On September 15, a report released by IDC and BSA (Commercial Software Alliance), an internationally renowned survey agency, revealed that the software piracy rate in the Chinese market remained at a relatively high level. If the Chinese market reduced the piracy rate within 2-4 years, the report said. 10% will drive economic growth by 32%. The result of this analysis is the result of IDC and BSA's analysis of the situation in 42 countries.
IDC and BSA jointly pointed out that if China’s PC software piracy rate is reduced by 10% in four years, it will create 250,000 high-tech jobs by 2013, new economic activities worth US$16 billion, and new tax revenue of US$4.4 billion. Income, while 84% of these benefits will benefit the local economy. In addition, the study also found that if the acceleration of the process to reduce software piracy, the benefits will increase faster: If China will reduce the piracy rate by 10% in the next 2 years, you can make the economic and taxation increase by 32% and 31% respectively.
In recent years, BSA's release of data on China's market software piracy rate has caused domestic doubts on several occasions, among which the internet lab commissioned by the competent authorities is targeting the BSA, arguing that it has clearly overstated software piracy in the Chinese market. Rates, the two released their own data are also very different. In view of this, BSA did not publish the piracy rate in the Chinese market in accordance with the usual practice, but instead used an "ambiguous" attitude to "analyze" the prospects of the Chinese market.
Yao Xin, director of China for the Business Software Alliance, takes a proactive view of the impact of reducing software piracy rates in China. “Reducing the rate of software piracy will inject much-needed impetus into China’s economic development. The sales, service and support of software products are linked to this. The demand for marketing and services creates software piracy that will not only bring huge losses to software publishers, but will also reduce the economic benefits of local distributors and service providers, thus affecting the employment and government tax revenues of the software industry and related industries. Local economy."
He therefore suggested reducing the piracy rate through the following methods: 1. Strengthen the education on the value of intellectual property, promote the commercial practice of managing and optimizing software assets through software asset management (SAM) in the enterprise; The WIPO Copyright Treaty creates an effective legislative environment to protect online and offline copyrights; 3. Creates a powerful and feasible intellectual property enforcement mechanism in accordance with the requirements of the WTO Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights Agreement. , Strictly enforce the law on the abuse and infringement of software innovations such as cloud computing technology; 4. Intensify the implementation of intellectual property rights enforcement by investing resources, including the establishment of specialized intellectual property enforcement agencies, and strengthen cross-border cooperation between law enforcement agencies; 5. The government passed Active software asset management policies apply genuine software, and promote the use of legal software among government agencies, state-owned enterprises, contractors, and suppliers.
However, some people in the software industry have also given different comments on the practice of BSA's frequent “pirating†of China’s software market piracy rate. “BSA hopes to attract industry attention through eye-catching numbers, but in fact they conducted surveys. It may not be able to cover the software industry, and the figures given are not necessarily accurate.†According to CCS, besides the BSA, Internet labs and other organizations have successively launched annual investigations into the software piracy rate in the Chinese market.
