Stop selling CDs in open air in Malaysia...



In a new effort to stop the huge piracy in Malaysia the Domestic Trade and Cosumer Affairs minister from Malaysia has stopped the selling of CDs in open places. People can't sell one single cd anymore.

According to the daily newspaper The Star, Muhyiddin cited studies showing that the majority of licensed distributors of CDs sell pirated and pornographic CDs together with their legitimate wares.

More than 5,000 traders in nighttime markets, shops and roadside stalls are involved in selling CDs, he said, and more than 70 percent of them deal in pornographic and pirated materials.

With the ban, CDs can be sold only in legally recognized shopping lots and shopping malls.

So now u can't even buy your latest warez on the street corner
