Akkam’s Razor

“I think the real key is that people don?t like to go to movie theaters. As a result, new movies get seen at home, where it?s a bit harder to track box office receipts. I suspect that any movie that comes out now will get 30% of it?s receipts from the theaters. The rest comes from everything else: DVDs, rentals, TV, etc. We have so much to watch that we don?t want to go anywhere. We need to stay at home just to catch up, and we catch up long after the movie hits, and fades from, the theatre.”

And while the studios blame pirates and P2P, they realease their works on cheap DVD’s and wonder where the movie fans are.
