This time round, "The Children" managed a total of 254,114 sharers.Īustralia has always been one of, if not the, top torrenter of GoT and this season saw many Australians putting the blame on pay TV service Foxtel's exclusive deal for the show. Back in May, 207,054 people shared the same torrent file for the episode "First of his Name". The episode also broke the record for the largest "swarm" - the number of people sharing the same file. (For some scale on just how big a petabyte is, Deloitte Analytics offers this: it would take 233,000 DVDs to store a single PB.) That equates to around 2 petabytes of data. According to data from the official US ratings, "The Children", as the episode was titled, was the most watched GoT episode to date, hitting 7.1 million viewers.Ĭontinuing the ongoing trend, it was also popular with pirates, breaking the series' own torrenting records.Īccording to TorrentFreak - almost the unofficial industry body for this sort of information - the episode also saw "roughly" 1.5 million downloads in the first 12 hours after airing. Yesterday saw the airing of the final episode for season four of HBO's "Game of Thrones".
