The sections regarding economic [e.g. “I use
pirated content online if I cannot afford to buy original
content”] and hedonic [“Using pirated content online
demonstrates that I am a wise shopper”] benefits were taken
from Yoo and Lee (2009). Tan’s (2002) scale was used to
measure moral judgment [“One should always consider the
moral implications before accessing pirated music online”].
Attitude toward online piracy was measured using Liao and
Hsieh (2013) scale [“I have a positive perception towards
online piracy”]. Interest and exposure to music was measured
adapting Lee and Downie (2004) scale [“I am musically
passionate”].
