not even the crystal ball knows the future,

There is little I don't know about dvds cashmagnet.

I look at the future of DVDs and see competing disc technologies to replace them, I look at the usefulness of DVDs at home - hard drives replace recorders now pretty much sub £150 is easy to find, broadband will deliver films in the near future (it can already, check out BT site to see their plans) in real time on demand for a subscription.

DVDs are so passe.

So, having established a little, why would anyone want to invest in DVD technology these days?

20 mins to go, are we gonna have another huge drop in last few mins?

[macca28] 23/1/2007 12:53

[aerotus] 23/1/2007 12:50

wow even jacob has woken up at last. Welcome to reality old boy.

[aerotus] 23/1/2007 12:44

maybe they meant the next leap year.

[macca28] 23/1/2007 12:40

seems a long time 2008, maybe they mean financial year?

[macca28] 23/1/2007 12:36

i think they have already shown us most of the loss in the first half,

[aerotus] 23/1/2007 12:32

only a 1.7 mil loss eh. Pocket change!

Generate revenues early next year in 2008? Sounds promising! If the company is still solvent by then.

Pay as you go contracts. Good flexibility then!... for the customers that is.

2007 Zoo Digital Group
Forecast change
We have cut our forecasts for the current year following ZOO's confirmation that Christmas sales of interactive DVDs, although up overall against 2005, were well below expectations. We now expect the group to make a pre-tax loss of £1.7m in 2006/07, an EPS loss of 33.3p (previous estimates were a profit of £0.3m and EPS 0.6p respectively). This news does however underline the logic behind the decision to close the group's iDVD publishing business ZOO Interactive Video, last October, to refocus resources entirely upon the ZOOtech technology division. The move potentially improves the group revenue profile, replacing quite volatile, seasonal Christmas sales with more predictable, recurring revenues from the use of its unique DVD authoring tools. In particular, ZOOtech has secured two pay-as-you-go contracts with a major Hollywood studio which start to generate revenues early next year.
