The Government has today published its fifth wave study into the extent of online copyright infringement by broadband ISP and mobile data consumers, which estimates that 18% of UK Internet users aged 12+ (7.8 million people) had consumed at least one item of “illegal<\/em>” online content and 6% “exclusively consumed illegal content<\/em>“.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The new report, which was funded by the UK Intellectual Property Office (IPO) and carried out by Kantar Media<\/strong>, is actually the “fifth wave<\/em>” of a related consumer research study that first began in 2012 (here<\/a>) as part of a requirement handed down by the Government’s troubled Digital Economy Act 2010<\/strong> (DEAct).<\/p>\n

Overall more than 4,500 people<\/strong> were surveyed for the report via various different forms of communication (phone, online etc.) and the news seems to suggest the consumption of both legal and “illegal<\/em>” content (although we think unlawful might be a better word) seems to have increased. But the picture is mixed.<\/p>\n

Overall Volumes of Illegal Content Consumed W5<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Music Tracks \u2013 343 million (319 million in W4)
\nTV Programmes \u2013 135 million (98 million in W4)
\nFilms \u2013 79 million (81 million in W4)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The proportion of consumers who are accessing 100% illegal content has increased from 8% in the last study (W4) to 10% for the current wave (W5), which is mostly being driven by access to illegal content in the TV programmes category (from 11% in W4 to 14% for W5).<\/p>\n

By comparison there has been a “significant decline<\/em>” in illegal content access in the films category (from 21% in W4 to 16% for the current wave), although it’s worth remembering that the highest level of infringement comes via music content (26%).<\/p>\n

\"2015<\/div>\n

It’s also noted that over half (56%) of those who consumed any type of content during the past three months paid for at least some of it, which has held steady since the last report. Netflix use increased significantly among infringers from 13% in wave 4, to 21% for W5, whistle Spotify use remained stable among this group, at 14%. But the use of Apple\u2019s online products (iTunes or App store) has declined from 26% (W4) to 19% (W5).<\/p>\n

In addition, some 26% of those who consumed any content illegally claimed to use P2P File Sharing services (compared to 6% of those who only consumed legally) and this is the lowest level seen since the first wave in 2012 (it was 32% in W4).<\/p>\n

Meanwhile the most commonly highlighted reasons for infringing were because it is free (49%), convenient (43%) and quick (37%).<\/p>\n

\"2015<\/div>\n

As we know the big ISPs are already trying to get a grip on the problem of Internet piracy by blocking websites<\/strong> involved in copyright infringement (after a court order) and a new education campaign<\/strong> is also about to begin (here<\/a>), which among other things will involve sending email warnings<\/strong> to customers that have been spotted taking part in such activity (these letters \/ alerts will not carry any threats). So how effective is this likely to be?<\/p>\n

What would make infringers stop?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2022 The top three factors that infringers said would encourage them to stop included the availability of cheaper legal services (25%), if everything they wanted was available legally (21%), and if it was clearer what is legal and what is not (21%). All factors were mentioned by a higher proportion of those who consumed a mix of legal and illegal content than by those who consumed content exclusively illegally. Only 14% of those who consumed illegal content exclusively stated that nothing would encourage them to stop.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 Fifteen per cent of infringers indicated that they would be put off \u2018if my ISP sent me a letter saying they would suspend my internet access\u2019, falling to 11% for \u2018if my ISP sent me a letter informing me my account had been used to infringe\u2019, and 10% for \u2018if my ISP sent me a letter saying they would restrict my internet speed\u2019.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2022 Responses to the threat of ISP letters were all at lower levels than they had been in previous waves; the suspension of internet service in particular has fallen by a small proportions wave-on-wave (from 22% in W1, 18% in W2, 16% in W3 and 14% in W4 to its current level of 15%).<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
