I actually imagine it would be fairly difficult to get an accurate and unbiased study completed. For one thing it would require people to be honest about their habits, among a group who acknowledge a willingness to ignore copyright law. Can you trust their answers?
I'm not saying yes or no, because I don't know.

It is something I've noticed in various studies I've seen, and also something that others have made comments on before. I remember a few years back, one thinktank got in trouble because they were skewing studies in favor to the study sponsors.
