I'd say that dollar signs are probably a big part of the reason why there are pros and why they play such good games in Korea. SC1 and 2. | ||

No complaints here. Oh man, you must have missed the night with the Jinro versus Idra bo5. That was some intense crashing. Too many foreigners wanted to see it. The stream crashed tonight but it was immediately after the results of Jinro's match were basically written in stone so it was fine. | ||

No one is obligated to give you a certain quality of service unless you're a paying customer. You don't outright deserve streams of these games just because they exist. GOM and Blizzard are spearheading the enterprise, an enterprise that I'm sure you enjoy. So instead of raging and complaining that the site is down you should be patient and grateful that Starcraft 2 is streamed for your enjoyment free of charge. I would say this about sums it up. | ||

GOM providing a free stream is not your right as an individual, you should be thankful that it exists. Hopefully the game expands, is embraced, lasts just like Brood War has, and changes the world into playing wargames instead of actually engaging in them.  | ||

Sure I could buy the vods but the thing is that I really dont think that sc2games are really worth it, not yet atleast. My opinion is that if they really wanna grow the audience they should allow restreams so that everyone can enjoy the games just like we do with the bwgames | ||

Also, id point out that the reason why there is such an awesome BW scene in korea is because of big sponsorships, which dont come from having a niche thing. User was warned for this post | ||
