" Cheap imitations â€â€? "bamba" in Peruvian slang â€â€? can be had of movies, music CDs, designer clothing, books For now, most pirated music, software, movies and video games in Latin America are burned onto blank discs with home computers, but clandestine high-volume factories are cropping up Clothing merchants sell fake Polo, Izod, Adidas and Nike shirts and Benetton and Diesel jeans Across Lima, a city of 8 million, street markets are filled with bogus Marlboro cigarettes, Johnny Walker scotch, Calvin Klein cologne There's little to deter pirates The pirating of movies, music and books in Peru cost U The wide availability of the DVDs wasn't a surprise After a bit of haggling, he offers a fake Peruvian license in an hour for 100 soles, or less than $30 'Passion' Demonstrates Peru Piracy Woes Apr 18, 6:47 PM EST Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ" made a controversial debut in Peru, but not because viewers found the film violent or anti-Semitic So far, the music industry has been hit hardest S Counterfeits are considered almost a fundamental consumer right by poor and rich alike in this South American country " Spanish subtitles superimposed on English ones translate the movie's Latin and Aramaic dialogue And she isn't bothered the government misses out on tax revenue At the Polvos Azules bazaar two blocks from the Justice Palace, a cacophony of salsa, rock, pop and techno serenades customers checking the thousands of movie DVDs and music CDs at dozens of stalls international driver's license or the European Union one," says a street hustler who takes orders along Azangaro, an infamous alley of shops behind the Justice Palace offering an array of bogus paperwork And documents, too: In no time, anybody can become a doctor, lawyer or just about any other "professional" with ready-to-frame license, university diploma and certificates to prove it It was the 95-cent pirated DVD copies swamping the streets nearly a month before the film's opening that caused the uproar, prompting distributors to rush the movie into theaters early The appeal is obvious: Legitimate music shops offer paltry selections of $20 CDs in a nation were police and teachers earn less than $250 a month on average "See â€â€? it's high quality S The U "We have a rogue culture â€â€? a wise-guy culture," says Martin Moscoso, head of copyright protection at Peru's consumer protection agency, Indecopi "The originals are too expensive," says Mariana, a 36-year-old housewife buying a bootleg video game for her son at a bazaar in Lima's middle-class Surco district Last year, authorities published a decree ordering all government offices to stop using bootleg computer software by April 2005 Other pirated movies come dubbed or subtitled in Spanish iipa Suspended sentences are the norm That's fine with shoppers But after a quick trip to another stand, she returns with news For a few dollars more, there are copies that â€â€? like the legitimate versions â€â€? allow the viewer to play the movie dubbed or subtitled in several languages The early bootleg versions of "Passion" that showed up in the capital were copies of shoddy videos made with hand-held cameras sneaked into American theaters, says one vendor, Valeri â€â€?â€â€?â€â€?
