But that goes with the territory. Its a bit like "What have the Romans
done for us"! You gotta laugh though.
To be honest, if you look back at prices of VHS and now DVD, piracy
has had some good effects. Certainly prices in general are far lower
than they used to be. (I remember thinking I had loads of bargains
from real.com paying about £14 a disc), also - studios are now more in
a rush to release films so they get their cut - before everyone has
seen and bought a chav copy.
