According to research firm iSuppli, mobile phone content will total 20B USD this year.

Now, I want to put this in PERSPECTIVE. According to the MPAA: total US theatrical boxoffice (movies) for 2006 totaled USD 9.49 billion. The GLOBAL take was 25.82 billion USD. So the entire theatrical movie revenues, are about 25% more than the mobile entertainment biz. The theatrical business started around 1910 or so and the mobile business... 1999?

iSuppli predicts that new services, namely mobile video, will take the industry up to 44 billion by 2011. They expect a large growth spurt from India and Brazil especially.

According to iSuppli, "Data now represents nearly 20 percent of revenue for the top 20 mobile operators in the world. Those that get more than 30 percent of their revenue from data are SK Telecom, and i-mode adopters NTT DoCoMo and Telefonica's O2".

The MOBILE ENTERTAINMENT PODCAST & BLOG returns!  I have been diverted slightly but am anxious to catch up on all the amazing things that are happening in this space.  There is a lot to talk about and I will be publishing new podcasts in the coming days...  iPhone, YouTube on mobile, the wrecks at Amp'd Mobile and other MVNO's - It's a long list! I have been immersed in a different kind of mobile entertainment, introducing "Participation TV" (or "Text TV") to the US market. 

I have been working for client ACTIVE LOOP TELEVISION (Norway) to create and launch TEXT-ME TV in the US. We did a regional test in Michigan, and I am developing a national syndication rollout for the fall. To see clips of the show, visit:
