I said in a comment that I'd check how many times Oldham Library's copy of Atlas Shrugged has been borrowed. The answer is three times since 2008.

Yes, they'll buy DVDs to watch in the resort with the private cabins, each with its private swimming pool.

I think there are lots of supporters from slightly less affluent demographic groups.

Sorry, I was making an allusion to something in Rand's FOUNTAINHEAD. When most resorts were big hotels with one big central swimming pool, the hero designed one (for modest income people) with private cabins and separate pools.

My point was that many of her fans might prefer to watch the movie in their homes rather than as part of a crowd in a theatre.

Could be. I don't remember that bit about the individual pools and cabins from The Fountainhead, but it's been a long time since I read it.
