Not sure why someone keeps reverting this page. David C. Cook never owned/nor renamed the label. During the sale of Integrity Media to David C. Cook, Mosely purchased INO Records and renamed the label Fair Trade Services. All the sources listed say the same thing. Plus that would contradict the last two sentances, David C. Cook can't rename the label and then after the sale Jeff Mosely can't renamed it too.
