It's great to live in a country where you have free public access to reports such as the Culture and Leisure Habits of Danes 2004 [DANSKERNES KULTUR- OG FRITIDSAKTIVITETER 2004 - in Danish only].

This report includes a section analysing the use of computer games and the internet - and it also tries to correlate the uses of culture with the (in Denmark) very famous "Gallup Compas", which divides the Danes into four different groups with different lifestyle practices.
- So for instance, the report shows that it is the modern-individual-oriented segment who play computer games.

Another interesting fact from the report is that 59% of Danish children now have their own mobile phone. In 1998, only 3% of the children had a mobile phone.

Another interesting report out on the habits of the Danes is the IFKA report: The Danes 2005 (Danskerne 2005 - in Danish only). It is based on 4400 interviews examining what the Danes think of and do in their life - including an analysis of their media habits. Unfortunately, this reports costs DKK 225. One of the things you can learn from this report (fact from IFKA's homepage) is that 66% of the population living in Copenhagen use the internet on a daily basis - in Northern Jutland it is only 50% of the population who use the internet on a daily basis.
