Chinese software pirates

Earlier this week a Chinese counterfeiting gang that sold at least $2 billion worth of bogus Microsoft Corp. software were sentenced Wednesday to prison terms of up to 1 ½ years to 6 ½ years, which is quite tough concerning earlier Chinese Court cases involving piracy. The software was found in 36 different countries and in multiple languages which isn’t surprising considering the speed fire up the work. Although Microsoft along with the RIAA and along with the government is cracking down on these pirates they will never see the end of this road. Not only are there millions of pirates but most do because of one simple fact, that fact is the price of software and the game today that people just can’t afford. You used to able to go out and be a able to buy a $35 game but now the prices range from $59 to $69 and the same goes for software which is hiking up the ladder. This is a game that will continue to go on for years and will only end in hard feelings spending a trillion dollars trying to quarrel it.
