Ok, I did not watch this nor will I watch this, but I can say one positive thing about torrenting TV shows that almost makes it required given the networks can't give us what the torrenters give us. Look at this way typically you have to wait a few hours or more before a just aired television show will show up on the network's website or hulu or whatever. Most times however the show once put up is only in standard definition, not HD. Sure some shows get put up in HD but none of them contain surround sound audio and usually include commercials (albeit breif, but still).
With torrenting you get the show in as early as 20 to 30 minutes of it going off the air. You usually have your choice of SD or HD and if you get the HD it usually includes the surround sound audio (assuming it was broadcast with such audio). Lastly it contains no commercials.
What the networks fail to realize is that the quality of HD caps uploaded to torrent sites is a quality that they cannot match be it on their own website or hulu or otherwise. Until the networks can remove the commercials, give us the full audio, and shorten their upload times to as quickly as the torrenters, then "piracy" will not stop. But then again all that effort wouldn't matter because I have yet to see any online video rival the quality of that of a capped TV show uploaded to torrent and otherwise.
that's my two cents. I'm not saying that downloading tv shows via torrent is legal, but you get unrivaled quality with such.
Oh and don't throw the concept of nuked or bad uploads in my face because most times a repack or proper release gets uploaded even before the show still has yet to hit the network's site or otherwise.
