This is more a rant on how hard it is to do the right thing (buy the show instead of pirating it) than anything specific to Game of Thrones.
Prayin' for a 20!

Augh, I hit this ALL THE TIME

If a film or TV series is a little older, obscure or for whatever reason tied up in red tape and completely unavailable it's really the only option.

The other thing that cheeses me off the point where I throw my hands up and just download something is if it's broadcast or released in one country but not another, is the robber baron approach to media travelling invisible map lines.

No doubt but they are unlikely to become customers in the first place.
