Owning A Video Business USED To Be Expensive ...
10/15/2007 1:27:32 AM
If you look back at the film industry It was a very elite business. First, there were the films that were produced in 8mm and Super 8mm. Mostly cartoons and a few TV shows. Dated 1950's to 1970's. Then the age of technology kick in the 1980's. BETA!!! Following right behind was VHS. VHS became the choice. Also, Laser Disc came out but proved too big and expensive.

So, as VHS became the popular media a few entrepeneurs started the video rental businesses. Blockbuster, Video Den, Erols ... they all saw the money to be made and did. BILLIONS of dollars. But to get started you had to set up a store, licensing and many, many videos. For each store it cost somewhere around $40,000.00 to $60,000.00 to start.

Now the media is DVD. Still costs tons to get a store open and you are just one location for a physical pickup/dropoff.

There is a much better way and your customers are around the WORLD! Plus, you are looking at the beginning of a new revolution in movie viewing. iPods and Sony PSP. Two recent devices that have yet to break wide open with video sales. They are happening and growing steadily.

If you look at what available right now is mostly Peer-to-Peer sites with movies for these devices. Here's where Peer-to-Peer is a problem.

You join P2P site for a monthly fee, about $30 a month. Then you search for your titles and then you will get a list of who else is logged on that has what you are looking for. You may get several people with the same movie and get clusters from each one. And you may not get the entire movie. Some people don't like to share even when they join a P2P site. So you get cut off with incomplete movie files. Or someone decided to rename a virus to look like a movie. Well, be careful.

Again there is a better way.

If you were to get your movies from one source that guarantees virus free and give you licensing to resale and at an affordable price that puts P2P sites to shame wouldn't this be the better choice? Of course it is.

Find out more here and start your video business in time for Christmas.
