Illegal downloaders, “undeterred”

A new survey found that despite recent legal action against online piracy, many downloaders remain undeterred and see no threat at all.

“It’s hard to get blood from a stone,” said one of the persons interviewed for the Edentify report, conducted using an open online forum.

In order to qualify participants had to be willing to admit to illegally downloading movies or music.

58 out of 100 participants admitted to either never or only sometimes paying for content. There was little sympathy for the music and screenindustries.
