File Sharing in Europe: Converting Free Activity into Paid Activity

 
The RIAA's lawsuits against individual file sharers in the US are the latest skirmishes in a war of attrition between the music industry and the file sharing community; according to a recent Jupiter Research Consumer Survey of US online adults ages 18 and up, approximately 18 percent of respondents who shared music files stated they had curtailed these activities due to legal threats.
Key Questions
How are illegal file sharing networks changing, and what impact will the RIAA lawsuits have on this process?
Is there a link between file sharing network usage and commercial piracy?
What are the characteristics of European file sharers?
