in the "notes" bit on my facebook account, i had proudly said that i do not patronize pirated films and pirated music discs. i have had to go back on that. i still do not buy pirated copies of music/cds/albums, but we have now succumbed to buying pirated films to watch at home.
APOLOGIES
we are doing it for convenience. blame being pregnant, being busy, and not wanting to go out during the day (or even late at night) to catch a film. plus, blame the fact that sometimes i'd rather watch old films that i know are good rather than put up with the latest hollywood blockbuster. please. i'm one of those that used to camp out at greenbelt 1 on cinemanila days, armed with sweater, food and drinks to watch one artsy film after another. so...
we have bought some pirated dvds and have been having good evenings watching them after dinner. i think it was in "the expectant father" where i read that having dvd nights is a good idea. and i certainly don't expect to see the inside of a cinema in the year the baby is born (as i don't expect to hire a babysitter) and likely that the first film we will watch after all this is a kiddie one targeted at our future little one.
GUILTY. now press the play button.
cost: one pirated DVD costs anywhere between Php 50 and Php90, depending on
1) how good the copy is
2) who you are negotiating with
3) some reason i have not figured out.
yes, it can be random.
