HBO's Richard Plepler Weighs In On Game Of Thrones Piracy, Says ‘Maybe' On Broadband-Only HBO
When TechCrunch attended the San Francisco premiere of Game of Thrones Season 3, we didn't just ask the cast members about their smartphones. I also had a few minutes to talk to HBO CEO Richard Plepler, when I asked him about the show's status as the most-pirated program of 2012. "Well, look, it's the good news and the bad news, right?" Plepler said. "The good news is that a lot of people want to see it. Over 12.5 million people are watching it legally. And most of that pirating is occurring overseas. We're going to do what we can to bring that down, and we're going to do what we can, obviously, to bring that down in the United States as well."
