Media/Entertainment books (Originally Posted: 02/26/2008)
Any good books on the media/entertainment business? I am trying to read up and build my knowledge in this sector.
i would suggest reading industry publications such as adweek, mediaweek, adage, variety etc. pick a couple of companies in each subsector - conglomerates, ad agencies, broadcasting, newspapers, magazines etc., and read their k's to understand what drives their business. there is a lot of activity in the sector so make sure to stay on top of all the news.
Movie Money: Understanding Hollywood's (Creative) Accounting Practices
The Feature Film Distribution Deal: A Critical Analysis of the Single Most Important Film Industry Agreement
Entertainment Industry Economics: A Guide for Financial Analysis
I checked these on the web, and do not have a lot of reviews available.

Hi guys,
So I've just finished "The Long Tail" by Chris Andersen and thought it was a really good read. I was wondering if you guys have any other books recommendations on Media/Telcom. Feel free to add/share why you like those books here too. Many thanks
