"Avatar" breaks another record, becoming the most-pirated film of 2010
By Jeff MillsDecember 22nd, 2010, 7:00 pmComments (0)Not surprisingly, illegal downloading buccaneers made box-office-shattering behemoth Avatar this year's most pirated film, at 16,580,000 downloads by TorrentFreak's count. It's a significant increase from last year's most desired digital booty, Star Trek, which was pilfered almost 11 million times. Kick-Ass, the film based on the profane kiddie comic of the same name, was ripped off a potential-profit-depleting 11.4 million times and counting in 2010. Taking the bronze was the lucrative mindbender, Inception.

1. Avatar - 16,580,000
