Quite innacurate and narrow. Many movies don't make the weekend. You will see them at some stores for 1 dollar one month later. It's not the users who kill the industry.
Actually, in this era more and more tv shows are made because they're a better format than movies and because they're attracting people to consume or pay services. Movies will never dissapear, only the worth making movies will make it and that task would be decided, not by people, but by a middleman.
There's more and more music today than ever, and it doesn't cost 20 dollars or require to be in an store to be accessible to anyone.

The problem: you want to see a number, like "he sold 20 millons cds". Well, the last sucess history (everyone can't be queen or lady gaga) is Daft Punk: they sold millions of songs by making 'good' music, or music that appealed to people.
