According to a survey by On-line Testing Exchange (OTX) and MPAA about 24 percent of Internet users have downloaded at least one movie from the net. The survey interviewed 3,600 people in eight countries.
Out of the people surveyed the Koreans seemed to be the most active movie downloaders -- 58 percent of them have reportedly downloaded movies. Most of the people (56 percent) who are currently downloading movies intend to continue downloading in the future, and 17 percent of those who aren't downloading at the moment say that they might start downloading in the future.
As the high-speed broadband Internet connections become more and more common, and the compression technology evolves, the number of downloaders is expected to grow rapidly in the future.
