Article Abstract:
Thailand's major entertainment companies are seeking the help of pirates to produce cheaper CD's and Dvd's. The sales for these companies has been declining due to internet file swapping and piracy. The risk involved is the danger of these pirates producing high-grade imitations, using the master prints, art and literature. The solution is to work with the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI) certified companies like Dyntec Disc production.
