The screen size could determine the price of your movie in the future

Most of the time, DVDs cost, more or less, about the same price. However, it is illogical that watching a movie on TV costs the same as watching it on smartphones. After all, on our smartphones, the experience is somewhat limited in terms of audio and visual quality.

Well, maybe the price of your movie could be based on the media its displayed with in the future. Or at least that's the vision of the CEO of DreamWorks Animation, Jeffrey Katzenberg:
 
"A movie screen will be $15. A 75-inch TV will be $4. A smartphone will be $1.99"


Although this seems pretty logical, this model may be difficult to implement because of the difficulties a security system might encounter recognizing the exact screen size: who's to say that a user won't play a $ 1.99 film on a big screen TV?
 
That said, it is an interesting idea and Katzenberg is convinced that this pricing model will eventually be a standard in the industry. Until then, would you pay less to watch a movie on a smartphone?

"The bird is back"

After the withdrawal of the application, many developers have tried to ride the success of Flappy Bird by creating clones. But the question we've all asked is: how can someone give up $ 50,000 a day like this? 

After all, it all might be a marketing strategy since the author announced its return on all smartphones and tablets on YouTube. There are no pictures of the game yet, just a dove and the famous pipes!


 

The author of the game no longer communicates on his Twitter account and there is no way to verify if he's the one who posted it.
So, for the moment, we can only assume that the withdrawal of the application was for marketing purposes. 

Merry Christmas

May this Christmas be bright and cheerful and may the New Year begin on a prosperous note!

And as always I'll leave you with this App recommendation :
