Bummed on finding that dream job? Come, join the Asian profession: piracy!
Yeah! I mean, most people indiscreetly support the piracy culture that is now so ingrained into Malaysian life. After all, why buy a good quality copy album of an artist you like when you can get a pirated copy that has near-same (or slightly lower, normally cannot hear the difference one) quality, especially since you only want two or three songs from the entire album? Why pay RM10 to watch a movie where you have to squeeze in with an absolutely aggravating mix of people that cannot behave decently in a cinema when you can get a RM5 DVD clear copy of said same show, to watch at your own leisure?
Why?
Like the store says: Why Pay More?
Really lar, iTunes did wonders selling a song at 99 cents. Only thing the buggers do was make online purchasing available in Malaysia. But thankfully there are stores like Victoria Music Station and Rock Corner that do have CDs going on for some RM35. That's a RM10 difference you know! Singles are still not worth it, unless you're after the B-sides that you can't get elsewhere.
Not that I'm so stuck-up that I only buy original. If I really like it, then only I support it and will get the original la. After all, sometimes generic sudah cukup. See what you're after la. Just one song? Need whole album meh? Singles CD oso costs RM25 already. Where to find Zoolander DVD around here that you can grab off-the-shelf? Plus who wants to take the trouble really to go all the way to Singapore to catch Brokeback Mountain 'cos they won't show it here?
Should watch Sepet also, open your eyes a bit. Isn't all fun and games, this job.
End of nonsense.

Yes. Brokeback had all the hype in S'pore, although very pricey at the start of it.
