projected using a digital projector instead of a conventional film projector. Digital cinema
encompasses every aspect of the movie making process, from production and post-production
to distribution and projection. A digitally produced or digitally converted movie can be
distributed to theaters via satellite, physical media,or fiber optic networks.

Uses:
The main advantage of digital
technology (such as a HYPERLINK
"http://entertainment.howstuffworks.
com/cd.htm" CD ) is that it can store,
transmit and retrieve a huge amount
of information exactly as it was
originally recorded.
¤ The films used in analog cinemas
(based on vinyl records) degrade
with time, but digital images do not.
And even if a DVD is scratched, it
could easily be backed up in a hard
disk or another DVD.
Addition/deletion of scenes after the
movies have been released is
easier/cheaper with Digital cinemas.
