The emerging Arab media and entertainment market...

Cable television is undergoing worldwide expansion, especially in the Arab world. 

I have previously spoken on The Second Sight about "cultural crossover content", in other words, the growing market for, say Bollywood movies, in western countries including the United states - first from immigrant and first generation Indian Americans - followed by the trend towards becoming part of mainstream culture.   See NYT's article on the  red carpet, New York opening for the recent Bollywood release, Guru. American children take globalization for granted.  Japanese anime is as much a part of their pop culture as it is to children in Japan.

I firmly believe this trend towards "cultural crossover content" will increase as the game generation ages and media firms continue to exploit emerging foreign markets.  I have highlighted some of this under the catagory (of the same name) here at The Second Sight.

More specific to this entry's title, I was recently informed of a wonderful Arab media and entertainment link sahafa.com .  More on that market later.
