A quick look around the globe can show you that the continued growth in emerging markets have led to rapid changes in many industries. One of the industries that many people seem to overlook is the entertainment industry. Global entertainment is actually in the crosswinds of many trends that have changed (and will continue to change) the face of entertainment.

With the continued growth of emerging markets, massive amounts of people have started to join the middle class. With this new status they have started to enjoy many of life’s offerings that many people take for granted: internet and entertainment.
