Something that I believe is worth mention is the black market DVD sales in the Middle East. You can buy DVD quality videos of almost any movie within a week of its theatrical debut. Usually it is priced under $3. It even comes complete with Arabic subtitles! This article also makes it sound like some countries in the AP are not tapped into the entertainment industry which is ridiculous. Almost every home has at least one satellite streaming in hundreds of channels from the U.S., U.K., France, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, UAE, and more… A lot of the local channels are low budget, but television in the late 80s and early 90s was still good right?
