I personally feel that GOM TV gained the most as a company from hosting a StarLeague. Their product is very closely linked to the lifestyle of the fans, and the player itself is outstanding for online broadcasting. I feel they probably gained a large number of viewers from sponsoring the league.

SuperJongMan Jamaica11586 Posts March 31 2007 22:35 GMT #12 GOM TV imo. Their stream feature is very popular and also, SC has become a big attraction of the Gom Player Stream feature. Pringles might release some hydralisk flavored potato chips sometime, but Gom Player and SC have become interlinked in Gom TV streams. And to this day, I dunno what Shinhan woulda gained by sponsorring these guys... Loans, Accounts, Interest and Savings..... and Starcraft?

pOOwarrior- United States518 Posts April 01 2007 02:15 GMT #17 I have no idea really >_> But I guess GOM TV, simply because it's obviously a product that starcraft fans will be interested in.

PePe QuiCoSE Argentina1204 Posts April 01 2007 03:46 GMT #19 luhh? or i didn't get it or you got the wrong thread you missed the option "i have no idea" but yes, i agree that gom seems to be the most logical. Still, advertising is a weird science and being GOM the most related to it doesn't necessarily imply that their are the ones that made the best business with SC.
