Gideon, I'll debate with you since at least you can remain civil and mature unlike DamianJ who resorts to childish insults as soon as his position is questioned.

But you are guilty of the same thing you are accusing me of. You say I am trying to draw a correlation and calling it fact, yet you are doing the exact same thing, just using a different source.

But how about this? For the sake of argument I will concede that Wired is the ultimate source material on the matter. But right under the article you are citing is a related article by Wired that is titled:

Is Netflix Reducing Illicit File Sharing? Depends on Which Stats You Believe

Quote:
But what do the numbers say? Wired.com asked two leading companies that monitor big chunks of the internet ? Arbor Networks and Sandvine, and the results were, well, inconclusive.
So according to your very own source, the debate on whether or not Netflix has had an impact on piracy is inconclusive at best. It also speaks to my other point that P2P is simply falling in popularity as the main file sharing vehicle and other methods are gaining like file lockers.

So Gideon, if your own source material calls your argument "inconclusive" do you really want to continue pinning your whole debate on it?
