we had a shop right in the center of our city (actually right next to our mayor) who had a very errr ... special business-idea.
The had a lot of copy-stations. You could go there, take a look at their list and get "back-up-copies" of all the games (pc/ps1/ps2/ps3). A copy would cost around 2 bucks. The also modded ps's with several chips.
Now you might say "Wutt? That's impossibruuu". Well, their Explanation was something like this:
"All the copy-stations are managed by underaged Kids who get a small loan for their work. If you buy a copy here and walk outta the store and let's say a cop stops you right in front of our store, then it's your "Business" to Show them your "original", not ours, because we only provided the hardware and service for people who couldn't themselves because they ain't have the hardware for it at home"
Now you might think that's the most stupid Explanation you've ever heard. Truth is they stayed in their business for over 6 (!) years. And even after these 6 years they just moved on, no one forced them to close their business.
You can't imagine how crowded the place was all the time. (..i heard..)
