Hi Dan,
Unfortunately I can only point you to the HRRC's summary of the OTA
(Office of Technology Assesment) study being referred to. This study
was commisioned by Congress during the AHRA legislation process. In
introducing their summary the HRRC writes:
The OTA determined that "evidence" that home audio taping
displaced sales of prerecorded material was, at best,
inconclusive, and that home taping practices actually
stimulated sales.
The summary is here: http://www.hrrc.org/otasum.html . It makes good
reading actually.
