- 02Nov2009 Slate.fr, current affairs webzine Slate's French sister site, points out in this article entitled "Pirates spend more on music" a report by BBC news citing the results of a survey about piracy among more than 1000 people commissioned by Demos researchers. This online poll has found that people who admit downloading music through illegal file-sharing spend nearly twice as much as those who claim they do not and that current price of music files is far higher than what customers are willing to pay. Websites (including peer-to-peer systems and streaming services) visited by music listeners are also explored.
- 2009/09 - A study realized between January and March 2009 in 12 countries among 6500 Internet users by IPSOS Allemagne shows that French Internet users are not the World Champions of illegal downloading. This study also shows that in Germany "pirates are better consumers of "legal" culture than the German Internet users who don't donwload illegally.

- This note realized
- Cette note de synthèse réalisée par Môle armoricain de recherche sur la société de l'information et les usages d'internet (M@RSOUIN) présente les principaux résultats d’une enquête sur la consommation de vidéos (plus largement sur la consommation de contenus audiovisuels) sur Internet. On s’attachera ici plus particulièrement à une vision statistique de la consommation de vidéos en ligne. Conclusion des auteurs de l'étude, "Les individus qui téléchargent des vidéos sur les réseaux P2P sont également ceux qui achètent le plus de DVD.".
- A study conducted in late 2008 by the Norwegian School of Management BI (Norwegian version is here) cited by ars technica on 20Apr2009 shows that "the people who use unpaid downloading have ten times the consumption of paid downloads than those who do not use unpaid downloading".
- This study commissioned by the Canadian Ministry of Industry in 2006-2007 finds "no direct evidence to suggest that the net effect of P2P file-sharing on CD purchasing is either positive or negative for Canada as a whole" but that, on the contrary, "among Canadians actually engaged in it, P2P file-sharing increases CD purchasing"
