R&H Music Publishing Catalog valued at $200 Million (estimated)

My friend and podcast co-host Tamera Bennett has posted an article at her blog  about the valuation of the Rodgers & Hammerstein music publishing catalog.  Apparently, the catalog was worth around $200 Million when it was recently purchased by a Dutch pension fund.  This valuation is estimated by experts who suggest that it’s  probably around  14 times the catalog’s annual earnings.
