- 48% of those who work in Sales & Distribution feel it will take more than 4 years to reach the revenue levels of DVD at its peak, if ever.
New revenue streams
I asked my respondents “Do you think that new revenue streams (such as iTunes, Video on Demand, etc) will match the level of revenue DVD used to generate at its peak?”.

About the survey
The survey involved 1,235 film industry professionals, all of whom have attended at least one of the three major film markets (Cannes, Berlin or AFM) within the past five years. I asked questions on a variety of hot topics including piracy, the appeal of 3D, gender, and how optimistic industry professionals are for 2014.
