you might want to look at the top 25 downloaded shows more than 80% are comming from free broadcast to the air tv stations
in the US 97% of the population has at least 1 tv
so cutting it down to 50% who suscribe to premium cable only is disqualifying a shit load of legal timeshifters.
BTW canada is not the only country with a piracy tax that effectively turns p2p downloads into nothing more than legally licienced contract.
so ignoring that line is also significantly reducing the legal downloads too.
