"Los Angeles police early Thurday arrested four men who allegedly produced 5,000 illegal copies of movies, making one of the city's biggest crackdowns on piracy to date.
The arrests were announced by Police Chief William J. Bratton at the news conference at the Grove shopping plaza, a few yards from the multiplex where police officers earlier this month made law banning videotaping inside movie theaters.
Attended by top officials, studio executive and labor union representatives, the news conference was design as a high-profile show of force in the film industry's efforts to battle the global piracy problem it claimed siphoned more than $3 billion a year from it coffers."
