The poll BVA-Orange for the Forum d’Avignon “The French and the digital culture”

 
On the occasion of the third edition of the Forum d’Avignon around the theme « More accessibility, new usage in a digital era: culture for everyone? », the polling institute BVA realized an exclusive poll for Orange and the Forum d’Avignon. Six questions related to the topics at the center of the reflections of the Forum have been posed to a panel of 1117 persons representative of the French population over 15. 

Several perspectives became apparent…

Some examples: 

- 74% of the French think that the new technologies of information and communication fostered the access to culture

- The youth, the less qualified and the less privileged particularly benefited from the Internet, as a tool which clearly promoted a better access to culture. Thus the part of individuals considering that the Internet positively increased the access to culture reaches 82% of the people under 25, 81% of the non qualified persons and 87% of those earning less than 1 500 €/month..

- The French seem to be ready to spend money for two types of contents: films (27%) and music (26%) – these two types of contents being the two more affected by illegal downloads
