Application Spotlight: Dreams the Movie DVD Promotion Tab

DVD and Blu-ray discs remain the largest source of movie industry revenue (61% in 2012). This year, research shows that this year movie producers are expected to earn $29.4 billion from TV and home video sales.  Online distribution (through iTunes, Amazon, Netflix, direct, i.e.) is also becoming a powerful component of the sales mix and online distribution will increase from 5.6% of total revenues this year to 16.6% in 2018 - that's a stagering 260% from $3.5 billion to $12.7 billion in 2018.

That said, promoting DVD (and online distribution) on and offline continues to be an important part of the movie marketing mix.
