Ah, I get it. Yes, very clever- that may be because the German copyright laws,
in my experience, are looser than ours- I had teachers photocopying entire
books for our class, and it was considered standard procedure! (That might
explain why books in Germany are so damned expensive, which of course starts a
nice vicous circle, but hey. :)

Have you taken a close look at the cover? Interesting... and I think it's also
amusing that the US-Remix is called "Violent". What do they think of us,
