... which doesn't help the case that the leaked movie has hurt profits.

TPB may have over 3.5 million registered users (and over 21 million peers currently), but there are still a whole LOT of internet users who are clueless regarding torrents or how to download free stuff. And a lot of those users will still go out to see movies, buy CDs/DVDs, and pay for software even though they can get it for free.

(And studies like this don't help their case either - Study: Pirates 10x more likely to pay for music)
