attn Internet Brands: Google ad for bootleg Song of the South DVD
Just got this ad on the forum:
and just now this one:
Not sure if you choose what ads google feeds, but this DVD is a verified bootleg. You might want to remove that from the google ad feed, if you can.

Can it really be a bootleg if it's never been released on home video? (for all intents and purposes)
OK, fine, can it really be a bootleg if it's copied from a 20-year-old Japanese laserdisc and has never been released on home video in the US?

bootleg: something, as a recording, made, reproduced, or sold illegally or without authorization.
Yep.

This was here months ago as well. I didn't know it was a bootleg and bought one. Haven't watched it, but it was supposedly from Euro Disney or some such crap. Nice little hologram on it to prove it was legit, too. 
Teach me to trust google ads.

You think the people that made the cartoon are being cheated out of money from this bootleg? No they all died 20 years ago. Who cares?

Opps, I mean it. I'm not too verse on sitcoms from 50 years ago. And no I don't mean sitcoms from exactly 50 years ago to this day.
