Considering some of the bootleg movies I’ve seen in my time, the quality couldn’t be any worse than what they were doing before.

They're getting worse at times, not even joking. Looking like they were recorded on a flip phone

Lol the shitty quality I never minded as much (and usually great chunks of the movie missing) but later on they started doing gambling advertisements troughout the movies, and that made them completely unwatchable. Shame really, and I'm pretty sure it was just some leeches tossing those in to perfectly good camrips, I don't even think it was the bootleggers themselves doing it.
