56% of all torrent traffic is tv show idiot
your pulling numbers out of your ass
every person who has cable and is downloading those shows are timeshifting content they paid for because
they paid for that cable
torrents are a replacement for the pvr
A lot ot technically savvy people have been using them as such specifically because they are superior
it basically an infinite hard drive pvr that records every show and never forgets them, no pvr on the market does that.
