I've been watching Boardwalk Empire through "alternative means"; it's not something I do out of choice, it's something that I have been driven to as it's a series I really wanted to try and HBO/Sky won't make it available to me (I can't have a dish and there's no release date for DVDs or iTunes release). I would rather watch it legitimately, but that is not available to me, and I can honestly say it is the first time I've ever used Bit Torrent.
Surprised how easy and fast it was to do. Like I say, not something I would have considered if not for the channel being a "Sky exclusive". When will the content providers realise that the world is changing and if they don't provide the programmes for those of us who want to legitimately purchase them their days are truly numbered?
