Less than five percent of Internet users in Europe have paid for online content so far. Fifty percent do not intend to spend any money on it in the future either. This is according to a report by the European Commission.
So far, less than five percent of internet users in Europe have paid for online content. The proportion is only higher among 16 to 24-year-olds. This age group spent money on around ten percent of content. This is according to a report by the European Commission. 50 percent of those surveyed are not prepared to pay for content in the future. 30 percent would be swayed by lower prices, according to Netzwoche.ch. A further 15 to 20 percent would pay something if the quality was improved and/or the selection increased. Only around 20 percent would be prepared to switch to paid content if there was no more free content.
