Musics download is disadvantageous for cd-sale
Downloading the of music via internet and the burning of cds is clear of influence on the cd-sale. That concludes exported Edison Media Research in an investigation for the vakblad Radio & Records. They make short work with the supposition that men that many download really yet many money spend at legal musiccd's. The investigation addressed on 12- until 44-birthday in America.
“Some men [in the investigation] say indeed that they music have learn know and the cd's be will buy after the downloading, but these 'profit' is annulled through the drop in the cd-sale through the downloading and burn of illegal copies”, says Jane Charneski of Edison Media.
That comes according to the researchers because the large downloaders right Tue men its that previously many cd's bought. Approximately 16 per cent of the bevraagden hears at home in this group. They gave at that they in the past year 11.3 cd's bought. That is 61 per cent lower than the year for it.
61 per Cent of the 12- until 17-birthday told the researchers that they a cd of someone else copyden instead of the cd self to buy. Naturally remains the question or has to give this kapitaal arm group in any case many money from at cd's.
At the other side appeared the bevraagden also more sensitively for the disadvantages of the downloading, say the researchers. The haves of the Americas between 12 and 44 finds the downloading of music “morale been wrong”. That is 11 per cent more than in 2002.
The investigation yielded further yet jumble interesting we. As bought 8 per cent of the 12 until 17-years and 10 per cent of the 18 until 24-birthday a particular cd because they the music learned know via a computer game. And source news for the RIAA: their proposed campaign a warning on the screen of downloaders to let appeared, would have effect. 33 per Cent of the bevraagden gave to know that they their p2p-software would close as they a such errand to see would get.
The results of Edison Media lie rule in the same as the conclusions of the IFPI. In April reported the organization that there in 2002 , 6 per cent less music-cd' s became sold, a drop that according to IFPI on the bill of internet and cd-burners to write was.,
