Pirates Promise Improved Version of DaVinci Code

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the if-you-want-something-done-right dept.

Y'arr, Matey writes "CD Freaks is reporting that pirates are not happy with the quality of the DaVinci Code. According to the article, "A sales assistant at one Shanghai DVD shop said the initial copies were 'pirated overseas' and that 'better quality' versions would probably be available early next month.""

    Sure it does. Slashdot is a pro-piracy haven. Everyone here thinks it's great that movies and music are pirated, and that it's all justified.

    Of course, if someone rips off GPL code, that's a bad thing, and the offender should be sued. But MPAA/RIAA piracy? Have at it! Who wants to pay for what you can get for free?

    In case it wasn't clear, I'm "pro-pirate" myself, and it was mostly a meta-comment about Slashdot and not an attack on the fine Netizens who provide me free MP3s.

    Just that I somehow manage to drive 75MPH to work every day without posting essays on the Internet about how Speed Limits are immoral and the Highway Patrol are corrupt assholes who incorrectly pull over Grannys.
