Смысл: The main idea is that a costly EU-funded study debunked the common claim by copyright holders that digital piracy significantly destroys licensed sales, suggesting instead that piracy often has a neutral or even positive effect on sales, except in the case of overpriced movies.
An EU-funded study costing $400,000 revealed that digital piracy generally does not reduce licensed content sales and may even increase them, contradicting the claims of major copyright holders.
Смысл: The main idea is that digital piracy does not always result in financial loss for copyright holders and can sometimes even boost legal sales by acting as a discovery mechanism. This is exemplified by a Spanish court ruling that denied compensation due to the inability to prove lost profits.

Смысл: The main idea is that digital piracy can be eliminated by banning exclusive contracts between content creators and publishers, thereby fostering competition and lowering prices for consumers.
