Unfortunately, intellectual property thieves in Hong Kong (and other related areas) have copied DragonBall CDs and sell them for their own personal gain. There are two main bootleg companies that you will to come across: SonMay (SM) and EverAnime (EA). There is also another company, called "Smile Face," that has a bootleg of the first DBZ Complete Song Collection set. All put their respective logos on the back of their CDs, which makes it easy to tell the difference (other than the obvious price reduction). Many of these "companies" are actually fronts for organized crime, such as the Triads.
Do they sound any different than the original, legit releases? No. These types of bootlegs are digital copies; they sound just as great as the original. Should you buy them? Not if you can help it. Usually, the original Japanese releases come with fun extras like full color booklets, the box sets come in actual boxes, and most have other fun stuff (such as first-print runs with special extras like posters). The bootleg CDs usually have no inserts, and you are lucky to get some lyrics.
This page will focus on bootlegs that are "original" CDs, and not simply copies of already existing CDs. In other words, the companies throw different songs together from multiple CDs, and sell it as a "new" compilation CD.
Keep in mind that there are many more bootleg CDs out there; these are just the compilation ones. There are bootleg CDs of nearly all of the Hit Song Collection CDs, the "Never Ending Story" and "Daizenshuu" sets, and the Super Butôden series of discs. Make sure you know what you are buying before you purchase.
