Had a...Hi there, thanks for checking out the site.<br /><br />Had a look at your blog. You write well and impartially, which is great.<br /><br />Some suggested improvements would include citing as many studies as possible, where there are dozens of links to academic resources on my blog. Websites are good, but it's good to draw from wider resources which have been reviewed. Particularly so when dealing with 'the numbers'. To this end, check out http://musicpiracyresearchblog.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/a-call-for-more-critical-thinking.html where it would be great if you expanded on your impartial writing style to also address gaps and limitations in what we know (as a result of how we know it).<br /><br />I'm researching music piracy, with no particular pro or anti-piracy stance as such. I'm a music psychologist and find there's alot of interesting questions raised from exploring piracy. In principle, I am not in favour of invasive internet monitoring methods of curbing piracy. I see new success stories everyday which are more positive and stem simply from offering good alternatives to piracy. I think that's where we are going.<br /><br />Best of luck with your blog.<br /><br />StevenMusic Piracy Research Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10298720401638576004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5325852283523846446.post-35163692682138476042013-04-17T02:27:23.888-07:002013-04-17T02:27:23.888-07:00Hello Steven,

I also feel that though anti-piracy methods are needed, should be more of a problem to solve by the company themselves rather than something to be brought up to the governmental level.<br /><br />Would you mind reading my blog at http://ajbergengl250.blogspot.com/ ? I would like to have your perspective.
