Virgin Records is owned by EMI who own HMV.  Virgin Megastores is 75%
owned by WH Smiths and 25% by Richard Branson the Monkey. This also holds
for Our Price.  Virgin Radio is owned by Chris Evans.  V2 Records is owned
by the Noel Edmonds impersonater.  And Virgin Cola tastes of piss.

Hope this helps.

Rod.
