Martin Scorsese’s R-rated The Wolf of Wall Street and Disney’s family-friendly Frozen were the two films illegally downloaded the most in 2014. According to Excipio, an IT company specializing in detecting digital copyright infringements, both films were downloaded about 30 million times by torrent users.
Sitting in the number three spot is RoboCop, however it earned that place on the list from combining the pirated downloads of the original 1987 film as well as the 2014 remake because Excipio was unable to tell which film was actually downloaded.
