China is being used over music piracy. The International Federation believes that 99% of music files in china are pirated.
Thats a shocking big number especially since the Chinese population is so big.

The average console games costs £35-40, Do you not think that is high enough already? If they raise it even more they will lose sales.
Seeing as the minimum wage is like £5 something £40 is a lot to spend on one game.
