Pink Floyd, who have sold more than 200m albums in their 40-year career, are understood to be considering selling part of their back catalogue. The rights to albums including Animals, The Wall, A Momentary Lapse Of Reason and The Division Bell are held under contract by EMI but are coming up for review. EMI, which has rights to the group's earlier work up to and including the 1975 album Wish You Were Here, is understood to have an agreement to match any rival offer. But a rights deal is complicated by divisions that grew up within the group, which now has three different managers. EMI said it had a 'positive and long-term relationship' with the band.
