Also, they just translate estimated number of downloads to potentially sold tickets 1:1 (they always have). As if a pirate would actually watch all that shit if they had to pay for it. Many probably even don't after download (like Steam games on sale).

Especially if it's torrents on private trackers where you download stuff you don't want just to build up ratio
