All companies mentioned here recorded extra profits due to DVD sales. Plenty of info to chew over!Notes: accessed from: Factiva. Dow Jones Reuters Business Interactive LLC. RMIT University Library.

Quotations: -- "Macquaire Equities has estimated that 36 per cent of the earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) reported by News's film division in 2002 came from DVD sales and believes "this is likely to grow dramatically in the next few years".; -- Peter Chernin - COO News Corp. "We are still around the 50 per cent penetration of US households in DVDs -- it's still a very fast growing consumer product. ANd I think we're still somewhere in the high teens/low 20 per cent penetration of DVDs internationally, so we feel confident there's still a lot of growth left in the whole category."; -- Simon Bush, Chief Exec. Australian Visual Software Distributors Association - "It took the industry a bit by suprise because the home entertainment arms of the movie houses have traditionally been the poor cousins..."; -- Brendan Lyons - Media Analyst Goldman Sachs. "The sale of TV shows on DVD has also been a major plus for Fox Film. This is especially the case for older series (The Simpsons/X-Files), which would have little cost allocation against them." But Mr Lyons also believes highly popular film DVDs will dampen future TV ratings of those films. "Consumers will only watchh a film a certain number of times, irrespective of the medium," he said."
