“Contrary to popular thinking, the rampant piracy of ‘Game of Thrones’ has not harmed the network that airs it, HBO programming president Michael Lombardo told Entertainment Weekly on Sunday, just hours before the show’s season three premiere. ‘I probably shouldn’t be saying this, but [piracy] is a compliment of sorts,’ Lombardo reportedly said. ‘The demand is there. And it certainly didn’t negatively impact the DVD sales. [Piracy is] something that comes along with having a wildly successful show on a subscription network.’ The show’s creator, George R. R. Martin, said as much earlier in March.”
