YouTube Survey Results

We are CESL students of Southern Illinois University Carbondale. In this class of students are study for You tube, and we also decide to make the survey; therefore, we separate into some groups. In our group, we study the article about the issue about copyright of You tube, and we make some survey questions about the copyright such as '' do you think it is illegal to download the movie on You tube?''. However, many people know that all the movie on You tube are posted without authorization. Thus, we are curious about that whether people are still download the movie which are posted without authorization. This is the result of survey. In deed, I did this survey at student center in my college because lots of American prefer to study in student center, and the also prefer to eating, and sleeping, relaxing over there. Hence, it is very easy for me to do the survey. However, some people think it is waste time to do my survey, but some of them are willing to do that. Generally, 40% people were decline my asking to do the survey, but they use very polite way to say they do not want to do it. Of course other 40 percent of people used very nicely way to do my survey. I handed 14 survey, majority of them are the age between 18 to 22.

After we analyzed the survey, I am not really surprised the survey. According to this survey, the age from 18~22 of people have ever heard of You tube more than the people who are above 22. Also, the age from 18~22 of people go to you tube to watch movie clips are more than the people who are above 22. Moreover, the age from 18~22 of people are more often to watch the movie from You tube and they are more interested in You tube than the people who are above 22. Furthermore, the age from 18~22 of people think people should not pay for movie are much more than the people who are above 22. Therefore, we can find out that the people whose age are between 18~22 spend more time on You tube. Also, we can understand from the survey that You tube is really influenced the people whose age from 18~22 that they think watch the authorization of movie is normal. Thus, it shows that this age's people do not think serious about the concept of copyright.

Many elder people said that the medium not only gives young entertainment, but also changes and influences young people's concept of mind. The reason I say that is the people in this generation should not think copyright is important. However, if you ask an elder people or a professor, they will answer '' it is very important of copyright''. It is definitely that if people do not think copyright is important, they will get trouble in the feature such as they will not think it is bad to copy other people's essay and they will think it is right to use some one's sentence without the permission. Moreover, by analyzing this survey that we can understand the different between 18~22 and the people who are above 22. In my opinion, I think not only do they have different concept, the ways of their entertainment are also different. For example, the ways of entertainment for young people are maybe to see the movie on You tube which is authorization, and they may update the movie which is without the permission. Also, they are not feel guilty. However, this kind and this way of entertainment for elder people are very ridiculous. Due to the fact that elder people think it is ridiculous to see the movie which is without the permission that they will not go on You tube to download or they will not update the movie which is also without the permission. I think this is a really huge discovering that the concept of copyright one the difference of age.
