Doubt I'd ever use it myself but will definitely be interested in watching what other people do with it.

I voted impartial, but somewhere between that and Dont like it.

Basically.. The current system of amature casters using services like YouTube is really really good from the viewer standpoint. The GomTV clean source system doesn't seem like it matches up (from the end-user experience, no idea if it is easier for the casters themselves). Harder to navigate, harder to find videos, lower quality, etc etc.

But on the otherhand if people using it is going to further encourage GomTV to keep extending their reach to the foreign community; it is a good thing.

I am just not looking forward to the inevitable day when suddenly OGN/MBC/GOM decide to start sending shakedown letters to youtubed matches. :| Starting to gear up their own fan-cast systems seems like a (small) step in that direction. But if the result of walking in that direction is professional english casting for the other leagues as well... Then perhaps that is a worthy trade off.

This post sounds like a relatively favorable review of the system.

I think the current system is good, and Nick already speaks English. But I guess if it is used for non-English non-Korean live casts it could be ok.

yeah I found it after some more searching. Being in the featured section makes things harder to find and get less views for whatever reason.

I'm looking forward to hearing random casters who will shout hilarious comments and oddities throughout the entire game while most of that excitement would be in response to the immediate action rather than overall strategy/analysis.

I don't know what that is, but it looks like Combat-EX talking.

It seems like a good idea and gom is doing excellent job helping the foreign community, but it also seems redundant. People make youtube commentaries because there is no other english commentary out there. But is gomtv's casting tool only for gom's vids? Most of these (all but msl?) tastless is already casting and doing a fine job so why would people need to do it over again? The only use I see is for making fun vids for close friends/family to see, not appealing to the masses at all.

Anyways this opinion is based on assumptions I made, does anyone know if those assumptions were correct or not?

Well, it's not just for English speakers, what about all the other languages we speak here at TL? If you could cast it in your native language and then try and get your friends to watch SC with you - the bigger the foreign community gets.

Definably a plus- if you don't speak english or korean, who is going to cast for you? This allows everyone to try to cast, not just english speakers/korean speakers.

That being said, I bet that if you try to cast in english/korean, not very many people are going to choose to listen to you over choosing to listen to tasteless.

I dont think I would ever use it because of the type of person I am, but I think this is a great opportunity for the community to find talented new casters. Anything that can help the english starcraft community is good to me. I hope the other leagues can follow in GOM's footsteps and realise that the english community is one worth targeting.

Would be quite a good learning experience to listen to your second or third language getting casted.

Given the ammount of korean i've picked up purely from watching VODs, i'm sure watching a few spanish, french, italian & german casts would do my vocabulary good. Any words i'm not familiar with - i'll look 'em up, but mostly you can figure it out from context unless it's a local reference or saying.
