No traffic records have been broken this year -- the highest number of people actively sharing one episode was 350,000 -- but the interest for Game of Throneson torrent sites remains high. TorrentFreakclaims this is the fifth year in a row that the show was most pirated on torrent sites.

One noticeable trend, the blog says, is pirates moving to higher quality, 720p and 1080p videos.

The upcoming, seventh season of the hit series should arrive in mid-2017. At only seven episodes, it will be shorter than previous seasons, all of which consisted of 10 episodes.

We have no doubt, however, that the interest in the show on pirate sites will remain high.
