The world’s largest software markets North America and Western Europe continued to have the lowest piracy rates. Between 1994 and 2002, the U.S. piracy rate dropped to 24 percent from 32 percent and in Western Europe to 35 percent from 52 percent.

By contrast, Eastern European nations, including Russia and Ukraine, plus the Asia Pacific region, led by China and Vietnam, are the big culprits, with piracy rates at 90 percent or higher last year.

The BSA has also pressured governments to bolster piracy enforcement and laws with limited success.

C’mon ppl! Lazy ass pirates need to get a move on and stop embarrassing me. My piracy rate has actually increased from 95 to 100 percent over that period. So much for statistics
