Supplementary notes

The source provides the following information about the methodology: "Respondents are asked to select a point on a 5-point scale to best describe their preference for accessing music via online service or owning the songs they listen to. On this scale, 1= I prefer to access music via online services, without owning the songs themselves, and 5= I prefer to own the songs I listen to (e.g. by purchasing albums or paying for downloads."

This question was phrased by the source as follows: "For each of these sets of statements, please select the point on the scale that best describes you - are you at one end of the scale or somewhere in the middle?"

The source does not specify the type of survey.
