it does not have to be substantial amounts of money, remember the middle men are being cut out of the equation
fox only paid american idol 4 commercial spots out of 26 they got from airing the show
13 million dollars in revenue (500k X 26) only 2 million goes to the original producer
product placement money does not nor will will ever replace the entire lost revenue generated by sharing
but by taking product placement they made more money over all ( 4X650k) became (4X500k +3 million)
it a revenue shift with the loses happening to the distributor of the content.
If i were to shoot a scene for your dvd you would not give me all the money you made of the retail selling price (divided by the number of scenes) content producers are getting paid very little in the distribution channel (according to piracy panel 3k per scene)
what is going to happen to the industry content producers are going to make more money
(ie 1k for content + 5k in product placement)
to hell with the greedy content distributors who want to make 1 million dollars from 30 k worth of content.
IT all about reaching the number of viewers, so if the cost of advertising on a tube site is 3x and the cost of product placement is x of course they will choose to product placement, shifting money from one place to another, of course tube sites/torrents will not care since they will be legally authorized to distribute the content because an advertiser has paid for that right to have that content view.
