Global Software Piracy Study
Warez goes down


2002 marks the eighth year of the annual BSA Global Software Piracy Study and, since the inception of the study in 1994, significant success in combating software piracy is evident.

Aided by considerable decreases in the piracy rates of each of the six regions defined by the study, the 2002 world piracy rate of 39% is 10 points below the piracy rate measured in 1994.

2002 also marks the first decline in the world software piracy rate since 1999, the year in which the piracy rate hit an all-time low of 36%. .
