　　Nowadays, it is known to all that China has become a place of rampant pirated products: pirated CDs, pirated VCDs, pirated DVDs, pirated books… They are available everywhere and we are so accustomed to the phenomenon that we won’t feel it strange to see pirated copies of the latest movies even before they are on shown in theatres.
　　The reasons for the phenomenon, which are obvious to all, can be listed as follows:　First of all, the price of the products that are pirated is too high that most people cannot afford it. Second, the price of the pirated products is much lower and, in some cases,　the pirated product doesn’t necessarily mean low quality. Also playing a part is the local government. Some officials give top priority to economy. They will tolerate, or even encourage, anything so long it can bring them financial income.
　　But the pirated products really do much harm. First, they infringe intellectual property rights. Second, they offend against the rules of the market. As a result of piracy, companies investing in invention will inevitably run bankruptcy and our society will stop where it is.
　　No advance. No progress. In view of the seriousness of the problem, effective measures should be taken: for one thing, it is high time that people all over China realized the harm of piracy; for another, the government should issue strict laws and regulations in order to put the situation under control.

　　At present, piracy is becoming uNPRecedentedly visible in China, Any product, like tape, CD and hi-tech device can be copied, not to mention book. Shortly after a newly-published book hits the shelves, people will unsurprisingly find its pirated counterparts in the stores. It has been widely believed that piracy has caused a great loss to legitimate producers, inventors and authors in many ways. To start with,pirated products often cost much less than the original ones, so they enjoy unbeatable advantage in price in spite of their relatively poor quality.
　　The original ones, on the contrary, sell poorly.As far as pirated books are concerned, they do great harm to the authors/ reputation due to their misprints. In the long run, pirated products may also have negative impacts on customers since those legitimate producers’ enthuslasm may be greatly hurt by the fact that some customers are more indined to purchase pirated products. In my opinion, it’s high time that the govement called on everyone to start the battle against piracy. Besides, as customers, we should develop our consciousness to resist pirated products. And law should be strictly carried out to ban piracy from spreading any further.
　　Only in this way can we put an end to piracy and create a healthy environment for both customers and producers.
