title = "{\textquoteleft}I want it all{\textquoteright}: the attitudes and behaviours of MP3 player owners in the context of music piracy",
abstract = "Whilst much research has explored predictive factors of digital piracy, little attention has been paid to the role of technology in facilitating such behaviours. Drawing from data initially gathered from a 2009 Oxford Internet Survey, a quasi-experiment was conducted specifically exploring the contribution of the MP3 player. Data of interest was isolated from 1318 Internet users. 42.9% of the sample was male, with an age range of 14-90. Responses to the question {\textquoteleft}Does your household have an mp3 player?{\textquoteright} was used for analyses where results demonstrated that MP3-player owners had more favourable attitudes towards digital piracy as well as being better equipped to minimise the risks associated with digital piracy. MP3-player owners were also observed to be more competent Internet users overall, suggesting an increased resilience against certain anti-piracy measures such as website blocking. Discussion centres on technology as ultimately facilitating piracy engagement, speculating on future trends.",
