It's not the (possible) spoilers and the pleasure of contemplating their veracity as much as it is the unholy entertainment provided by fan comments.
The Westeros.org forum, for example. What a laugh.

Thank archmaester for this. He not only put them in sequence but made sense out of them.

I wouldn't think too much of it, honestly it seems so fan fictiony that even D&D would scoff at it. The morons behind this tried to spoil season 6 but was only about 2/5 right about the events. While some of the details may be spoilers, I doubt it will play out like that.

Personally, spoilers have never hindered my enjoyment of anything. RW was spoiled for me, but I loved reading it and watching it all the same. Hell, they allow you to think more critically of a scene when you aren't distracted by the plot twist, and you can pick up on subtle cues of foreshadowing and such. So being spoiled presents a unique experience of its own.
That said, I tend to avoid them whenever possible. GOT's an exception to that because I don't care much for what happens at this point. The leaks read like fan fiction garbage and I wanted to have a giggle. -

Why would I spend a year in anticipation just so I can be mildly surprised by what a couple of guys arbitrarily decided to make their made-up characters to do?
I don't watch shows just to see what happens. I watch for the whole experience. Reading "Tommen jumps out of a window" is not as satisfying as seeing how Sapochnik decided to present that scene.
Besides, I started this showing knowing what happens, so why stop now? -

It's mostly because we still have a year to wait, and anything could happen between now and then, I might die in a freak occurrence and never know what happens next. At least now I have a vague idea.
