I think the general rule of the thumb inside the industry (at least in Australia) is that the sales are disappointing. That however doesn't mean we wont support the format. If profits there, it'll be supported.
I think the general nature of the industry is becoming more de-centralised. No longer will we have only TV broadcasts, dvd retail sales and the cinema. Cinema and TV broadcasting aren't going anywhere, but the way we buy our movies will change. Brick and Mortar sales will remain but things like itunes will offer avenues for buying over the internet. Let alone video on demand services and streaming services.
Its a very exciting (but challenging time).
