Respondents in both the US and UK admitted to making unauthorized copies of DVDs in the last 6 months, up from just over a quarter of respondents in 2007.
The second annual study by Furturesource Consulting, a research and analysis firm, called "Consumer Home Piracy Research Findings," once again surveyed respondents in both the US and UK to gauge the levels of which consumers are making unauthorized copies of DVDs.
The online survey took place in May 2008 amongst consumers in the USA (3,613) and in the UK (1,718) and asked respondents about their home piracy habits of the last 6 months.
Around one third of all respondents in both countries admitted to making unauthorized copies of DVDs, up from just over a quarter of respondents in 2007. They pirated an average of 12 titles in the US and some 13 titles in the UK.
