Slightly OT: A Russian acquaintance told me that as soon as any major movie or new video game is released in the US, they can buy it for $2 in Russia. He learned to speak English from these movies and games.
Not OT at all. The Chechen crime gangs run those bootleg rackets by and large.
My son is serving with the US Army in the boondocks of Afghanistan. He told me that they can buy DVDs of new movies within two weeks of the initial movie release in the theaters. They can buy them at the local market.
