For my survey I chose questions relating to my topic, which was piracy of music. I had questions set out to the general public around the ages of 15 to 25, those most prone to using the computer and downloading. Technology has advanced greatly, and now people are able to "steal music", with very little stopping them from doing so. In my screen capture, you can see that 11 out of 12 people had downloaded music, and it goes on further to show that only one person out the 12 cares if someone download music from their band. The times have changed, yet the record companies still attempt to catch those in the act of piracy.
Most of the questions were answered in a majority fashion of either all the people agreeing or disagreeing with one or two people taking the opposing side. This was dissapointing because it is interesting to see people's opinion on different topics, but this helps my assignment by showing the majority of people's opinions on a certain question. the split question was asking if people considered downloading music as stealing, where over a third said it was stealing, while the other two-thirds said it was not.
If I could change the survey I would attempt to think of more questions, in order to obtain more results and information. Overall this survey has really helped my assignment and strengthened my ideas on how to organize the essay.
Interesting results!
