Subject/Type: Piracy
Focus: Music
Country/Territory: United States of America
Objective: To explore attitudes and opinions regarding music downloading and sharing.
Sample: 642 13-18 year olds
Methodology: Online survey

Main Findings

66% of American teenagers oppose fining individuals who offer copyrighted music online for other people to download, compared to 13% who believe that they should be fined. Teen boys and girls are equally likely to oppose the fines.

78% believe that sharing downloaded music should be legal and 74% believe that downloading of music should be legal. 80% of respondents have downloaded music in the past year, but only 34% have paid for it. The top two reasons for music downloading are: because they "only like one or two songs on a CD" (59%) and because they want to "get music quickly" (48%).
