You guys know that you can watch VODs uploaded by wfbrood on youku right...?

The VODs are usually up within 3 hours...

Yeah but they are not good quality and takes me a shitload of time to load.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuck!

Why does there have to be a shit show? Why does there always have to be internet drama (for ludicrous reasons too)? Why can't we just figure out a way to get us the VODs we all love?

For people who haven't come across the thread linked on the bottom, it is possible for people outside of Korea, to access Ongamenet, so that they can watch OSL and half of Proleague.

Question: Can anyone confirm if the baezzi is a "youtube partner" or not? Does he get paid like some high profile uploaders?

I sure hope Jon747 doesn't quit uploading VODS, because I usually watch his VODS if I miss it live.

Jon747's is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than nevake's account. Usually on nevake, the vid is uploaded days or a week later, when you don't even want to see it anymore. Jon747 uploads it relatively quickly, when the hype is still there. This is a huge loss.

Youtube policy:
To become a YouTube Partner, you must meet these minimum requirements:

* You create original videos suitable for online streaming.
* You own or have express permission to use and monetize all audio and video content that you upload—no exceptions.
* You regularly upload videos that are viewed by thousands of YouTube users, or you publish popular or commercially successful videos in other ways (such as DVDs sold online).

Considering BaeZZi doesn't meet either of the first two requirements I really doubt it.

Put aside all the history or whatever political views he may have, its a real shame that this is happening. Discovering his channel is what really got me into pro league to begin with.

Unfortunately, the stream on Youku is super slow. Takes forever to download the stream.

To those complaining about youku, you just need to refresh a couple of times so that you are connected to a faster/closer server.

In a nutshell, I agree with ArsenalGunners. Like ArsenalGunners, I'm here because I discovered the VODs on YouTube, and Jon747's channel. However, reading that thread and Baezzi's views, I disagree with Baezzi and it is unfortunate he has such viewpoints.

Unfortunately, the loss of Jon747's uploads also stings the community as well.

What I say is that if we give any support to Jon747/Baezzi, we do it with the disclaimer that we disagree with his viewpoints posted at TL. Specifically, if any donations are made to Jon747/Baezzi, please follow up with a comment on his youtube channel that you recognize his efforts for the Starcraft community and would like to support his work, but that you disagree with his comments made on TL.

With respect to the Jon747 channel in itself, I have not seen any racist videos and I don't believe Baezzi is using that channel to promote his "misguided" views.

Streaming speed aside, my point with ArsenalGunner is that some of us are here playing Starcraft again, and part of the TeamLiquid community, partly because of Jon747's channel. This is a bigger loss for the community as a whole and is probably a bigger loss for TeamLiquid in the longer run (despite Baezzi's misguided viewpoints).

Wfbood and Youku are simply not as accessible for many non-Chinese viewers, as compared to YouTube.
