| Open source cinema occurs when a film is made available online for
| anyone to edit. Take Stray Cinema. Founded by a New Zealander,
| Michelle Hughes, last year, it allows people to download and edit
| footage from a short film she shot in London. Anyone is free to
| make a new version of her film and give it alternative scenes
| and endings.

| Several feature-length open-source films have already appeared
| online, including Cactuses, a drama about youth culture in
| southern California, and Boy Who Never Slept, a comedy about
| online dating. Both were made by amateur filmmakers with tiny
| budgets - and it shows. Yet, thanks to the growing affordability
| of digital cameras and editing software, more people will be
| enticed and the quality of movies should improve.

| You talk to any start-up company, and literally 100% are using
| open-source platforms. And you know, 20 years from now, these
| companies will be the new Dells and Compaqs. Microsoft and
| Oracle might have delayed the transformation to open source,
| but this thing is inevitable.
