I'd be interested in some numbers on people who purchase tons of content on Steam yet visit EZTV each week for the few shows they follow. I wonder how many of those people would have just purchased a season pass for the show on Steam were it available...
My guess is that there are a lot of people who purchase games on Steam but torrent shows/movies, particularly if they live outside the US. Surely they know these games are available for free as well?
I think it's a bit naive to think that getting stuff for free is the main reason people torrent.
Why aren't they already buying a season pass on Itunes or Amazon instant?
I'd venture that people who buy a lot on steam yet don't pay for TV shows are mostly buying multiplayer games that cannot be pirated and still give the same experience.
