research; distribution of film

films can be Distributed by many different ways,
-streaming
~streaming is where the film is sent via Internet to a television or console, this is done by such retailers such as netfilx, lovefilm. these are now becoming a big money way of selling film to the captive audience. Over these retailers you rent the film for so long which is streamed to your device, this is the more modern way to rent over going out to your local Blockbuster and physically renting the film, this way you do not have to leave the house to rent or return.
~streaming is also a bad thing it can be stolen through illigal downloading, this is becoming more and more of a problem to film makes such as Warner and Warp films.
-socail networking is free advertising to the film producers, this allows them to advertise up and comming films, the users of facebook (over 845 million active users) will comment on the film to there friends unintentionally advertising there film to others.
