“The likelihood of online film distribution – direct from the studio to digitally equipped cinemas or via broadband cable to the home – may begin to challenge the production-distribution-exhibition chain of events that has held sway for almost a century. Instead of waiting for films to be ‘picked up’ by a local distributor in order to screen at a local cinema, film viewers will be able to directly determine when and where they watch any given title as soon as it is completed.”
