XL Recordings is based in UK, London.
They have two offices in which one is in London and the other in New York.
XL Recordings is much smaller than Sony Music Entertainment as they have a smaller range of artists and offices. Whilst Sony is a major record label that has mass audiences for their artists, XL Recordings being an independent record label has niche audiences for their artists.
A mass audience is one that appeals to a broad number of people and most of the time these audiences may overlap in the artists they listen to e.g. people that listen to Beyonce may also listen to Micheal Jackson and many others that are part of major record labels.
Independent record labels mainly attract and build several niche (specific to that genre) audiences for their artists. Sometimes the audiences may overlap but not as much as they do with mass audiences.
Good - you are starting to integrate comparison into your work - this is the core skill for the higher grades: knowledge, understanding, application and evaluation of the case study material.
