With torrents you can get a film in minutes. With popcorn you are exposed the entire time you watch the film.

In Germany they monitor peer connections and send a payment demanding an out of court settlement. After two years they escalate to a court appearance in a remote town. If you don't show, you lose and they turn it over to debt collection.

But I have to say Birdman was a great film.
