I would find it funny if it wasn't trying to stop people downloading stuff

Trying their damned hardest to make it look like you'll be unpopular for doing that, when in reality, you'd just get everyone running to you saying 'get us a copy'

It's the worst advert ever apart from that one with the song that goes something like "The more we get together, together, together..."

GRRRRR.

PLUS!

Wtf is it trying to acheive? Most of the people who download knock-off films and music probably couldn't give a **** about the supposed 'negative image' the advert tries to portray. I know I don't.

I love the fact that those people who do the adverts most likely do it themselves. Everyone has done some sort of copyright. Hypocrites.

That's because the negative attitude doesn't exist, however hard this advert tries!

And I think maybe they should have a more serious ad for this kind of thing- it’s so annoying, it just makes you want to go download something.

Ah stuff it, if I'm gonna be a knock off Nigel I might as well do it properly and get everything I want.

But what annoys me even more is that the song doesn't even rhyme!

"Knock off Nigel sells knock off DVD's"

At least find a name that rhymes with DVD, it might sound better.

Nigel looks sweet and they're all picking on him.

I'm gonna ring him up and tell him to call Citizens Advice Bureau to get some advice about bullying in the workplace.



I bet they're also all secretly going "Psst, Nigel, Pass us up a copy of the Mama Mia movie pls?"
