Not buying. It's ridiculous that they are charging in the first place. For a high quality alternate stream, sure, but to charge for a crappy low quality stream that is riddled with advertisements anyway? No thanks.

I won't be watching this if I have to pay for it.

I for sure will not pay to watch this if the price of stream + vods exceeds $20. Even then I don't know how good I'd feel about that price.

GOMTV must be all kinds of stupid to come out with a $50 price point right after the MLG and IEM were broad-casted for FREE.

Maybe if they lower it down to 10/20 but 50 is a lot.

and the vod thing sucks put ads or something.

I think > $10 is kind of expensive, and it's even worse if you have to pay for VODs separately :/ I mean free is nice, but for Progaming to become a business it needs to be monetized, but these prices to a community that isn't ready for them is just silly. With all the free content out thus far, I don't have enough time to watch it all anyway.

I said yes primarily because even though they are doing things in a less than optimal manner, I have the resources to afford a season, and will pay as a good faith gesture for one season. If they betray my loyalty, well then I have every reason to shout from the mountain tops.

GOM was SO fun for me to watch with tasteless/sdm. they turned me from a casual fan to a more hardcore BW fan with the english commentary and solid matches.. This is so sad to hear, why not just keep it how it was? Free stream then $1 for HD lols.

this news has ruined my day, I was really looking forward to tasteless commentating again.

this is sad, i really wanted to see them. I don't feel i should pay for vod's tho. If i was going to an live event, i'd totally be willing to pay for my seat and event cost. Not for vods tho.
