has announced the addition of the "Digital Cinema - Issues and
Opportunities from Red to Blu" report to their offering.

July 7, 2008, Cupertino, California - It has been three years
since the Digital Cinema Initiative (DCI) published recommendations
for how distributors and theaters should handle movies distributed and
exhibited digitally. The recommendations have since turned into
standards and the Digital Cinema industry went through a burst of
activity and growth. There are now over 6,300 digital screens
worldwide and major movies are now distributed digitally as well as
with film.

But, there are well over 100,000 screens worldwide and the
industry has hit a momentary pause as it tries to figure out how to
step into the next phase. As with any complex system involving
hundreds of companies and dozens of steps, people began to uncover a
few things along the way that needed to be addressed to make things
run smoothly. The DCI recommendations are now at version 1.2,
incorporating hundreds of errata created in the beginning years. Some
of these revisions affect the equipment that early adopters have
already installed.
