Stop movie piracy : make a difference!

Motion Picture Association actually have a website to tell people about piracy!
http://www.make-a-difference.sg/singapore/
In the website, there are things like the piracy ecosystem where they talk about how movies are stolen and then distributed through international distribution systems. Under the piracy ecosystem, they also talk about the different method on how movie are distributed. Such as, cd-rom and downloading of the net.
They also talk about what they have done to prevent people from recording. As patrons, we can do a part be being alert and when we see someone tries to record illegally, contact the local police. They are trying to tell the people that we are actually victims too when it comes to movie piracy. “Movie piracy is not a victimless crime and you are one of the victims. Long before piracy effects Hollywood it robs local businesses of a livelihood and the capacity to provide local employment. People who steal movies are stealing money from every cinema….and that means fewer jobs”. I think that reading this website really makes me know more about movie piracy and how we can help to fight movie piracy.
