| Tiivistelmä: | This article argues that in a competitive software market, in the presence of differential piracy and brand switching among the various brands within a software product category (e.g. , spreadsheets), there may be no relationship between market estimates based on unit sales and the user base of a software brand (e.g., Lotus 1-2-3). Hence, marketing strategies developed for the software brand based on unit sales-based market share may be misleading. The authors support this argument and quantify the relationship between unit sales-based market share and the user-based market share. |
