Downloading movies is a big deal among those who pirate content on the Internet and 2011 was no exception. TorrentFreak.com reports that the action-driving movie sequel Fast Five was the most pirated movie on the Internet in the past year. The story claims to use number of sources to create its list, including information from thousands of BitTorrent users.

The list claims that Fast Five was downloaded 9,260,000 times in 2011, which is well below Avatar, which had 16 million pirated downloads when it was the number one downloaded movie in 2010.
