I already took all I could from Stweeve. I don't hear him any more.

Australians may hold the unenviable title of one of the worst offenders for illegally downloading TV series, but as hit shows from the US keep on coming and paying for content becomes easier, it seems like we are developing a conscience.
Australia was the highest illegal downloader of smash-hit fantasy series Game of Thrones last year - about 10 per cent of all dodgy downloads - and, according to torrentfreak.com, Perth was the sixth-highest city in the world for stealing episodes of the show.
But there is evidence of a growing desire to watch shows without the guilt as more people turn to sites such as iTunes and Australia-based Quickflix that allow users to download or stream TV shows for a fee or subscription.
While Game of Thrones was the most pirated show last year (4.28 million for a single episode), 10 episodes - bought legally - feature in iTunes' top 50 most popular downloads. Other shows such as Homeland, The Walking Dead and Dexter, which feature prominently in illegal statistics, also top legal download charts.
Mad Men did not crack a mention at the top of torrentfreak's charts but was a popular choice on iTunes. Dexter is Quickflix' number one.
This of course bodes well for the quarterly!
