Everybody loves Game of Thrones, a fact that should be validated by the season four premiere's monster ratings as well as the fact that HBO has just renewed it for seasons five and six—the premiere also crashed HBO's streaming service HBO Go, something that hasn't happened since the True Detective finale last month. That doesn't even scratch the surface of how many viewers the episode pulled in: Next we have to take a look at the numbers of people who illegally downloaded the episode.
According to data gathered by TorrentFreak, over a million people have already downloaded Game of Thrones' season four premiere via a torrent site. Torrentfreak previously reported that Game of Thrones was the most pirated show of 2013 and 2012. Looks like people will get their Game of Thrones no matter what.
