Abstract: The main goal of this paper is to explain the clear asymmetry that exists between the global evolution of Brazilian families' consumption after monetary stability and the performance of three particular cultural goods: movie, music and books. The data show that there is a clear ascendant trajectory in the first case while in the second the movement is in the best case stable and descendent in the most cases. The suggested explanation combines three different elements: a change in the pattern of consumption of durable goods together with a change in income distribution, a change in the type of sociability that the new consumption pattern has provoked, and specific events of these three markets, which raised the number of substituted goods.
