Abstract

Preventing unauthorized downloading and other forms of digital piracy has always been challenging. Various strategies based on deterrence, ethical arguments, psychosocial considerations, or technical measures have been effective, but only to a limited degree. The problem persists and it is clear that magic bullets do not exist. One approach is to present consumers with new value propositions based on business models centered on digital streaming and downloading. Attractive product and platform attributes, which are a function of software and hardware design, may influence consumer behavior away from digital piracy and towards legitimate purchases. The results of this study suggest that platform and product usability, quality, and enjoyment can influence unauthorized downloading intention and purchasing intention of legitimate music streaming systems.

影响音乐流媒体采用的基本因素探讨以及参与数字盗版的意图

防止未经授权的下载和其他形式的数字盗版一直是一个挑战。基于威慑、伦理论证、心理社会考虑或技术措施的各种策略是有效的，但只是在有限的程度上。问题依然存在，很明显，灵丹妙药并不存在。一种方法是基于以数字流媒体和下载为中心的商业模式，向消费者提供新的价值主张。有吸引力的产品和平台属性是软件和硬件设计的功能，可能会影响消费者的行为，使其远离数字盗版，转向合法购买。本研究结果表明，平台和产品的可用性、质量和享受可以影响合法音乐流媒体系统的未经授权下载意愿和购买意愿。引用本文:William Hampton-Sosa，“影响音乐流媒体使用和参与数字盗版意图的基本因素的探索”，《国际电子商务研究》，第8卷，第1期，第97-134页，2017。此文档的永久链接:http://dx.doi.org/10.7903/ijecs.1458

The purpose of the International Journal of Electronic Commerce Studies is to promote electronic commerce research and provide worldwide scholars a place to publish their innovative work in electronic commerce. To be published in the journal, the manuscript must make strong empirical, theoretical, or practical contributions and highlight the significance of the contributions to the electronic commerce field. Thus, preference is given to submissions that test, extend, or build strong theoretical frameworks for electronic commerce theory, electronic commerce system development, and electronic commerce practice. The journal is not tied to any particular national context; the geographic distribution of authors publishing in the journal came from countries around the world.
