Sharing Copyrighted or Unauthorized Replications (SCOURing) is a common
activity among some 80 million online file-swappers. Unfortunately.
SCOURing is also an illegal activity. A better understanding of
SCOURing could help to mitigate its practice. To that end, results from
an empirical study of US and UK consumers suggest SCOURing is explained
by motivations (justification, believed pervasiveness by peers,
believed risklessness, and experiential reasons) and ability
(tech-savviness). If true, then companies' efforts to reduce SCOURing
by legal action or trying to educate consumers about the victims of
SCOURing may be ineffective. Published by Elsevier Inc.
