yeah, i torrented the first few seasons and subscribed myself for season 4.
making quality fucking television is how you make money, not by trying and failing to stop piracy.
I became so eager to consume the show, that I paid for NowTV so I could legally stream it much sooner than pirates ha fit available, and I'd get up an hour earlier than I needed to for work just to watch it so I didn't have it spoiled.
Uh? You mean they didn't profit at all from the insane merchandising? Maybe they need to have a conco or two with George Lukas than, because the GoT merchandise was off the rails
Hollywood Accounting LOL
They destroyed themselves faster than the pirates ever could.
Didn't the FTC just post new rules about sponsored content.
I did pay for all seasons, but we could only get it legally through a horrible HBO Nordic app with insanely poor quality, so yeah I did also put in some effort in watching the series in a little more decent quality, but it’s just weird how low quality all streaming options were.
They should have canceled it after season 4, we all would be better without the abominations that followed.
If it's true that pircay nearly destroyed GoT, that means that we as pirates have power. We're a counter balance against ridiculous payment schemes and arbitrary limiting of content.
