World video turns corner
World video turns corner
World consumer spending on buying and renting video software fell for the first time in eight years in 2005. Consumers worldwide spent $51.8bn on video software in 2005 - down more than six percent on the amount spent in 2004. DVD software at a new high in 2005 - up five per cent compared with the previous year to $48.1bn - was insufficient to compensate for a 62 per cent fall to $3.4bn in VHS spending. In 2004 the digital format posted worldwide growth of 40 per cent, and retail sales of 1.9bn units. In 2005, growth slowed to 11 per cent in volume, generating retail sales of 2.1bn units.

Netherlands TV market profile
Long the most cable-dominated television economy in Europe, if not the world, the Netherlands is seeing other technologies encroach: satellite DTH, digital terrestrial and especially Internet Protocol television (IPTV), which is making rapid in-roads.

European video software markets
European video software markets
DVD volume sales continue to climb but spending fell in 2005. Retail DVD sales continued to grow in 2005 albeit at a slower rate than in previous years. Volume sales of DVD increased by 15 per cent to 657m units, accounting for 94 per cent of total European video sales. However, the gain in volume sales failed to be translated into spending as the average price of a retail DVD in Europe declined by around 13 per cent in 2005.

World film production/distribution
World film production/distribution
Global production total soars as local films gain market share. World film production hit 4,597 feature films in 2005 - a sharp 7.8 per cent increase on the previous year and the highest level recorded since 1990. The increase was led by European film production, particularly in Western Europe, where 1,052 feature films were produced, the highest total in that region since records began. And 44 per cent of West European films were co-productions.

Digital cinema roll-out begins
Digital cinema roll-out begins
We are now seven years into the launch of digital cinema, and the market has reached a point where large-scale commercial roll-out is in its early phases. The number of commercial d-cinema screens doubled in the six months from July to December 2005 and this growth has continued into 2006. In 2005, the first plan to digitise a whole nation was announced and 2006 has already witnessed the digitisation of a whole cinema circuit and another plan to prepare a whole territory for digitisation..
