Re: The MPAA has more of a beef
Monsters Inc.'s production budget was $115 million. A tad higher than Mariah Carey, and she is one of the rare exceptions in regards to production costs. Most albums have a pretty low production budget all things considered. I would say the cost to make an album would be less than one million dollars in regards to standard artist advances, engineering and studio time, mastering and glass master pressing, art design, etc. Plus you don't see television commercials all over the place for all of the label artists nor do you see the kind of advertising the film industry does. I believe these and other considerations should balance out the comparison between movie options and CD options. |
