Despite the phenomenal success of Apple in building a market charging for music downloads, research has shown that more than 80% of iPod owners do not pay for digital music.
Just 17% of European iPod owners purchase music on at least a monthly basis, according to a report by JupiterResearch.
However, 30% of iPod owners download music illegally for free and 23% do the same with video.
The figures include paid-for music, as well as tracks downloaded free from legal and illegal sites.
