Products and brands

The name hints both to its co-owner Colin Miles and The Who's "I Can See for Miles".

Mark Rye, known for managing Bill Nelson, joined See for Miles just as CDs were becoming popular, and started Magpie as its authorised mail-order company, in 1990. He had previously worked with Colin Miles at EMI. One of his business partners was Steve Waters.
