Sorry, but I'm with Jon on this one.
I am morally opposed to bootleg DVDs because they are not authorized by the owner of the work in question, and said owner receives no compensation from their sale.
Imported DVDs are a different story entirely. If the U.K. copyright holder has gone through the proper channels to obtain the rights to release a film on DVD in the U.K., then I don't see any problem with purchasing that DVD from the U.K. As long as he has properly procured the rights to the product, why should I be concerned about where the seller is located geographically?
