First Four Episodes of Game of Thrones Season 5 Leak Online
Ashley Allen / 10 years ago
The first four episodes of Season 5 of Game of Thrones have leaked online, with rumours of more to follow. The timing is devastating for HBO, with the channel debuting Season 5 of the critically-acclaimed show both on cable and its new live streaming platform, HBO Now.
Game of Thrones is already the most illegally downloaded show in history, and after the appearance of the four episodes online early on Sunday morning, they have been downloaded over 50,000 times, with that number rising all the time.
After finding the first episode on an undisclosed torrent site and watching the first few seconds (for science), I can reveal that the video file is 480p and watermarked, so – assuming the other three episodes are of a similar format – quality purists (of which I am one) might be best advised to wait.
