No other guide covers the complete entertainment
and media business like this exciting new volume—over
500 pages of business information. The global entertainment
and media industry is in the midst of vast changes - giant
mergers and acquisitions, new technologies and online services
are changing the landscape. Globalization is affecting everything
from recorded music to multimedia, from DVD sales to book
publishing. Downloads via the Internet offer both challenges
and new business opportunities.
What were the largest mergers? What are the
hottest entertainment technologies? What lies ahead? Our
market research section shows you the trends and a thorough
analysis of such technologies as PVRs (personal video recorders),
Internet television (IPTV), online subscription services,
podcasting, film trends from animation to special effects,
television advertising trends, video on demand (VOD) , recorded
and downloaded music trends, convergence, online developments,
finances and future growth within the industry. Included
are major statistical tables showing such data as movie
revenues at the box office and film industry royalties earned
through DVDs and videos; total revenues by entertainment
and media sectors; and the number of television viewing
households and whether they access television via cable,
satellite or other devices.
Meanwhile, the corporate profiles section
covering Plunkett's Entertainment and Media Industry 400
Firms gives you complete profiles of the leading, fastest
