Selling Hollywood, stealing Hollywood

Hollywood films and TV programs have a high production cost. They require spectators willing to pay for them. If sales outside of the United States cannot be generated, the whole model is ruined, but in Mexico there has been an estimated loss of 800 million dollars on the 2007 income. Hollywood blames illegal copies, but a deeper analysis shows that theft is not the cause of the problem. Sales are. (Monterrey International Film Festival)
