What's confusing is that a couple years ago, in a report about the Britain's game sales surpassing music at retail, the UK's Entertainment Retailers' Association claimed movies had been stuck at £2.1 billion in sales for the past few years. When compared to the UK Film Council's reported figures, this would imply there was a significant £1 billion drop. At this point, we're not exactly sure how the movie numbers were calculated or if the Telegraph's data doesn't count some film industry subset, like the porn industry -- which would likely explain how a billion pounds just goes missing.
