There's a business opportunity in this article.
At the end they talk about digital-to-the-theater distribution and indie filmmakers hooking up with indie theaters.
A marketplace portal that facilitated that connection on a global basis could do well for itself.
A lot of schlepping, but a very viable market.
Yea, I never understood why that isn't the case today. I mean, they ship the film to the theaters still.
Theaters should be turnkey. Find the space, set up the Movie Market Place (MMP) hardware, make an account on MMP.com, license movies from the MMP.
Should be no different from app markets.
