There are many types of competition. Some are individualistic, such as winning a race or completing a project. Some are institutional, such as winning an award or becoming a champion. But monopolistic competition is the kind of competition which stems from one party controlling more than half of a marketplace. This is typically a monopoly because each party is attempting to dominate the market.
The term “monopoly” is widely used in economics to describe one of the most common forms of market dominance. However, the term is not entirely accurate.
A monopoly is a market dominated by a single firm. In a monopoly situation, this firm has an exclusive ability to charge the market the largest prices. A monopoly can exist in a competitive market, where two or more firms are competing for a certain product or service. However, a monopoly does not always occur in competition. For example, in the movie industry, studios might have a monopoly over the movie market, but the film industry cannot exist without the studios.
A monopoly only exists in the context of competition. If two firms are competing to set the highest price for a product or service, then they have a monopoly in that particular market. In a monopoly situation, one firm is the highest bidder and can set the highest price, and the other firms cannot compete. And even if they could compete, they would be outbid in the end because the other firms have the ability to charge the lowest price.
But there are more than two firms competing to set the price. Not only are there more than two firms competing to set the highest price, but there are millions of firms competing for the same product or service. As the film industry is built on the backs of the studios, so the film industry is built on the backs of more and more firms.
A monopolist is someone who has control over enough of a market to be able to set their prices for a certain market. A monopolist is also someone with the ability to set the prices for all the firms competing for a certain product or service.
The movie business has been built on the backs of more and more firms because of the large number of people that work on films. There are more people working in film today than there were in the 1920s because of the expansion of the movie industry. As a result, there are more people involved in film and more competition.
For the last 50 years or so, many industries have been built on the backs of more and more firms.

This is a good thing.
In the early 1930s, when the U.S. movie industry was still small and relatively unknown, there were only 15 companies making movies at any given time. Today there are more than 1,600 companies and hundreds of thousands of people involved in film production. Even though the industry has grown, it still employs less people than it did 50 years ago.
