Hollywood to reward for piracy tips



If your cashflow is currently lacking, you could make yourself a pirate hunter and start looking for manufacturers of fake DVDs. Evertyime you find one and give the U.S. film industry association a good tip, you will be rewarded up to $150,000!



To fight rampant piracy of movies in Asia, a major U.S. film industry association is setting up a $150,000 fund to pay rewards for tips that lead to successful raids on manufacturers of fake DVDs.

The Motion Picture Association, which did not say how much it would pay for each tip, also has set up a 24-hour confidential telephone hot line and is publicizing an e-mail address to encourage people to report DVD piracy in Asia.

The association estimates the film industry has annual losses of up to $598 million in Asia and $3 billion worldwide from piracy.
