Thanks to advances in digital entertainment and advertising, U.S. entertainment and media spending in 2010 was up 3 percent to US$433 billion, which makes it the first increase in the past three years, according to the latest report by PricewaterhouseCoopers, "Global Entertainment and Media Outlook: 2011-2015," USA Today reported.
Global entertainment and media (E&M) spending is expected to increase from $1.4 trillion in 2010 to $1.9 trillion by 2015, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.7 percent, the report states.
In the United States alone, the E&M market is expected to rise from $443 billion in 2010 to $555 billion in 2015, with a CAGR of 4.6 percent.
