I have been searching for a bit and I have uncovered more copied reviews.

I'll look for more tomorrow - as I'm watching the Truman Show on BBC1 at the moment. Anyone else found anymore copies and anyone else watching TS?

If you copy the first paragraph of the review you think has been copied , then paste it all in a search engine....then normally only bout 1 site comes up , because it matches exactly to the start of someone elses review, and if no sites come up it must not be a copy , or you need a better search engine :p

"well you got to admit you have got better things to do with your time than to search for copied reviews."

Well...no - actually. I was quite bored, so I enjoyed doing it!

"p:s how do you search for copied reviews (using searhc engines or something (just wondering) )"

You can use any search engine but I downloaded Copernic 2001 Basic to search 10 engines at once! It's so much more efficient.
