File-sharers are big spenders too

Post by Sabre »

BBC article.
People who download music illegally also spend an average of £77 a year buying it legitimately, a survey has found.
Those who claimed not to use peer-to-peer filesharing sites such as The Pirate Bay spent a yearly average of just £44.
Reinforces what I have thought for years: Price it appropriately and let people share and you will make more money!

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.
