- Additional information
- This is the first study to produce a model describing the dynamics of demand and supply-side of content file diffusion on a P2P network. Using a unique data set in collaboration with one of the largest media consortiums in the United States, we quantified the impact of demand and supply reduction in the early period of music piracy, marking a major leap forward into our understanding of pre-release music piracy and the development of anti-piracy measures with unique properties and applications on decentralised systems. Potential value of the model includes improved reducibility, digital content diffusion process control and sales prediction.
