it's in the interest of the bootleggers to put the English audio or at least subtitles on their DVDs because they sell them internationally - just look how many suspicous anime DVDs you can find originating from the poorer asian countries on something like ebay. The UK ebay is swamped with them - they need English dialogue on them, otherwise people would go out and buy the real thing! It's easy to dismiss bootleggers as dumbasses with no buisness sense just because they're breaking the law - they ain't stupid, they fool a hell of a lot of people and make loads of money doing so.
