Well, it's stolen, so it's obviously going to be cheaper.

Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Y'know, I'm not so sure that it IS stolen. I mean, I'm not saying it isn't, just that if it is, the people who stole it put a lot of work into the box to make it look at least somewhat official. All the Paramount logos and crap.

That's because if they get caught, they can say that it's legit material even though everyone knows it's not. They just want people to believe it's official.

There's a certain Holy Trilogy which as of yet has not appeared on DVD you can get which has been artfully ripped from the Definitive Set LaserDiscs (THX, letterbox, but Han still shoots first) An acquaintance of mine bought it. Only they didn't do such a great job, and the sound is all over the place and there are big pauses at the side-changes. It looks 'official' enough, with the trademarked Logos and the box art. But it's kind of crap and doesn't include any extras.

I would be so good at making Hong Kong dubs.

That's another way of saying it's regionless.

That's another way of saying it's not legit and is pirated.
