The same report outlines how Japanese obtain their music. [*] Buying CDs - 64.3% [*] Renting CDs - 17% [*] Free downloads - 5.1% [*] Paid downloads - 4.7% [*] Borrowed from a friend - 3.8% [*] Burnt onto a CD-R by a friend - 1.7% [*] Downloaded as a ring tone - 0.9% [*] Other - 2.6%
While music downloads is on the increase, the majority of Japanese still prefer physical CDs.
A related interesting report not directly related to Japanese P2P usage shows that illegal downloading of music actually helps CD sales.
Do you prefer CDs or downloads or both and how do you obtain your cool tunes?
