The industry of Entertainment has a lot of segments, such as cinema, music and gaming. This business generally approaches the trending topics in order to fulfill the customers’ demands. How much do you know about this industry?

The commerce of movies, for example, makes hundreds of billions, being Avatar a good example with a box-office of 2,3 billion dollars. The whole movie cost 350 million to be produced. In addition to that, we have to mention the huge impact made by the three main entertainment companies in the streaming market: Comcast Corp., The Walt Disney Co. and Netflix Inc., which have been broadcasting some really first-rate, dazzling TV series. A good example is the last season of the top notch series “Friends” that made 1 million dollars per episode.

Besides movies and TV series industry, music is another one that makes a lot of money with concerts and streaming services such as Spotify, Deezer, etc.

Considering the Eras Tour shows in Brazil with tickets that may cost around U$ 200, that gives us an amount of more or less 6,5 million dollars per show.
