Reads "The page cannot be displayed" to me.

 

Maybe it was a spoof?

"So this DVD case is empty. Where's the movie?"

 

"Don't be silly. You play the glossy booklet!"

 

Given that a rupee is currently worth about 2.24cents, and his cards cost 1.5 rupees to produce (3.5 cents), once you add margins and licensing fees the Big 4 labels should be able to sell you music albums for oh, around $10 ??

 

The mind boggles.

My first reaction was New Zealand $? Or Aussie $? Or Singapore $?

 

But on second thought, the way the US $ has been sinking, and the time frame to get new technology to market ... US $10 might be conservative ... :)
