== History ==
CBS Music Video Enterprises was founded in October 1985 as a division of CBS Records, owned at the time by CBS Inc. It was a vehicle for home video distribution of titles related to acts on the various labels part of or distributed by CBS Records, such as Columbia, Epic, Portrait, and CBS Masterworks (now known as Sony Classical). Prior to 1988, all titles produced by CBS Music Video Enterprises were distributed by [[The CBS/Fox Company]] which released them under the CBS/Fox Video Music banner. On January 5, 1988, Sony Corporation acquired CBS Records; the CBS Music Video Enterprises division was spun off into its own label afterward. The company began issuing titles on its own in August 1988. On January 1, 1991, Sony, which acquired most international rights to the Columbia trademarks from EMI in 1990, renamed its music subsidiary to '''Sony Music Entertainment'''; the video arm subsequently adopted the name Sony Music Video (also known as Sony Music Video Enterprises).
Although it initially released music-related titles exclusively, it soon began to release titles unrelated to music, particularly after generating three distinct division labels that it would operate alongside its own company: Columbia Music Video, Epic Music Video and Sony
On March 13, 2007, Sony BMG announced an intention to focus on its core music business. All of its non-music video distribution contracts were cancelled or transferred to other companies, such as Genius Entertainment and Vivendi Entertainment. The remainder of Sony Wonder's operations were transferred to [[Sony Pictures Home Entertainment]], which subsequently operated it as a family entertainment label; SPHE renamed Sony Wonder to Sony Pictures Kids Zone in 2020. In 2008, Sony purchased Bertelsmann AG's stake in the music arm, readopting the Sony Music Entertainment name for it.
