This is another good point. The stream sites and the torrents probably take away a big chunk of WWE business these days. But if the product is good/great then regardless of stream sites or torrents, people will buy the pay-per-views so you can't blame stream sites or torrents. It's the same way with films. If the film is great people are going to go see it despite bootlegs, steam sites, or torrents that have theatrical films early. The experience of going to the theater will more likely drive someone to see a film in the theater (big screen, surround sound, 3D, IMAX, popcorn etc.) over the quality of the film itself. Watching a PPV on your TV will be the same whether you downloaded it illegally or watch it on TV legally. Not counting terrible, terrible streams. The real issue is whether or not WWE can adapt to the changing market. Theater releases for PPVs? Readily available iPPVs that stream with HD quality? I don't know. But selling an "experience" is what gets people to the theaters. Not the film it self. Necessarily. There are exceptions.
