Bob Dylan Sells Song Catalog for Hundreds of Millions of Dollars

Universal Music Publishing Group has purchased Bob Dylan’s peerless songwriting catalog for hundreds of millions of dollars. Peerless songwriting simply means, songs that Bob Dylan wrote by himself without the help of others and when you look at the album credits it will only say “Bob Dylan” under the song title. Universal acquired 600 Bob Dylan songs and while an exact amount has not been disclosed, it is being reported in between 300 and 400 Million Dollars.
