Después de que se vendieran muchos de sus activos, los restos de la división de películas de PolyGram se incorporaron a Universal Pictures . Cuando la división de entretenimiento recién formada de Seagram enfrentó dificultades financieras, se vendió a Vivendi y MCA se hizo conocida como Universal Studios, ya que Seagram dejó de existir. Vivendi siguió siendo el propietario mayoritario de Universal Music Group hasta 2021, cuando vendió la mayor parte de su participación, MGM posee los derechos de la biblioteca anterior a 1996 y la biblioteca de cine y televisión posterior a 1996 es propiedad de NBCUniversal. En 2017, Universal Music Group estableció una división de cine y televisión, resucitando PolyGram Entertainment. (es)

Após a PolyGram ser adquirida em 1998 pela empresa canadense Seagram, a PolyGram FE tornou-se subsidiária da Universal Studios.
