The "all-media" study--a term used to describe all income made from home video, television, and theatrical entertainment--included the following movie production studios: Walt Disney Co., Paramount Pictures Corp., Sony Pictures Entertainment, 20th Century Fox Film Corp., Universal City Studios and Warner Bros. Entertainment.
The all-media study also shows that sales grew by 10% in the U.S. and 5% in the top 25 international markets including Canada, the new so-called 'pirate haven' (http://filesharingtalk.com/vb3/f-news-section-95/t-canada-hit-movie-preview-ban-181131). Canada "showed the biggest growth in terms of dollars by adding $341 million USD" and Russia, another known pirate haven, also jumped up "to become the 13th-ranked purchaser of U.S. filmed entertainment, a 50% hike from last year."
