Canadian Music Industry Says Downloading Declining

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the quality-has-nothing-to-do-with-it dept.

An anonymous reader writes "A new survey conducted by a Canadian music collective that counts the recording industry as one of its members has found that music downloading has declined dramatically in Canada. The survey found that only 14 percent of Canadians download, down from 21 percent in 2002. The survey also found that P2P is rarely a reason for people who purchase less music."

    don't forget how we like to go on irc and message forums and remind everyone that we are superior to americans...

    oh yes,mod me flamebait, but 99% of all flamewars are canadians telling americans "hey, you're an american, your opinion is sinking in the ocean because my superior canadian intellect sunk it"
