'Game of Thrones' season 3 finale was the most-pirated show of 2013

It's no secret that HBO's Game of Thones is a huge target for pirates, and new info shows that popularity hasn't waned yet. This is the second year in a row Game of Thrones has achieved this dubious honor — in 2012, TorrentFreak said that each episode of season 2 was downloaded about 3.9 million times on average. Perhaps even more notable was the fact that more people torrented Game of Thrones than watched in on TV, according to TorrentFreak's estimates. Unsurprisingly, Game of Thrones had stiff competition from Breaking Bad, which was downloaded 4.2 million times.
