18-25? Then please fill out my dissertation survey!

I need to collaborate data for my dissertation, which is on the subject of piracy and the music industry.

All data is strictly for research purposes only and I won't grass you up to whoever!

Please ensure that you only fill out the survey if you are between the ages of 18 and 25 - I have nothing against elders, honestly

Thanks in advance

Done. Completely guessed the music industry questions though.

Not a university dissertation is it?

With 4 companies to pick between and the actual values for profit loss varying so greatly, and in no case being a 0 value?
Statistically they will slaughter you if they are aware of your information gathering methods if you try to draw any conclusions from the data relating to earning figures.

3. Have you ever purchased music legally in any of these stores? (Please tick all that apply) *This question is required

Missing Amazon imo

I have ethical approval, thanks.

Perhaps I should have put high street stores?

Then yes, I think you need to clarify that and the question above it too (I took it to mean digital music only).

+1

I noticed there was no option for acquiring music from rapidshare, megaupload et al.

Which I understand is very popular.

What has ethical approval got to do with your questions setting you up for statistical invalidation?

The answers are used from financial records from each company, which is a public document. This was discussed with my supervisor when seeking approval. Apologies as I don't fully understand the issue here.
