Isn't BMG owned by Sony?
It sure sounds like Universal wasn't willing to pay up for a new album. This could indeed be good news!

It is the first time the veteran rockers have appointed an outside music publisher in 40 years.

The songs to be directly published by BMG span six albums from 1983's Undercover to 2005's A Bigger Bang
Future compositions will also be represented by the company, which was started in 2008
Who cares of that. Sometimes people are a litte bit far from the roots. Listening the music, that's all.Quote

Does this mean that we could see a real excavation from the vaults? There must be hours upon hours of alt takes, live stuff, unreleased material that they could now release.

Yeah, but this is publishing (holding rights for the USE of their music, media plays, note sheet sales etc), right? Not licensing of the actual RIGHTS to the music/release sales?
The term publishing is used very sloppily in the music world today

Is this to indicate that Jagger/Richards also don't have the rights to their material from 1971 to 1983? If so, then no wonder they've concentrated so heavily on touring since then.
