- Variety, Wednesday, May 20, 2015 3:57 PM
The sixth episode of HBO's “Game of Thrones” was downloaded from peer-to-peer sites 3.5 million times, marking a new record for the show, Variety reports. The piracy figures come from Excipio, which tracks piracy on file-sharing sites, but not streaming services -- meaning that the total number of people who've viewed a pirated version of the show likely is higher than 3.5 million.
