Heaven for a Pirate

March 16th, 2008 · 4 Comments

There’s a big market in downtown Bandung near the town square, and part of that market is dedicated to pirated DVDs and music.  It was closed recently due to a police crackdown, but the appropriate bribes have been paid, and it has been allowed to reopen.  I went there today, and purchased the following:

  • The Simpsons Complete 8th Season (4 discs)
  • Scrubs Complete 4th Season (6 discs)
  • Seinfeld Complete 3rd Season (3 discs)
  • The Golden Compass (still in theaters!)
  • Cloverfield (still in theaters!)
  • 28 Days Later
  • LOST Season 4 (first few episodes)
  • Wedding Crashers - uncorked

That’s 18 discs folks.  And I could have bought more, because this place has EVERYTHING you could EVER want.  Grand total?  Twelve bucks.  I love this country.  :) Granted, not all of them will work, but if even half of them work, it’s money well spent.

    When you steal from Hollywood, you steal from your soul

    Hollywood is my soul? Huh?
    Hollywood stole my soul a long time ago, I’m just taking it back.
