China has made remarkable progress in cracking down on the piracy of video-audio products since last October when the Ministry of Culture launched a nationwide anti-piracy campaign.
Local anti-piracy task forces have targeted over 30 "brands" of pirated video compact discs (VCD), and so far 6.02 million illegal video-audio products, including 3.16 million VCDs, have been confiscated, dealing a heavy blow against rampant piracy in China. In the past few months, 4,000 illegal video-audio shops were shut down, and 1,700 dealers had their licenses canceled, according to official figures.
Thanks to this effective crackdown, the sales of legal video-audio products have been increasing.
