"The Effect of File Sharing on Record Sales: An Empirical Analysis" (. pdf file), a new study from two professors at UNC and Harvard Business School , finds that internet downloading of copyrighted, commercial materials did not harm sales during the study's timeframe.

The study tracked downloads of a specific group of songs, then checked them against their sales figures.

"Downloads have an effect on sales which is statistically indistinguishable from zero."

study


Downloading files down sharply: new
study
01/06/2004 01:02 PM

Americans are downloading fewer files from the internet, according to a new report from the Pew Internet and American Life Project .

The study, conducted with comScore Media Metrix , found that the number of people downloading files has dropped by nearly one half. The number of peer-to-peer file-sharing applications running on computers has declined as well.

A new nationwide phone survey of 1,358 Internet users from November 18-December 14 by the Pew Internet & American Life Project showed that the percentage of music file downloaders had fallen to 14% (about 18 million users) from 29% (about 35 million) when the Project last reported on downloading from a survey conducted during March 12-19 and April 29-May 20. On an average day during the spring survey, 4% of Internet users said they downloaded files. In the November-December survey just 1% said they were downloading files on any given day during the survey period.

The recording industry's subpoena campaign played a role in the decisions. Conversely, legitimate downloading services have seen increased usage, such as iTunes and college-linked Napster 2.0 . Additionally, alternative filesharing applications may be on the rise.

A recent New Yorker magazine story on Egypt (full text online from link) contains the following passage:

Ibrahim taught Arabic literature at Berkeley in 1998, an experience that evidently did not suit him. “I despised the total individualism, the control of multinationals, the manipulation of the media over the ordinary person, the values of life, just living to eat, drink, fuck, have a car, and that’s all,” he said. “There are no moral values, no broad-minded attitudes toward life in general or a sense of what is happening in the world, no sense of the role America is playing in trying to control the resources of the world.” Perhaps what irked him most, he said, was “the genuine stupidity of the normal American citizen. He is ignorant. He doesn’t know what his own country is doing in the world. The U.S. is following the same policy of racism as the Nazis. Do I really have to explain something to you that is so well known everywhere?”

Ibrahim's "genuine stupidity" observation certainly adds some weight to the Bell Curve thesis (see below).  But suffering through the horrible weather here in Boston as I do mostly it cheers me to find out that there is anyone who manages to resist the lures of California.

[The very last part of the article is also worth reading, about an Egyptian kid who believes himself involved in a "clash of civilizations" where the West is trying to destroy Islam.  A big fan of September 11th and Al-Qaeda, he is confident that Islam will destroy the West first, which seems odd.  The belief system holds simultaneously that (a) the U.S. is completely immoral, (b) the U.S. is involved in a kill-or-be-killed war to the death with Muslims, and (c) the U.S. won't simply unload its warehouses full of nuclear weapons on the heads of Egyptians, et al.  If the U.S. were truly as evil as these guys say, W. and Co. would just use our leftover nukes to kill all the people in every country where Al-Qaeda recruits and then come back a few years later to pump out the oil.  And yet the fact that they are still alive and well in Cairo would seem to demonstrate that the U.S. is not completely immoral.  You would think that, at a minimum, the U.S. and W. would get credit from "the Arab Street" for the continued existence of "the Arab Street."]

Harvard hosts a debate on whether or not
IT Is done
04/09/2004 04:11 PM

Apropos the mournful postings below on the state of IT... On Wednesday May 19 Harvard at 12:30 Eastern Time is hosting a debate on the question "Does IT Matter?"  I plan to attend (via telephone).  Because it is the business school the debate is priced for those who are already rich and/or work for the rich.  And because it is the business school the focus of the debate is probably going to be "does IT matter to profit-seeking corporations?"  I might try to get a few words in edgewise about how IT might be more transformative for poor countries than for rich countries.  In the U.S. we have magnificent roads, stores everywhere, and seemingly 3 SUVs per citizen.  So being able to do a transaction electronically isn't that much of a time-saver.  Someone in the Third World who has to ride a chicken bus over a terrible road for an entire day is going to appreciate being able to do a transaction from his local Internet cafe a lot more than someone who only saved a 10-minute ride in his Cadillac Escalade.

Warner Music Tries (And Fails) To Make
Friends With Music Bloggers
08/16/2004 06:48 AM
MP3 blogs have been getting a lot of attention lately. The blogs, which usually focus on certain genres of music with the idea to highlight or expose certain new or obscure acts to a wider audience are growing in popularity. They often post an entire MP3 as well. However, it appears that some of the attention directed at these blogs made it to some executives at Warner Brothers Records. In a moment of enlightenment (considering typical record company reaction), instead of trying to shut these sites down, they decided to see what would happen if they embraced them. Someone from Warner contacted a number of these blogs, including an MP3 from a band they wanted to promote. This is somewhat surprising, as many of the sites certainly expected to get sued before they received MP3s from a major label. Still, the effort had its problems. The musician had already been featured months ago on some of the sites, and didn't fit at all with the focus of some of the other sites. Plus, the fear of looking like record company lackeys didn't appeal to many of the sites. Even worse, though, was that on the one site that did post the tracks, a number of out-of-place comments began appearing talking about how "awesome" the band was. A quick check of the IP addresses of the posters, though, showed they came from... Warner Brothers. So, while it's really great that they're actually trying to embrace these sorts of promotions, they still need to learn a thing or two about dealing with bloggers. Still, it's clearly a step forward from an industry that hasn't made many steps in that direction recently.

  • NY Post: Apple Tunes Up. Under the terms of some of the deals, the prices for some of the most popular singles could rise to $1.25, according to sources familiar with the negotiations. Songs have previously been priced at 99 cents across the board.
  • And, apparently, album prices will rise even higher than the CDs cost in stores. Now there's a way to encourage buyers. Let's see. Charging more on a medium where the manufacturing costs are zero -- now that's a way to encourage sales. Brilliant.
