The World’s most downloaded show is an anime
Website Newteevee has posted a list of most BitTorrented TV shows on week ending June 30, and the number 1 spot went to the classic anime One Piece, beating such heavyweight programs as Lost, Prison Break and Heroes.
As the site puts it:
“Rankings are based on global download volumes as measured by swarm sizes, swarm speeds and file sizes. These data reflect the collective global popularity of all available show content from all seasons current and past, not just the most recent broadcast.”
One Piece started broadcasting on Japanese television in 1997 and is still showing, managing to maintain its popularity throughout its lifetime.
