An anonymous reader writes "Yes, even the MPAA can be wrong. The Associated Press reports that in a 2005 study it conducted through an outfit called LEK everyone's favorite movie trade association vastly overestimated how much college students engage in illegal movie downloading; instead of '44 percent of the industry's domestic losses' owing to their piracy, it's 15 percent — and one expert's quoted as saying even that number's way too high. Dan 'Sammy' Glickman's gang admitted to the mishap, blaming 'human error', and promised 'immediate action to both investigate the root cause of this problem as well as substantiate the accuracy of the latest report,' which one hopes doesn't involve the FBI. Or maybe it should." Link to Original Source
