Brokep of The Pirate Bay breaks down the alleged annual losses his country's entertainment industry is claiming and the numbers just don't add up.
Since early last week everybody's had a field day with the MPAA's mea culpa about how their 2005 piracy study erroneously blamed US college students for being responsible for 44% of its annual losses in this country. The MPAA cited "human error" in the matter and revised the figure to a mere 15% instead, meaning that it had initially been inflated by almost 300%!
Now Brokep of The Pirate Bay(the world's largest BitTorrent tracker site) makes an interesting observation of his own in his "Estimation Constipation" blog posting.
