I agree piracy
shuld stop as it is crime. Seems
like its lower income
pple who buy
it. Why cant the originals b sold at a
reasonable price?
Jus a thought.
if
the movie and music industry dies you
have long dark nights to look forward
to. this is
the message u out to put out on posters
and fliers. good
luck!
Part of the piracy solution lies with
the distributors. If they reduce their
profit margins, this means lower prices
to the consumer
IF YOU WANT TO STOP PIRACY IN OUR
COUNTRY, WHY DONT THEY STOP SELLING
REWRITABLE CDS AND DVDS,
THATS THE
ONLY WAY ITS GOING TO STOP, IS BY TAKING
THOSE SUPPLIES OFF THE MARKET
Die koste
van oorspronklike
dvd en
musiek is
te
hoog.
verlaag
die koste en
dan
kan die
gewone
mense
dit
ook
bekostig.
Dis tog net
die middelman
wat geld
maak.
Get original copies of movies out
sooner, and at lower affordable prices.
Then we, the public will b encouraged 2
buy the originals.
Everything in SOUTH AFRICA is expensive
i
just want to say its a very good move,
but dont
concentrate on
gauteng only cause its happening
all over the country.
make
the movies cheper
and make the mark up smaller
consumers
should be prosecuted
ppl
buyin those
dvds,
cds r just
as guilty as the
ppl that copy them illegally
people
who buy pirated
dvds or cds
should receive fines,
eg, R200 per
disk. Distributors should receive larger
fines. Manufacturers get jailed.
Please attend to piracy problem at the
William Nicoll
offramp.
Arrogant hawkers openly sell fake DVDs
with Metro Police
metrer away
issueing fines?
I dont buy
pirated DVDs and think people who do r
morally corrupt. If
its easy for me to say no, why do
others find it so easy to say yes?
THESE HAWKERS ARE TRYING TO FEED
FAMILIES. THE MOVIE/MUSIC INDUSTRY MUST
PROVID JOBS OR THESE HAWKERS MAY TURN TO
VIOLENT CRIMES. WHICH IS THE LESSER
EVIL??
I DONT SUPPORT THESE DVD HAWKERS, BUT I
SYMPATHISE WITH THESE UNEMPLOYED PEOPLE.
WHAT IS THE SOLUTION? NOT WHAT Mr
SHUSTER SUGESTED
There seems to be a bigger issue. What
drives people to sell or buy these
dvds?
Poor economic
climate for the majority. The
alternative for many of the sellers is
violent or serious crime, people must
eat. this
will not go away while unemployment is
so high. The long term solution is to
eradicate unemployment, government must
do more!
Consumers would much rather buy the
origanal
product for a decent price than pay
R50-00 for a pirate product.
Isnt
half an egg better than an empty shell?
The lifestyles of
artists and producers has been
shamefully ridiculous for a very long
time.
Suggest hawker is left alone-making
money best he can & used, poor bugger.
TARGET THE BUYER and keep ear 2 ground
WHO OFFERS 2 make a tape via a friend of
a friend.
maybe
the question that should be asked is why
are movies allowed to be viewed by the
media before it is released this could
be where the source of the
Dvds comes
from !
cinema
managers must make sure that no one
enters the cinema with a video camera
including staff members.
Thats
exactly how we can grow the movie
business. Again strict measures to be
followed when movie makers loan the copy
for awards
ceremonys cause it can be copied
I think the best way to stop piracy is
to discontinue the manufacture of
cd/dvd
rewriters ,
cd/dvd-rs +
cd/dvd-rw &
software.
