I went to a sales meeting at the request of the organiser. it cost me �29
petrol. I spent 3 hours filming the event. I spent 6 hours editing it and
then copied 10 to cdr to supply at �5 (That was implied as the potential) .
to cover costs.

The area managers bought 1 each that was 3 gone. they copied it for their
teams. (30 copies at cost to them). I WAS ROBBED. it cost me more than �15
to make and I was told �5 was a fair cost. but I wont do it again. this was
3 years ago and blanks were �2 in Tesco. SVP about �1

That is the effect of piracy. this is a true story. ( anybody want a
training disk 7 only left)
