Fox Claims 4 Million Copies Of Wolverine Downloaded

From: imdb.com

Without citing a source for his information, News Corp. President and COO Peter Chernin claimed on Wednesday that the pirated workprint of X-Men Origins: Wolverine that hit the Internet in late March has now been downloaded some 4 million times. Chernin's comments came during a conference call with analysts to discuss the company's quarterly results -- and flew in the face of other estimates that the pirated movie, produced by News Corp's 20th Century Fox studio, had been downloaded about 1 million times. Piracy, Chernin said, has become "as big an act of industrial espionage, industrial sabotage, as we have seen in terms of its economic impact."
