What a Wonderful Country!

Yes, the Philippines is a wonderful country!

Where else could you buy a pirated DVD of Ice Age 3 before it appears in theaters...in front of the Intellectual Property Philippines office?!

The pirated DVD, manufactured and imported from China, is only 50 pesos ($1US).

Seeing it the next week in the theater is P150($3US)!

When the studio's actual DVD is released it will likely be P1000 ($20US).

...and we can buy it now right in front of the office that's supposed to be supporting intellectual property rights...but apparently that only applies to Philippine intellectual property.

What a wonderful country.
