Pew Study: File Traders Don't Care About Copyright

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the related-study-finds-sugar-is-sweet dept.

An anonymous reader writes "A recent poll by the Pew Internet and American Life Project focused on that portion of the file trading community that is over 18. The major finding is that two-thirds of all file traders in this age bracket are not concerned about violating copyright laws. This remained consistant even when they split up the respondents by sex, income, and race."

    Your creativity has not been hurt one bit by the fact that Mickey cannot be used commercially by non-Disney entities.
