Out of curiosity, how much income, or profit do they net from each source of
revenue. My guess is that the disparity will be dramatically reduced, as the
profit margins for each are very different.
In my experience in the US movie chains, much of the box office revenue gets
paid directly to the film distributor. I don't know if Europe operates the
same way.
