New Study: Illegal File Sharers Are the Big Spenders when it Comes to Buying Music

They spend almost twice as much on music than the ‘honest’ music listeners, new poll shows It’s been quite a while now since the music industry (with consistent support from the government) has tried to convince us all that file sharers are to blame for their losses and there’s been no benefit from those who download content via p2p networks altogether. Now a new poll in UK tells an entirely different story (as others have, previously). According to the report conducted by Ipsos Mori, people who admit to downloading music illegally spend an average of £77 a year on music which is £33 more than those who say they never grab music from illegal file sharing sites.
