What book counterfeiting costs


What book counterfeiting costs 06/17/2005 03:34 PM
Cory Doctorow: With all this talk of ebook "piracy" it's pretty interesting to read about some of the nitty-gritty of actual book counterfeiting, the kind that results in high-quality copies of physical books that are easily mistaken for the authorized items:
After numerous calls to Kinkos and awkward conversations with vanity presses and POD publishers (kids, and adults, should not try this at home), The Book Standard staffers determined that a potential Potter pirate would have to team up with a particularly unscrupulous—or clueless—printer in order to produce a significant number of illegal copies of a book. One estimate suggested that 10,000 copies of a book about the expected size of Harry Potter—672 pages—could be printed for less than $30,000, which puts the cost per book at $3.00. Shipping and handling is another matter, but could be figured at 10% of the production cost. Sell each copy at $10, and your criminal entrepreneur is raking in approximately a 200% profit.

Are People Really Counterfeiting
Nintendo Games From The 80s?
04/14/2005 01:40 AM
Not quite sure what's going on here, but it certainly sounds like an AP reporter might be a bit confused -- or, at least, has written a confusing article. The article claims that four people were a rrested for selling counterfeit Nintendo consoles -- and even says 60,000 counterfeit consoles were seized. Of course, it's not entirely clear why they would be faking consoles instead of the software, so in the very next sentence, the story switches and says that they were counterfeiting games. Which games? "Donkey Kong," "Mario Brothers," "Duck Hunt," "Baseball" and others. Donkey Kong, Mario Brothers, Duck Hunt and Baseball?!? Yes, that's Nintendo's cream of the crop from somewhere in the mid-eighties. Is there really so much demand for Duck Hunt that it needs to be counterfeited? What's next, Mike Tyson's Punchout?
