摘要

本論文研究目的為對美國電影產業策略變化，以六個不同科技時期變化下，並進一步分析產業供給面的廠商家數、競爭者情況、產業價值鏈變化；及需求面的消費者組成變化、觀看的電影內容變化等構面，來看探討美國電影產業策略變化。

從中，找出科技變化下美國電影產業策略變化，其中變與不變的關鍵因素各為何，並再推論至數位及網路科技下，美國電影產業未來可能的新商業模式，本研究結論如下：

1. 新科技變化下確實讓美國電影產業的現有主要廠商受到影響，甚至經營權易手。現今，市佔率九成以上的領導廠商仍未變，因為其所以全球發行體系所建立的進入障礙，並非新進者能克服所致。

2. 新科技變化下主要影響是電影製片環節，則觀眾所接收的電影內容明顯改變；新科技變化下主要影響電影發行環節，會讓觀眾所接收的電影內容會間接改變。

3. 電影需求面的觀看電影消費者組成的改變，有些是因新科技影響電影價值鏈的電影發行環節，有些則是不可抗力的因素。

4. 新科技變化對美國電影產業的策略影響，為從垂直整合的片廠制走向專業分工的彈性專案制，電影廠商之間從競爭模式到合作模式。

5. 數位及網路科技下可能的新商業模式，提高消費者的願付價格，增加消費者盜版成本為關鍵。
