“…Bakker examines secondary data—media reports and industry announcements—using multiple analysis methods, and concludes that paid (legal) download services are more enduring than P2P file‐sharing services. Similar studies have been carried out by King and Lampe (2003) as well as Domon and Yamazaki (2004). Liebowitz (2003; 2005; 2006) are seminal studies of the file‐sharing networks, focusing on research methodologies used to estimate the impact of P2P sharing on the global music industry.…”

“…However in a more detailed model describing a competitive, duopoly or oligopoly MLIM market for virtual goods, other structural effects must be taken into account. Domon and Yamazaki (2004) point out that increased search costs due to unauthorised file-sharing can bias markets for virtual goods and impede the distribution of legal copies. We call such those positive effects, which depend on the relative dominance of one good in a MLIM market over others, multiplier effects.…”

“…Other studies support copyright protection, for instance Kinokuni (2003) shows theoretically that publisherÕs profits are maximised by a policy of restricting the number of copies to an optimal level if the distribution by (illegal) copies is more efficient than distribution by originals. Domon and Yamazaki (2004) examine the effects of illegal file-sharing on transaction and search costs from the perspective of optimal monopoly pricing. Lea and Hall (2004) survey the intellectual property controversy and the conflict with public interest.…”

“…The IIPA also claims that piracy “prevents recording companies from investing in local acts and jeopardizes the opportunities that Ecuadorian artists have to develop and promote their talents” (2006:241). Yet unlike international corporate media, domestic music video producers are often happy to see their discs pirated because it works as free publicity for live performances (Domon 2006 attests that this is also true in Vietnam). In Ecuador copied and re‐copied pirated videos are low‐cost advertising for concerts, where the real money is made.…”
