Documents from compromised servers Sony showed that MPAA gets far less money from the "pirates" than officially declared

For many years, the rights holders publish information about the money received from the "pirates." As a rule, we are talking about dozens, if not hundreds, of millions of dollars.

Are no exception and documents from the MPAA, published in late 2013. In a press release distributed by the MPAA among the media, said about суммах $ 110 million , derived from IsoHunt, and 80 Millions , derived from Hotfile. In fact, the numbers are much more modest, although the amounts are also quite decent.

Journalists Torrentfreak found that the amount received from Hotfiles, in fact, is only US $ 4 million, not 80 million. The latter figure was announced to the press, apparently to intimidate "the pirates».

In this case, all 4 million were transferred to the MPAA, Hotfile fulfilled all the conditions of pre-trial agreement. Most likely, from 110 million to 110 million and IsoHunt from TorrentSpy - such as fiction, as well as 80 million from Hotfile.
