Video entertainment is the single most valuable part of the UK's audiovisual sector, providing content to suit every taste, age and lifestyle. Video entertainment is distributed on physical and digital formats, from DVD, Blu-ray Discs and 3D Blu-ray Discs through to digital TV-based and web-based internet services, available to rent or to own portable devices and for home consumption.

The industry releases about 7,000 titles a year, from film and television, music video, sport and fitness, children's and special interest. In 2012 including all digital and physical retail sales, plus physical rental transactions, consumers spent an estimated £2.317billion on video entertainment in the UK. This enables the sector to contribute more to the finance of film and television content than any other single revenue source.
