Cinemas are the answer. But who would pay to watch a Nollywood movie in a Cinema when they can get it cheap in Alaba for #100?

Well I think until the 'general masses' with the same we-want-it-for-free-or-almost-nothing mindset changes, films will never make their money back in 'Nigeria' coupled with the fact we need a ton more cinemas. Simple truth... foreign markets is where it's at... even Hollywood doesn't make its money back in just the US.
