Worth mentioning: Hollywood Makes Record Profit in 2009
At the same time while accusing its own customers to ruin the business by pirating movies, Hollywood looks back at a record year, making almost a billion dollars more than 2008 at US and Canadian box offices. And for the first time ever the studios cross the magical $10 billion mark
More remarkable: The record profit hits Hollywood's industry in a year where most other industries have to fight with the global economic meltdown and more consumers are supposed to save money by using the internet for entertainment. And in fact, online piracy has increased, but it does not show any impact on box office receipts.
