For me "Pirated DVD's and Pirated Software is a strict "NO". But, there are so many of my friends who buy loads of "Pirated DVD's and Pirated Software. Over here in India, there are no strict laws against the usage. Though the laws are there........ but, there is no body to ensure that such laws are enforced. You will find a lot of shops who sell Pirated Film DVD's and Pirated Software....... and these days....... Pirated Games are doing the round too. This sure is a big crime.

No, simply because my videoplayer just won't read it. It will just flash "No disc." Four times we wanted to watch a good movie on a pirated dvd. My friends came to my place with the dvd and we settled into the couch, ready with the kettle corn, iced tea and other cold drinks. But no, we couldn't watch!!! Four times this happened to us. LOL Piracy is a crime. Yes. But isn't it likewise a crime to limit access to dvd's of good films only to the rich? This is the reason why people continue to buy pirated dvd's: the original ones are very expensive. If only they would cut the current price of the originals to even just half, maybe then no one will buy pirated dvd's anymore.
