I think people may be investing more into physical media as censorship increases in the west. People are starting to realize the importance of preserving these old films

How many players are selling? That's the indicator of the future and the health of the industry. Unless people are using them for coasters, it is the same people just buying more and that may be sales growth but if the players aren't selling...its the addicts keeping everything afloat. Which is fine for now. Currently, out of the many people I asked around me, few people over 30 have a player. If they do, it is their gaming system. Few of the them own films. Nobody I spoke with under 25 had a player or purchased films. I also notice how the big box stores are starting to cut back on their selection of players. So, do we have those numbers?

This figure is totally invalid because it includes "helpers", a fun way to say "criminals".
