"Game of Thrones" is a record breaker! It seems that the show's Season 4 finale, "The Children," has set the record for illegal viewing of a television show. Fortunately, no one is very upset about this.
《权力的游戏》绝对是个记录打破者。看来《权力的游戏》第四季结局集《森里之子》又要破在播美剧非法下载量记录了。幸运的是，似乎没有人为此难过。

According to TorrentFreak, more than 1.5 million people downloaded the "Game of Thrones" final episode in the first 12 hours after its initial airing on Sunday (June 15). The rate of illegal viewing has slowed only slightly since then -- as many as 7.5 million downloads are expected in the first week after the show aired. That's more than the initial legal ratings number of 7.1 million.
据TorrentFreak网站，在《权力的游戏》第四季结局集开播的前12小时里，非法下载量就已经达到了150万。按照这个水平预计，在结局集开播的一周内下载量将有望达到750万次，这个数字比该剧710万的收视人数还要多。

HBO isn't likely to get upset about this. Time Warner's Jeff Bewkes has been quoted as saying that the piracy numbers for "Game of Thrones" are "better than an Emmy" when it comes to gauging the show's popularity.
作为播出电视台，HBO电视台似乎并不为如此高的非法下载量而懊恼。时代华纳公司的Jeff Bewkes曾经说过，《权力的游戏》比艾美奖还要受欢迎，这也是从另一个方面说明这部剧是有多受欢迎。

Based on this newest data, "Game of Thrones" is really, really popular.
现在根据这个数据来看，《权力的游戏》是真的真的很受欢迎。
