen on: [2005] · [r3681561] · [r4279375] [2006] · [r1902333] · [r2662203] · [r3822012] · [r4159085] · [r3551902] · [r6491335] · [r2133383] · [r16515825] · [r21607006] [2007] · [r1584607] · [r2840381] · [r7550326] · New Amerykah: Part One (4th World War) · [r3024951] · [r2113222] [2008] · [r3732605] · [r6851749] · [r2158325] [2009] · [r11994026] . [r2556541] [Other] · [r7719201] [between 2005 and 2007] It is probably wise to mention this in the release notes in these cases and avoid crediting UML.
