Try looking through back issues of the trade publication Home Media Retailing. I believe they publish detailed consumer research reports on DVD and video rentals. You should be able to request copies through an interlibrary loan.

You could also check to see if there's anything on LexisNexis AlaCarte.

Hi danielc. Try these sites. It looks like they may have some of what you need:

Good luck,

Daniel, consider spending some time with www.googleguide.com to learn how to get the most from Google. Very few people (not including Andrew) seem to know how to use search engines effectively. Those who do just might end up ruling the world!

Good luck!

I concur with the www.emarketer.com suggestion, join their mailing list and you will know far more than you ever imagined...*laughs*

Also, you may wish to try: http://www.mediapost.com/research/cfmr_reports.cfm they also put out research reports to die for about everything under the sun.

You may also wish to check out industry media, such as, www.indiescene.net which is a Movie Marketing Industry Blog with newsletter available.

Richard Menta's website:http://www.mp3newswire.net/stories/2004/moviedownloads.html offers some great statistics that include the DVD online rental industry and with a 2004 date on the posting, it makes for an interesting quick read. On his site, Richard references NPD's report on the subject and if you wish to purchase the material you can go directly to:www.npd.com and work on ordering it yourself. You may also wish to visit:http://npd.com/dynamic/releases/press_050726.html For their July 26, 2005, press release on the video industry topic. They have a whole division doing research weekly on your topic of choice.

Good Luck to You,

Bonnie L. Buchanan,
