Combination of 1 and 3.

My understanding of the research is that piracy is a benefit to the videogame industry, doesn’t measurably affect the film industry, and has a slight but measurable negative effect on the music industry and book publishing industry as a whole. Guess what two kinds of media I pirate the most?
