MBCGame, the gaming channel widely known as the hosts of MSL, will become history on January 31th, 2012. A new channel named MBCMusic will take it's place beginning on February 1st. A significant portion of the MBCGame crew, including the casters, have joined the OnGameNet channel. Main implication for the BW fans is, obviously, no more MSL. Well... at least it wasn't that much of a surprise... the end had been foreshadowed months ago, but still... very sad. | ||

I hope MBCmusic fails terribly. It won't bring MBCgame back but hopefully the guy who made the decision gets fired or something. | ||

It's a business and they exist to make money and if there's more profit available in kpop then of course they're gunna invest in it. | ||

I mean MBC didn't close the gaming channel for no reason, it's not profitable enough/not enough people watch. From what I've gathered the broadcasting stations have very little profit margin anyways so if things turn bad they probably start to loose money. | ||

It's a business and if they make a decision like this they will have run their calculations and K-Pop will probably simply draw more viewers/is more profitable. I mean just think about it, K-Pop probably gets more viewers and sending music videos is a hell of a lot cheaper than producing a Starcraft league. | ||

If you were losing money running a huge tournament that has nothing to do with your ongoing business or a large majority of your new niche in customers, I doubt you would continue running the tournament either. So I believe its an overstatement to call MBCGame a disgrace. | ||
