Wired- Three seasons in and Game of Thrones still continues to set records — both legitimate and otherwise. After hitting ratings milestones earlier this year, it now has yet another accomplishment to boast about: the most pirated show of 2013.
Just let me watch Westworld in peace, without crashes. That's all I ask.
Existing HBO subscribers on Amazon will be able to use the HBO Max app at no additional cost.
It was heard that a comprehensive law enforcement action targeted scene release group “SPARKS” and its associates earlier this month.
Maybe HBO doesn't care..
i dont think they really care, because it is a cable service, they already get their money from the show, so i dont think it bothers them much, i anything it drives up DVD and digital sales of GOT.
People who are pirating it were never likely to buy the episodes anyways... and they know this.
Also, its not aired in alot of countries so this probably makes up most numbers of the downloads.
Either way, I believe HBO don't really care much on the piracy as they probably believe it is good promotion and probably one of the reason its popularity has spread globally.
I even met GRRM the author of the series and he actually joked about it being the top rated pirated show in Australia at Suprnova Pop Culture Expo... lots of laughs there. lol.
the show is popular in countriest where it's not aired.

I live in the Middle East, the only way to watch American shows is by Torrents, specially Newer Seasons.
