Fails to mention he also was selling the discs online.

But they want to sentence him for 15 years for this, even though his actions likely saved lives during the height of COVID if the allegations are true; if they aren’t true, he harmed nobody because those 10 million people wouldn’t have seen the movies in theaters anyway.

How "Les Misérables" of them. Jean Valjean got 19 years for stealing bread. 15 years is light in comparison.

DVDs?? is this article from 2006?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say this company that makes DVDs probably also makes Blu-Ray discs.

Weirdly enough, DVDs are still by far the most popular physical format.

I still buy them, but I prefer when it's a dvd/blueray/3D (if available) combo pack.

I knew they were going to start cracking down on piracy. They'll use it as an excuse to make vpns illegal.
