The filmed entertainment market consists of consumer spending at the box office for theatrical motion pictures plus spending on renting from video stores and other retail outlets (the in-store rental market) and purchasing home video products in retail outlets or through Web sites (the sell-through market). The television network market consists of advertiser spending on broadcast and cable networks, plus other sources of revenue that vary by region.

Digital distribution consists of music distributed to mobile phones through wireless carriers and of music downloaded from the Internet through licensed services.
