HK DVDs, also known as "Chinese bootleg" DVDs are unlicensed goods. The reason they are referred to as HK DVD's is because these bootlegs are primarily produced in Hong Kong. These DVDs are illegal to produce, sell, or import in any country that signed the Berne Convention. In the United States it is a federal offence to import, buy, sell, or trade these goods.[1]

FX

FX, sometimes stylized as (fx), is a Bootleg DVD producer from Hong Kong. FX DVD cases usually have a small, red circle enclosing the green letters "FX" printed on the lower-left hand corner. FX DVD’s are primarily copies of officially licensed DVD’s and are often regarded as "perfect" copies. As it is with any other HK DVD manufacturer, no release is actually "perfect" but many of FX’s reproductions have few flaws.[2]
