Macrovision sponsored a recent Consumer Home Piracy market research survey (.pdf) in the US and UK, and guess what they discovered? People copy movies and TV shows! Big surprise...

Benchmark Reviews has broken down the survey's info and made a nice story out of it with some interesting findings. Roughly 1/3 of computer users admitted to copying pre-recorded movies and TV shows at least once in a 6-month period. The usual suspects are guys aged 18-24.

The only real difference between US and UK pirates is the UK crew is prone to copying more TV shows. Fancy that!
