The study defines and measures movie piracy as anyone viewing a full-length movie via ‘unauthorized’ means, including: digital (downloading, streaming, digital transfer of pirated copies), physical (buying counterfeit/copied DVDs), and secondary (borrowing or viewing pirated copies). The study measures the impact of movie piracy in two steps: 1/ the direct consumer spending loss to the movie industry and retailers from movie piracy, based on a nationally representative telephone survey of 3,325 adults aged 18 and over, conducted from June to September 2010 and 2/ the “ripple effects” of the consumer spending loss to determine the total economic losses from movie piracy across the entire Canadian economy. Note: The results offer a conservative view of piracy, and do not treat every pirate view as a lost sale. As such, the results should be treated as indicators that piracy is at the very least causing this level of harm. Details: London: Oxford Economics, 2012, 11p.
