MP3
fans buy more CDs than non-fans -- survey
Register - London,England,UK
Music fans who are into the MP3 download scene buy more CDs that
listeners who don't, according to a new survey from the Gartner Group.
We say 'new', but the research actually took place back in February, long before
the Napster controversy achieved the widespread coverage it's been getting over
the last couple of months or so. In fact, given the survey's title, Is Napster
Hurting Music Sales? we suspect a degree of cashing in on Napster's fame here.
Anyway, Gartner asked 40,000 US households about their online listening habits.
Some 41 per cent of those who use MP3 said they download files to sample music
before shelling out for the CD.
