The surviving members of Pink Floyd have put aside their differences to score a massive payday. Sources tell the Financial Times and Variety that the band has agreed to sell the rights to its music, name, and likeness to Sony for $400 million. The sale follows more than 40 years of infighting between Roger Waters and David Gilmour, with drummer Nick Mason apparently caught in the middle. «It’s really disappointing these rather elderly gentlemen are still at loggerheads», Mason said in 2018. The estates of founding members Syd Barrett, who died in 2006, and Richard Wright, who died in 2008, were also involved in the deal.
