(TV) The demographics of downloading music

[Maurice Rickard <maurice@mac.com>]

Interesting article here:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/6/11301.html

It cites a Pew Charitable Trusts study on who's downloading mp3s of 
music from the 'net.  Two interesting findings:  more of them fit the 
30-49 demographic than the college-age demo, and many of them 
subsequently go out and buy the discs that were the original source 
of the mp3s.

Interesting, especially in light of the recent firestorms.  Napster 
as a promotional tool?  People leaving tips for the artists?  Sounds 
like it, from this study.
