Or perhaps you could say that it was the absence of legal alternatives in the early 2000s, before music downloading had become “ingrained,” that conditioned people to be cool with illegal downloading, or that perhaps people grew tired of spending $20 on shiny discs when all they wanted was one or two songs, or any number of alternative theories. The study would seem to indicate a sort of resignation at the BPI, saying that “the absence of any effective action to prevent unauthorised downloading has led to this behaviour becoming ingrained as part of everyday leisure activity.” This, despite the fact that there’s more fully legal digital music serves in the UK than anywhere else on the planet. In other words, fully three-quarters of songs downloaded in the UK in 2010 were downloaded illegally. Unless your name is Alistair Overeem you have no business listening to that song.
