Source : La TribuneFor the fourth consecutive year, sales of DVD have fallen. In 2008, losing 5,5% in volume and 7,5% in value.
Since 2004, this market lost 600 million euros to be only 1,3 billion now. On the other hand, the sales of Blu-ray and in VOD progress but not enough to compensate for this loss allotted by the SEVN (Synicate of digital video editors) to piratage. They ask the public authorities to pass as fast as possible the law against piratage (ex Hadopi).
They also hope that the modification of the timescale of the release of the media will help to start again the market.
