Warner fights pirates by slashing prices - new DVDs for $1.5

Warner Home Video has begun trial sales in China of a movie DVD priced at US $1.50. This is the same price as a pirate copy, but it is legal.

To get its product down to that price level, Warner has had to skimp a bit on the packaging. It is shoving the cheaper DVD into a cardboard envelope.

only way we'll get it at that price is if we move to China; people in China don't make $3000/month, rather $300...

well, the thing is, you're not selling to the peasants who make 1$ a day.

you're selling it in the few big cities, where people do make more money than you think. 1.5$ really isnt that much for them either.
