No pirate paradise for Games visitors vows China

BEIJING (Reuters) - Visitors to Beijing's Olympic Games hoping to snap up cheap pirate copies of hit movies and music will be disappointed, Chinese authorities say, announcing a round-the-clock drive to stamp out bootleg sellers.

China has for years faced complaints from Western companies and politicians that it does not fight hard enough against a huge black market of counterfeit DVDs, music discs and software. Washington has launched action at the World Trade Organisation over the issue.
