Heard from some of the 'dvd' stores over here that China has already begun to pirate blu-ray; apparently they take the blu-ray data and burn them on regular DVDs -- would these still be considered high-definition?

BTW, speedy video is a rip -- how can they expect bluray to catch on over here when the discs they are selling are 150+ RM? At amazon I'm getting discs at 14 USD a pop.

I think what the seller meant to say was they rip ou the BD and then compressed it so that it can be burnt using normal DVD? hmm.gif

And to be fair, not all movies from Amazon is USD14 ... sweat.gif only certain titles and we have to wait for the BOGO offer....but the normal BD price is around USD25 which makes them profit at least RM75?? hmm.gif hmm.gif
