things haven't changed that much...

you don't have to look to the past for rif offs, these days, its common to see © infringement in all forms - print too

a recent video release shows the Beverly Hills sign on the cover and I doubt that the city gave approval for this blatant rip off

the sign is copyrighted by the city of Beverly Hills and was created by Warner Brothers in the '30s...

this is mostly due to the attitude that "if they don't see it or hear it, we can't get in trouble" which runs rampant throughout society these days and the "they are doing it why can't I?" attitude - basically, no sense of responsibility...

just look at the numbers of pirated products from wallets and purses to DVDs and CDs - its outrageous!
