How big data is transforming the creative industries, and how those industries can use lessons from Netflix, Amazon, and Apple to fight back.

" The authors explain] gently yet firmly exactly how the internet threatens established ways and what can and cannot be done about it. Their book should be required for anyone who wishes to believe that nothing much has changed."
--The Wall Street Journal

"Packed with examples, from the nimble-footed who reacted quickly to adapt their businesses, to laggards who lost empires."
--Financial Times

Traditional network television programming has always followed the same script: executives approve a pilot, order a trial number of episodes, and broadcast them, expecting viewers to watch a given show on their television sets at the same time every week. But then came Netflix's House of Cards. Netflix gauged the show's potential from data it had gathered about subscribers' preferences, ordered two seasons without seeing a pilot, and uploaded the first thirteen episodes all at once for viewers to watch whenever they wanted on the devices of their choice.

In this book, Michael Smith and Rahul Telang, experts on entertainment analytics, show how the success of House of Cards upended the film and TV industries--and how companies like Amazon and Apple are changing the rules in other entertainment industries, notably publishing and music. We're living through a period of unprecedented technological disruption in the entertainment industries. Just about everything is affected: pricing, production, distribution, piracy. Smith and Telang discuss niche products and the long tail, product differentiation, price discrimination, and incentives for users not to steal content. To survive and succeed, businesses have to adapt rapidly and creatively. Smith and Telang explain how.

How can companies discover who their customers are, what they want, and how much they are willing to pay for it? Data. The entertainment industries, must learn to play a little "moneyball." The bottom line: follow the data.

HEALING NOTICED WITHIN A WEEK
Format: Paperback
Words are very important and knowing what words to pray or speak sometimes evades me. When I got my copy of DECREES THAT HEAL from the author, I began to pray and speak God’s Word over my body and within a week I noticed I was being healed. Here’s my journal entry: Journal entry 11/28/23 HEALING The growth on my back is shrinking daily and is the smallest it has been in the past 5 years. I just called the surgeon to cancel my upcoming appointment to have it surgically removed. My plan is to continue speaking DECREES THAT HEAL over my body. Thank You JESUS for all You have done for Your people! UPDATE 1/16/24: The growth on my back is still shrinking and is now about the size of a small English pea. It no longer itches, burns and hurts. Little by little my healing is manifesting. I praise God!
