Anonymous Reader writes: “Edison Research just released a pro-record industry report stating ‘10.1% of 12-17s are actively downloading/not purchasing music.’ Richard Menta over at MP3 Newswire noted that this also means 90% of file traders in this age group ARE buying music, a positive result that supports the virtues of trading. Menta then goes through the study’s findings one-by-one, questioning Edison Research’s conclusions. This includes their recommendation to the industry to fight the ‘downloading problem.’
