Aimed at different business courses, the poll investigated industry pricing, views towards downloading music legally and illegally, demographics, and litigation threats. While not fully generalisable, the results indicate that music piracy is widespread across U.S. campuses. The study also delves into forecasting methods used by E-Commerce firms, revealing a preference for non-quantitative techniques and assessing the accuracy of sales forecasts. Legal implications surrounding music piracy and the liability of servers or software distributors are also discussed, highlighting ongoing legal debates and industry responses.
