## Why It Matters
Gammafon matters primarily as an identified Swedish record label with a long operational span beginning in 1972 and ending in 2011 via liquidation. Its Stockholm headquarters and Swedish corporate form (aktiebolag) place it clearly within Sweden’s music-industry infrastructure, and its presence across multiple music databases (Discogs, MusicBrainz, Rate Your Music) supports its relevance for cataloging, rights research, and discography work. Additionally, Gammafon is notable for being classified not only as a record label but also as a video game developer in the provided sources. That cross-industry classification is practically useful for researchers and catalogers because it connects a single entity to both music-label identifiers and game-industry listings (e.g., MobyGames). The explicit linkage to the 1999 game *Pettson o Findus i trädgården* provides a concrete example of this overlap and helps disambiguate Gammafon in knowledge graphs and archival contexts.
