most of the downloads are tracked and paid for, but more pirated copies are made in factories and sold on the streets of china and in shops then all the legimate copies combined worldwide. imagine over 500 titles per week in dvd's alone. taiwan and other asian countries play by the rules. even the piracy in latin america is peanuts next to china. we can't expect the notion of licensing and property rights to take hold without showing that there is a price to pay for breaking international laws. everyone i know who deals in products from china believes that their suppliers are the exception. even products that are legitimately made in china are pirated at the same time. the music industry is a 12 billion dollar industry...it is estimated that loses each year from china are in the billions as well.
