TyP kerkisi jo listoille. Mutta ei olisi paha vaikka kaksi Suomalaista piraattiliittoa olisi listoilla. Osoittaisi aktiivista asennetta Suomessa.

Piraattiliitossa on potentiaalia

Growing Use

Out of 47 million digital music households in the U.S., one member from each downloaded, ripped, burned, played or uploaded online digital music last year, according to a report by the NPD Group. Some 15 million of the total number of households downloaded at least one music file from P2P sites, a slower 8 percent rate of growth than that recorded in previous years, which is notable given the growing number of digital music users, as well as increasing broadband access and use of digital video, according to Russ Crupnick, vice president and entertainment industry analyst for the NPD Group.

"Legal a la carte downloads were the fastest growing digital music category in 2006," Crupnick said. "Unfortunately, for music labels, the volume of music files purchased legally is swamped by the sheer volume of files being traded illegally, whether on P2P or burned CDs sourced from borrowed files."

The number of music files downloaded from P2P sites (5 billion) grew 47 percent year-over-year and still dwarfed that from authorized sites (500 million), which grew 56 percent, according to the NPD report.
