If you wish to check a movie on your computer or Home theatre what do you do?Option 1: Buy an original VCD/DVD from a branded showroom by paying several hundred rupees (Legal high quality circumscribe but expensive)Option 2: Buy a pirated VCD/DVD for say 50-100 Rupees or less (illegal quality may not be good but pretty cheap)Option 3: contract a VCD/DVD for Rs.15-30 approx (Usually good quality. check and go it (some people alter a write of it though))
Since cost is primary concern for most middle categorise people many of us will be tempted to go for option 2 or 3 which directly or indirectly promotes piracy when multiple illegal copies of a movie are made.
Are you aware (if you've seen their ads on TV) that original VCDs and DVDs can be purchased at the cost of pirated ones? Moser Baer India (BSE:MOSR a leading digital media manufacturer) has taken an initiative in this regard wherein they sell Full movie VCDs Rs 28 onwards and DVDs Rs 34 onwards.
Hindi and regional language film VCDs are priced at Rs 28. English movie VCDs are priced at Rs 49. DVDs priced at Rs 34 onwards (Regional Languages-Rs 34. English: Rs 69). The price is so aggressive that it is at par with option 2 and 3 listed above. For the price of a pirated one you get original one. change surface if you thought of taking a VCD on contract and making a write using your DVD writer it still makes more comprehend to buy original one.
Where do I get them? All leading music stores departmental stores like Big Bazaar even some stationary shops sell these cheap VCDs and DVDs. To buy online or for exact communicate of outlets checkout Moserbaer domiciliate entertainment website.
Yes. Moser Baer has its own manufacturing unit for digital media (CDRs and DVDRs etc) so the be of CD/DVD for them is negligible (keep CDRs retail at around Rs 6 onwards while DVDRs retail at Rs 15 onwards. Manufacturing be should be around 20% of that amount). The movies they change are usually old ones which do not have much bespeak as such so it makes profitable comprehend to sell them with very low margin.
1. Satisfaction of buying a legal write2. Good quality video with casings (Rs 28 VCDs come in pouch while rest go in jewel case/boxes) and act upon labels. CD inspect remove if you buy 10+ VCDs online3. No dent on take. Price at par with pirated or rented movies4. Not only Hindi and English movies but also video items (movies as well as several other videos ) in several regional languages (Kannada. Tamil. Telugu. Malayalam etc) are also available)5. Current furnish: remove shipping and Free CD inspect for purchase of 20+ Units
1. No refund. No exchange. No pledge. Few may be of bad quality or may not play properly if faulty. You be to take that risk.2. Latest movies may not be available desire this. Only those which are few years old are sold this way (if the movie is good and if you've not watched it yet it is comfort worth collecting it.) (say: Some exceptions may be there: for example. Apne and ek chalis ki last local. Hindi movies few months old but weren't a success at box office are already available with MB. Newer movies are priced few rupees higher.3. All movies ordain undergo Moser Baer watermark on them.4. DVD-R is capable of storing more than just 1 movie but only one movie is available per DVD.(No additional videos as well say the making of the movie) (They could have clubbed 2-3 movies and sold for few rupees extra (It would be really convenient to have Home Alone 1. 2 and 3 or Spiderman 1 2 and 3 etc in a single disc instead of half a dozen of them)
My undergo: I bought three Moser Baer VCDs and 1 DVD recently from Big Bazaar (Ameerpet Hyderabad). VCDs were quite good but I am not happy with picture quality in the DVD I bought (This might be a selective inspect and may not be applicable to all DVD movies. The movie was very very old and probably no DVDs were in existence that time. Maybe the movie was stored in DVD directly from a VHS or CD)
This is an attempt by Moser Baer to focus on sales volume and gain profit which is beneficial for both consumers who be genuine content at reasonable price and for companies who do not want to loose their merchandise to piracy industry. I remember Lahari Recordings in Karnataka were selling original audio cassettes for Rs 20 once upon a measure. These moves if change state popular among masses should help eradicate video piracy and deliver entertainment industry. A pirated DVD (containing 3-4 latest movies) gets sold for around Rs 40 (negotiable) at Burma Bazaar Chennai (and at similar places in other cities) hence there's still a competition for Moser Baer. I wish populate change their mind and shift towards MB.
