Piracy and new content creation: a Bollywood story (2014)

Instead of simply measuring volume of all content created, I would like to see a measure of high quality content created. I think that sharing of high quality content leads to a higher demand for it, while sharing of low quality content leads to lower demand. So things like the practice of putting a single good song on an album would overall decrease demand, showing an overall drop in revenue for those companies.

Now I'd really like to know what Hollywood/US distributors did differently to win in large numbers despite the piracy, which affected Bollywood.

They obviously made the megaplex "going to the movies" experience more attractive. This helped Bollywood. Was this all?

Fascinating.
