Honestly, no one cares. I don't mean this to troll. Just saying, like when I did the PRS (Pucca Relive Series) of the Coca Cola OSL no one cared (of course could be due to my personality). In my experience no one would look over their shoulder if the Coca Cola OSL just suddenly vanished.

Finals are important sure, epic games are important sure, but no one cares about that ro64 group F bo3 vs korean#1 and korean#2

Anyone who has never watched through the GOMtv qualifiers with a bunch of giggling friends cannot know the joy that GOM brought to our hearts. The best was when Jason Lee casted with Nick and had no idea what was happening, and Tasteless still keeping it all professional while Jason Lee would say crazy stupid stuff unintentionally.

When I saw this post I decided I would prove you wrong. You probably are unaware but in fact the Coca-Cola OSL did disappear. A few years ago I got all the VODs and uploaded them as you can see here and released a torrent.

Just clicking on a lot of VODs there, none of the twenty or so I went to had less than 100 views, most had at least 300, and quite a few had thousands of views. I have no idea how many people downloaded the torrent who could also have watched it. For the thousands who watched VODs from that it is important that they have access to all the other VODs. I never watched all them myself but I like having the option to.

So in future do some research before making dumb sweeping statements about how the BW community feels. I did not really rewatch GOM VODs but I care. If you don't care then don't post about it.

This and the original KPGA tournament another person uploaded were both really interesting for me, I definitely appreciated it I think for a lot of people watching the entire tournament would be a bit much, but a lot of people have a favourite player or two they want to see an old game of. Just in terms of RTS gameplay development, they are historically interesting. How top players thought about the game back then, what was most important to succeed in those early stages etc.

GOMTV tasteless vods are sorta the same idea. Besides the WCG and blizzcon stuff he did, this is where tasteless really started to cast. For some people interested in his career, that's potentially historically interesting.

Especially in terms of archiving, this stuff does have its audience. Watching live over the course of a month or two not so much -.-
