LAS VEGAS — Well, that went over like a lead balloon.
Screening Room, Napster and Facebook co-founder Sean Parker's proposal to bring new ****** into homes for $50 — the same day they hit theaters — got a round of loud boos and hisses this week from the biggest of bigwigs at CinemaCon.
News of Parker's business model*leaked last month (http://mashable.com/2016/03/09/sean-parker-******-at-home/), right before the annual convention of Hollywood studios and cinema owners, who for some time have been fussing over theatrical ******* — that traditionally 90-day period between a film's first appearance in theaters and its home video debut.
