Ashwin Navin of ash was here is surprised to find that Wal-Mart has different standards for what they'll sell in China:
While wandering down the isles of this megastore, i was curious about the retail price of Hollywood movies and music -- especially since the same titles are available literally one block outside the door for $1 on the street (pirated of course). to my surprise, i discovered a wall of porn! not segmented by curtains or velvet ropes, but literally right above the children's movies... isn't this the same retailer that makes american magazine publishers change its covers to get shelf space in america's favorite family store??
