Aprox $25000 for the rights to play a movie. X Kgs of electrical equipment to be carried around which leads to extra fuel burn (fuel is v v expensive!). The vast majority of pax have their own source of in flight entertainment these days (iPad etc) and I can therefore understand why the IFE has been offloaded to save costs rather than cater for the minority!
