Movie and TV studios are experimenting with online distribution by releasing some content ahead of DVDs. This is a good sign, but other studios are holding back industry progress by hiding from the Internet at every turn.
Digital distribution is getting a little more love from some content providers this season as they experiment with releasing digital downloads of shows before the DVDs become available to consumers. However, this trend remains in the experimental stage, despite years of studios dipping their toes into the simultaneous- and early-release pool, and some providers remain steadfastly against giving the Internet any sort of advantage over their precious (and dying) DVD sales.
A short set of ramblings, outtakes and scraps, from my 2.0 life. You will notice that too much of the stuff I post and link to relates to the market segments that I have the greatest passion for — pro audio, music & cinema — but I am also a geek in my spare time and I post a lot of 'random' stuff as well.
