Police arrested three Chinese nationals and seized 71,463 DVDs and equipment worth RM300,000 early Wednesday morning. State Police Chief SAC (I) Datuk Mohd Rodwan Mohd Yusof said the arrests and seizure was made during separate raids by the police's commercial crime division.

The first raid was carried out at about 1.15am at a double-storey semi-detached house in Kampung Lapan, Tengkera where, two Chinese men, aged 30 and 33, were arrested. A follow-up raid on an apartment in Taman Kenanga Mewah at about 3.30am resulted in the arrest of a 19-year-old Chinese man. Police seized 14,137 pirated DVDs of various titles and another 3,326 pornographic DVDs. Besides this, 12 computers equipped with 89 DVD burners and 87 bottles of inks were seized.

The DVDs were meant for distribution in Malacca, Muar, Cameron Highlands and Penang. The syndicate could produce some 75 DVDs per minute at full operation.

Wah lan, their customers should all upgrade to bit torrents and downloads from the internet.

Technology is free. I bet these pirates did the same, downloaded stuff from others, put it on DVD and sold it for huge huge profit.

Let's do the math: one blank disc is $1 (at the most)
downloading is free, but if you include broadband services, maybe $40 a month, which works out to be just slightly over a $1 day

DVD toasting Equipment: price ranges. let's say they use hardware encoding, the DVD recorders cost $2k? Software encoding - just pay for the computer. Software probably ripped from somewhere anyway.

Just using this set up alone, the pirates could churn out more than 500 discs each day. Each disc has a street value of between $5-$10.

Imagine the profits
