Enormous losses

Every year there is report about how much money companies, which sell digital content, lose due to piracy. Most of people sure that numbers exaggerated, but nobody could say that piracy is not a problem. Developing countries suffer the most, because great companies are afraid to enter their markets because of high expenses and low probability of profits. 

In the same time, companies care about the profits only and do not want to spend time searching for real reasons that drive digital piracy. As you might already guess, there is no chance to deal with piracy without understanding the problem. And the problems are: low level of income in most countries, high prices for games and other digital goods and greed of the companies themselves. Let us pay more attention to each of these issues.

Low level of income is not the problem that could be solved by digital content creators and distributors, because you need government to fix this. In the same time, some companies understand real conditions, so they lower the prices. However, it is not the solution, because pirate content is free and, due to human nature, most of users prefer free to cheap. 

High price for digital goods is something that content distributors really can make impact, but they do not want to. It is stupid to use the same price in countries, where average income is 200 and 2000 dollars. And, before you start to blame them, you need to get one thing: when people form developed countries will find the way to change IP and save money buying digital goods, they will use it, there is no doubt. 

The last issues is greed and this is the one that cannot be solved. We are sure that some companies would like to decrease prices to fight piracy, but most of them will never apply such step. In such terms, people, who buy goods, will pay for pirates, which is not fair. And we are talking about greed, because some of creators add a lot of paid content to the product, which had been already bought. It makes even loyal customers pirates, because it is extremely unfair.

Free movement of digital content

Fortunately, there is a solution for all these issues. It is called secondary market for digital goods. Of course, this idea is not new, but blockchain revolution allowed looking on it from the other point of view, because now creators of content can make profits of every sale on secondary market. At least. At Asobi market.

Asobi created perfect smart contract for trading of digital goods. Buyer pays full price, which is formed of: fee, part of payment that goes to creator and part of payment, which goes to seller. Therefore, creators and distributors are able to earn on such deals and people are able to get goods for the lower price. There is no difference between new film and film that was already watched, so we are sure that Asobi will be popular. Do not miss your chance to become one of the first Asobi Market users!
