According a "friend"; Game of thrones gets downloaded by many tens of thousands in the first 24 hours. Episodes appear about 15 minutes after screening. House of cards didn't make it to the torrents until 2 days after release and the number

If you take the time to read some of Jeff Atwood's older posts, you will notice more than a few of his posts about people are unsympathetic. He is good at communicating tech issues but crap at describing people issues.
