boot·leg
/ˈbo͞otˌleɡ/
Normally, “bootleg†refers to goods illegally sold and distributed, without proper taxation, and at a loss to the original manufacturer of the goods. This can apply to anything, from booze to cigarettes to designer jeans, etc., as long as it is sold and distributed by other than legal means. Today the term is primarily used to describe stolen audio/video recordings that are illegally sold and distributed on the Internet.
I know all about counterfeiting, pirating and bootlegging because I sell bootleg CDs and other material on the Internet. Give me a call if you need anything.
There are so many bootleg products (not to mention bootleg games though) not just in my country but around the world. (Have you ever seen the Michaelsoft Binbows sign, New Super Mario Bros. The Hedgehog, amiiqo, those iPhone stuff, and Game Child?) It may look weird but it sounded too funny for people who are hardly looking for real stuff. And later on, I've found a page called Bootleg Stuff and a subreddit called r/crappyoffbrands, which two of them showcase a truckload of bootleg products. I almost kept laughing at those pics!
Now did you guys have bootlegs around? Discuss.
