HADOPI, the French agency charged with disconnecting French Internet users
> who use the same Internet connections as accused copyright infringers,
> conducted a study on media purchasing habits by copyright infringers. They
> concluded that the biggest unauthorized downloaders are also the biggest
> customers for legitimate media. Just like every other study that’s looked at
> the question, of course, but this time the study was funded and released by
> one of the most extreme copyright enforcement bodies on the planet.
