[Closed] Anonymous Survey

OK that really was quick and easy. Well under a minute

Took about thirty seconds. As I've never downloaded pirated music, it was a no-brainer, really. 🙂

Done, Ive never down loaded any music/ films with out paying though, can't see it as any different to taking stuff from a shop.

You may want to look at whether you want to find out the effects of the illegal downloading or you're trying to find out how people's habits have been affected by it.

I'm thinking your results may be slightly skewed as people are more likely to answer the survey if they have never downloaded illegally.

Who are you and what are you doing with this information?

It's bad enough with cold calls so please see current thread. You're not really any different are you? 😕

...can't see it as any different to taking stuff from a shop.

When you take a product from shop, you deprive a paying customer and the seller of that product. If someone downloads a song that they had absolutely no intention of purchasing, no one has actually lost anything.

@trucker - you are depriving the musician of revenue he his legally entitled to

FWIW I know a few musicians, members of smaller bands but who play professionally, that think music downloads should be free as that outs the emphasis back on live performance which people pay for.

Survey done, I've never downloaded any music illegally but I do think in today's world it's way too expensive

Looking at your connection details I'm presuming this is for a high school project, yes?

I think on that basis we'll make an exception and say we're ok with this thread remaining for now. For future reference though, it'd be appreciated if you'd ask first before just creating an account and posting off-topic surveys.

Also, I'll forewarn you that you're probably about to spark an argument on here about the ethics of illegal downloads. Whether or not this is in any way helpful to you, well...

The last question is a bit odd.

It asks about the music industry. If I'd had the option my answer to this would have been split with it harming the commercial side of the music industry but having little impact on the creative aspects of the industry.

Really big thanks to all you guys who filled it out! Got 28 so far! And for those asking I'm just a 6th form student at a Stafford high school and I need the information for the 'unit 3' section of my course where I have to investigate a hypothesis.

4. Have you ever visited a music piracy website?
5. If your answer to question 4 was yes, then how often?

Man just give him his 75 survey results, then he'll stop posting this...

Carrot?

Done. What's a "music piracy website"? No idea.

Google at a guess would qualify as one 😉

I think it's where you can download such classics as "yo ho ho and a bottle of rum".

wonder if all the people who have never downloaded music because it's wrong copied a tape of a friend.

"Home taping is killing music!"

No, asking twenty quid for an album and then giving 40p of it back to the artist is killing music, you grubbing bastards.

Which, incidentally, reminds me of this.

House.
