From the figures that I have seen, Once is regularly one of the top viewed shows in it's time slot for the demographics that they are most interested in. In fact, it is one of the higher ranked shows on Sunday night, period. It might not survive on a weekday night (one of the problems that plagued OUaTiW), but it owns Sunday night. A network does not haphazardly cancel a show that is getting reasonable demographics, and is beating the competition. (Sure, there are Cable shows that get higher ratings, but not everyone has access to cable).

Also, Once is one of the highest viewed shows on Netflix.

Adding a Fifth season to the series can do nothing but put Money in ABC's pockets. And THAT is the business of television.
