Ipsos-Reid sez P2P doesn't hurt record sales

Ipsos-Reid has just completed a comprehensive study of music downloading, a study whose results put a lie to the recording industry's claims that P2P filesharing nets are harming their business. Check out this interview with an Ipsos-Reid research director:

* Over 50% of teenagers download music.

* About two-thirds of teenage boys download music

* Surprisingly, teenagers are the most receptive demographic toward
the concept of paying for online services.

* Surprisingly, downloaders appear to buy more CDs
