In Lebanon, many electronics like PlayStations, DVD players, etc. come "upgraded" (the local term), where they are able to read fake and copied CD's.

That means fake/copied Cd's can be sold for cheap and the need for original copies is virtually none. That's why I can't just go and buy it.

Also, Flight Simulator is a hard Cd to come by here [even the fake ones], that's why I downloaded it.

And since I shipped all my things from the USA to here, none of my systems are "upgraded".

I guess that clears my case a little bit. lol
