Just a quick reminder to not discuss any plot details of the leaked season 5 episodes until they have officially aired on television. I'm sure you understand this already as this is a no spoiler thread but better to be safe. Thanks.
Not many would have low enough standards to watch the leaked copies. Non-HD and no 5.1.
Going back to Thrones been the most pirated TV show out there I think there'll be loads watching it. There's already a few here watching it. I'd normally be all over watching things as soon as humanly possible but a load of us get together on Monday nights for GoT and I don't want to have already seen it. There was nothing more awesome than all the emotions that ran through six of us simultaneously as Oberyn got his head smashed in.
By the way, on the topic of spoilers, once an episode has aired, are we 100% free to discuss the events in that episode without needing spoiler tags ?
I'll be watching them when they're released, though I suspect other people I know won't be able to resist the leaks. I've read the books though so I'm not too concerned about spoilers, unless they deviate a lot from the books.
Considering Game of thrones is often reported to be one of the most pirated shows, I bet HBO are screwing that half a season of episodes have leaked before airing. There will be spoilers everywhere by lunchtime I bet.
Well there have been synopsis' of the first few episodes around for a while if you knew where to look, hopefully the spoilers won't spread any further than they already had.
I think the joke is on all the people that watch these four episodes early, that's then a five week wait for them to watch the 5th episode, so... yeah, I'd rather get one a week than 4 in one week, and have to wait four/five weeks for the 5th.

That's wonderful, especially when most people have jobs that typically start between 6am and 9am.
It does mean though that they can record them and fast forward through the breaks later though.
I'm not going to be downloading as me and my brother watch together so we usually just wait til 9 but I might take this route just to skip ads.
OMG. The first four episodes are just sitting there. I've been itching to see Game of Thrones season 5 for months and months and now the first four are there I am just thinking no. Don't do it. Stupid, stupid brain.
I watch the "illegal" version and then buy the boxset when it's released. I don't see the problem with that. Also the quality isn't that bad. Not on my computer.

What were you expecting?
Nothing specific
The premiere episode's quality was fine.
Doctor Who had three episodes leak last year.

Oh please do be!
I've just checked the beginning of each episode and the quality seems fine
Dont worry, I raise my standards considerably when I buy the annual blu ray set.
If by fine you mean watchable then yes, it is fine.
Im half way through Episode 2 and loving it, of course it will mean by the End of the Day I will be on a 4 week Hiatus awaiting Episode 5! Lol
Well. There has to be a negative for the pluses one gains... I think one is enough for now. Just needed to 'wet me whistle'...!

Once it has aired on TV it is fine.
The trouble is whether it is US or UK TV.
Most UK viewers should avoid this thread on Sunday night until it has been shown on Sky on the Monday night.
Just means most people will download/watch online from elsewhere.
They Are, just not for the first episode.
They have a deal with a cinema chain for the Premiere episode so can't show that before it's shown in the Cinema.
Eps 2 - 10 will be shown first on Sky at 2,00 am Monday morning.

Yep - I imagine that's the case.

I must resist...
