I certainly agree that piracy is a real problem, and that there are undoubtedly people who do as you suggest. I'm not sure, though, that one could necessarily equate high downloads volumes with piracy - there could well be other causes for it, as we've already discussed.
I do think that 100GB/day is a huge, huge amount of data. My internet traffic is about 30GB a
month, and that includes watching a fair number of programmes using video streaming (BBC iPlayer).
