“…There was no significant effect of income on intention to pirate at the p>0.05 level for the different levels of income. The findings were consistent with those of Gan and Koh [16], Kwong et al [30], and Rahim, Seyal and Rahman [40] who found no correlation between income and pirating of software, yet they were expected to be similar to the findings of Lau [9], Mishra, Akman and Yazici [25], and Coyle, Gould and Gupta [41] who did find a significant relationship. It is important to note that students may not have known the answer to this particular question; as they were not given the opportunity to ask their parents for financial information, some students may have guessed or estimated the answer about the level of their household income.…”

“…Gan and Koh [16], Kwong et al [30], and Rahim, Seyal and Rahman [40] found no correlation between these variables. On the other hand, Lau [9], Mishra, Akman and Yazici [25] and Coyle, Gould and Gupta [41] found a significant relationship between income and the reasons for using pirated software. When software has a high price relative to income, it makes economic sense to purchase hardware and rely on pirated software [8].…”

Abstract.As the requirement to use computers increases, software piracy is increasing, yet little research has been conducted in South Africa to investigate the reasons why students pirate software. This paper reports on a study on the demographic factors affecting students' intention to pirate software. The study was carried out on students at the University of the Witwatersrand using questionnaires. It was found that gender and an individual's level of study had the most significant effect on intention to pirate, with academic discipline and level of household income having the least significant effect. Educational campaigns on the ethics and consequences of piracy are recommended.

“…In the scenario, the signal of the changed nature of consumption of literature and festival is shown in the consumption of music performance (Coyle et al 2009;Huang 2003;Molteni and Ordanini 2003). The downloading or streaming of music (either for free or at very low cost) has become far more popular than buying.…”

This conceptual paper uses a scenario planning process to facilitate possible futures for literary festivals, a form of festival tourism that has grown rapidly in the developed and developing countries of the world in the early decades of the 21 st Century and which continues to grow towards 2050. The paper addresses this in the context of two significant cities, Shanghai -a megacity in China, and Melbourne, the capital city of Victoria, Australia. The paper offers two scenarios for literary festivals, one drawn from science fiction and the other from a process of prognosis. The aim of this work is to contribute to research in festival tourism studies by exploring the signposts and signals that may confer the future role, form and function of literature and the format and activity of literary festivals and literary festival tourism in a changing world. Utilizing Signals and Signposts, the work contributes to the body of work which seeks strategic responses to rapid change, rapid urbanization and possible zones of uncertainty that may await literary festivals and associated tourism and community activity in the future.

“…Nesse cenário, o consumidor, além de decidir entre marcas e produtos similares, também delibera sobre comprar um produto original ou um pirata ou, ainda, se ele próprio pode pirateá-lo. No entanto, Coyle et al (2009) afirmam que há poucas evidências empíricas sobre a maneira como o consumidor decide se engajar na pirataria.…”

“…Caso o consumidor não consiga perceber uma relação equilibrada entre o que será investido em uma compra e a utilização do produto que será adquirido, o mesmo poderá não realizar essa compra. Se for de extrema necessidade, a tendência é o consumidor buscar substitutos, até mesmo a sua versão pirata (Coyle et al, 2009).…”

Resumo O Brasil é o quarto país onde mais se comercializam produtos piratas, com prejuízo à indústria, à economia e às relações internacionais. A despeito da importância deste assunto, há poucas evidências empíricas sobre a maneira como o consumidor decide se engajar na pirataria. Esta pesquisa se propõe a investigar se as variáveis compostas pelos aspectos comportamentais, econômicos, legais e éticos são relevantes para a tomada de decisão do consumidor em piratear ou não DVDs de filmes. A abordagem metodológica adotada foi quantitativa com o emprego da técnica de regressão logística binária. Os dados foram coletados junto a 205 estudantes de graduação. Os resultados da pesquisa sugerem que as variáveis de caráter legal e econômico tiveram maior peso na tomada de decisão do consumidor. Os resultados também demonstraram que fatores tais como considerar a pirataria ilegal, o preço do DVD original justo e ter informações sobre as consequências da pirataria diminuem a intenção de piratear.
