The horror

CCTV just ran a news feature on the nightmare possibility that someone might copy the official broadcast of Olympic events and then distribute it in a pirated or unauthorized form.

I can barely imagine the horror of some group in China copying someone else's proprietary material and distributing it outside the proper channels.
