[I]"In its new "Digital Music Report 2009," international industry trade group IFPI estimates that 40 billion files were "illegally file-shared" last year, "giving a piracy rate of around 95 percent."
95 percent? How could any industry make anything in such a climate, much less post a 25 percent worldwide gain in digital downloads and $3.7 billion in revenue? If true, it would appear that the opening of the Seven Seals has begun, the moon is in the process of turning to blood, and the pale horse is champing at the bit in his stall; the music apocalypse is indeed upon us.
Until one flips over a few pages. In the same report, we find a discussion of how IFPI's antipiracy team has "an excellent track record" and has "helped contain the level of Internet piracy." Clearly, "containing" piracy at 95 percent would be an abject failure, so IFPI must be referring to something else, as indeed it is.
According to a further study, only 18 percent of Internet users in Europe actually share files illegally. IFPI suggests that this number has remained constant even as broadband penetration has soared from 5 to 42 percent over the last few years, but it's hard to see what this could mean. With the rate of file-swapping remaining steady, IFPI's own numbers actually suggest that file-swapping has soared."[/I]
