Only bought 'pirate' CDs and DVDs once in Calis, from a man in Joseph's Bar. Possibly Hassan, he arrived on a motor scooter with a catalogue of titles, took orders then rode off returning later with the orders. To me he resembled the actor who played the Russian factory ship Captain in the film Local Hero. If this is Hassan then I would not use him again unless I could check the goods before returning home. On that occasion I paid for blank CDs, CDs of very poor quality and missing tracks, DVDs that were absolute rubbish, pastel colours, blurred images, and on some unintelligible soundtrack, on others background noise that blanked out the soundtrack and in a few cases the outline of people rising and leaving their seats in the cinema where the copy had been made. Really not worth the bother when new films, a few weeks after issue are available to buy,rent or hire in the UK at reasonable cost.
