In Response To: Re: Artistic license (Skedar) : Well, that's not exactly an imitation. It's the exact same thing: pirated.
Agreed. But imitation/pirated does not automatically equal inferior. I think many westerners, including myself, are so stuck in the brand-name culture we equate generic labels and cheaper products to being automatically inferior without a second thought. This is why everyone wants a Beamer, clothing from Nordstrom's, an education from the Ivy Leagues, and food from upscale restaurants. |
