Naxos Records is a record label specializing in classical music. The company was known for its budget pricing of discs,[6] with simpler artwork and design than most other labels.[7] In the 1980s, Naxos primarily recorded central and eastern European symphony orchestras, often with lesser-known conductors, as well as upcoming and unknown musicians, to minimize recording costs and maintain its budget prices.
In 2003, it began a paid subscription service for listening on the Internet that offers its complete catalogue and the Naxos Music Library.[9] As of 2019, subscribers had access to 2,225,190 tracks on its 145,755 discs, though these numbers were increasing by nearly 100 new discs a day.[citation needed] In 2015, it launched a high-definition download and streaming service, ClassicsOnline HD•LL, with a catalogue drawn from a number of classical record labels.[10]
Distribution
Naxos Global Logistics, based in Poing near Munich, was founded in 2008[11] to expand the services offered to its distributed labels, including manufacturing, marketing, and licensing.[12]
