Stream-ripping is now the fastest-growing form of music piracy in the UK, new research has suggested
Several sites and apps allow users to turn Spotify songs, YouTube videos and other streaming content into permanent files to store on phones and computers
Record labels claim that tens, or even hundreds of millions of tracks are illegally copied and distributed by stream-ripping services each month
One service alone is thought to have more than 60 million monthly users
According to research by the Intellectual Property Office and PRS For Music, 15 of adults in the UK regularly use these services, with 33 of them coming from the 16-24 age bracket
Overall usage of stream-ripping sites increased by 1413 between 2014 and 2016, overshadowing all other illegal music services
In September last year, these sites were used 498,681 times to pirate music in the UK By comparison, file-sharing service BitTorrent was used 23,567 times and Cyberlocker sites like Dropbox and Rapidshare were accessed 104,898 times
As soon as we think weve come up with an innovative solution [to piracy[, the pirates seem to come up with an even more innovative infringement tactic, said Pippa Hall, Chief Economist at the IPO
Reasons given for stream-ripping included:
A quarter of the people who use stream-ripping believed the sites had the necessary rights and permissions to allow them to download and rip content and one in five said they felt they were not doing anything illegal
Only 56 per cent of consumers said they felt confident in identifying illegal content online, the IPO said
Robert Ashcroft, chief executive of PRS for Music, said: We hope that this research will provide the basis for a renewed and refocused commitment to tackling online copyright infringement
The long-term health of the UKs cultural and creative sectors is in everyones best interests, including those of the digital service providers, and a co-ordinated industry and government approach to tackling stream-ripping is essential
There was some good news for the music industry in the IPOs research, however
It found that the average consumer spent £75 on music last year, up from £68 in 2016
