The art of counterfeiting...

You can buy pirated CDs and DVDs all through out Mexico. I just read today that 70% of Mexicans in major cities admit to buying pirated media.

You can buy the discs for 10 pesos on the street, subway, or in mercados. Normally the selection of counterfeits is limited to American Top 40 and Regional Mexican Music. Music I'm not normally into.

At the Mercado Lagunilla they have Alt-counterfeit stands.


Pirated arthouse DVDs


Faked indie rock discs


Phony electro CDs
