I think it's possible this company was actually succeeded by Lantis - in 1999, when Lantis was formed.
This, because the Registrant Code (
AP0 - which was registered originally by
Apollon, obviously) from the ISRCs I got from an album printed by Bandai Music Entertainment (APCG-4044) is
now (or was last) registered to Lantis; and the fact that
Bandai Visual is now the parent company of Lantis.
This would especially prompt the defunct date to be changed as well, as I also don't see any other albums in the company's catalog that was released later than 1999.
