Anti-piracy for publishers and authors
For publishers, aggregators, distributors, trade bodies and self-published authors. We remove illegal copies of books, e-books, audiobooks, journals and sheet music from piracy sites, cyberlockers, search and marketplaces.

Measure publishing piracy
Two datasets: one for the whole industry, one for your own titles.
Piracy by Industry
Visits to publishing piracy sites by country, alongside film, TV, music and software. Daily data since 2017, from more than 70,000 of the highest-traffic piracy sites.
- Size piracy in a market, and compare countries and industries
- Rank piracy sites, to find targets for legal action and site blocking
- Track how it changes over time
- See which delivery methods and traffic sources drive it
- Back policy work with evidence. The EUIPO's report on copyright infringement in the EU uses MUSO data.
For trade bodies, governments, policy teams and researchers.
Piracy intelligence on your titles
How many times each of your titles is downloaded by torrent, and how many visits the piracy pages offering it get, by country and by site. Data from July 2019, downloadable as CSV. Available with or without Protect.
- Track each title over time
- Prioritise the countries and sites to act on
- Check results against enforcement and your vendors
