International Rules Series, is this ethical?

I have a question for AFANA. Last weekend I was able to watch the 1st of the 2 International Rules matches between Ireland and Australia. Later this weekend I expect to see the 2nd.
Now as AFANA is aware, the only "legitimate" option to view these matches is via Setanta PPV in the USA. I live in Canada and there is simply no Setanta PPV or Pub in my area that covers these matches. Unfortunatly my only option has been able to download the matches via BitTorrent from folks who captured the games off their televisions in Australia. So what is a person to do, simply not watch matches? I'm all against Piracy and respecting copyright and all that, but I feel a distinction needs to be made when a copyright holder doesn't give any legitimate options to viewers.
