The Business Software Alliance, a trade group, says that 36% of all the software in the world has been pirated, costing the industry $29 billion in lost revenue. The five countries with the highest incidence of pirated software are: China (92%), Vietnam (92%) and Indonesia (88%), Ukraine (91%), and Russia (87%).
