Abstract
The digitization of media goods weakened the effective strength of copyright policy by allowing widespread sharing of media files over the Internet, forcing governments to consider how to reform copyright policy to reflect the digital era and forcing firms to consider new strategies in order to compete with online piracy. This paper reviews the economic evidence on the effectiveness of various government antipiracy interventions as well as firm strategies aimed at mitigating piracy’s impact. By synthesizing the results of various studies, we provide insights on the principles that drive the degree of success or failure of various antipiracy policies. This study should be of value to policymakers and rightsholders considering copyright reform initiatives, and also to researchers looking for guidance toward what questions remain important but unanswered by current academic literature.
