Did you know that one out of every four albums bought on Amazon is counterfeit?!
Chinese counterfeiters are overrunning the site with fake disks that often cost nearly as
much as the official versions and are increasingly difficult to distinguish from the real
goods.
The RIAA launched an investigation in August to see just how extreme the problem truly
is. And after placing 194 CD orders based on top search results, 44 CDs were fakes.
What’s even worse, however, is that Amazon themselves fulfilled 18 counterfeit CDs and
not individual sellers.
Most of the products can be traced back to one manufacturing plant in China.
Annnndddd while Amazon is trying to figure out a process to identify these pirates and put
a halt to hosting illegal items… I’m out here trying to get a cheap album!
Don’t figure it out too soon!
What do you guys think about think about this whole counterfeiting business?
