We complain 2. Companies complain about piracy 3. People buy fake ass dvds 4. Substandard and OVERPRICED dvds released, back to 1. What can you do?! ANSWER (for UK anyways): BOYCOTT CINEWORLD CINEMAS that CHARGE A RIP OFF AMOUNT TO SEE a FILM - I dont endorse piracy but come on £8.30 on a fri/sat/sun IS TAKING THE PISS! Is it any wonder people buy a £3 pirate? (i do have a cineworld pass but not everyone wants one) I think normal cineworld rate is £5.50 or £6?!
