Good News in Hollywood. Shhh.

By ROSS JOHNSON

Ross JOHNSON

Motion Picture Assn of America refuses to reveal how much money Hollywood studios make on legitimate foreign sales of home video, including DVD's, VCD's and VHS tapes, which are believed to be fastest-growing part of Hollywood's business; most reliable estimate comes from Screen Digest, which calculates that home video divisions of US studios garnered $11.4 billion in wholesale revenues from $24.6 billion that overseas consumers spent buying and renting home video products in 2004; windfall from overseas sales is affecting how movie business is run, inflating budgets for films with big international potential, changing how top stars negotiate their take of profits and prompting studios to spend millions fighting piracy that they fear will threaten lucrative developing markets; question of how to share DVD windfall has become sore subject in studios' negotiations with unions representing writers, directors and actors; photos (M)
