It's hard to take someone serious who says "file-sharing has caused the entire decline in sound recording sales that has occurred since the ascendance of Napster."

Science is full of things that are hard to believe but have been shown to be true ( Continental drift is but one of dozens of examples). If the author has the evidence to back up his conclusions, then you should accept it. In any case, you don't have to accept his claim to believe that piracy causes significant harm . There are 13 other studies if you don't like that one.
