True, I love LAN latency and everything too, but it isn't really the same though. LAN is about fighting the nerves to play in front of other people on stage.
This is most likely why HuK didn't play well at IEM.

You can tune in sc2.tv - behind the scenes setting up
Highlights:
* day9 commentates husky playing in practice league * Jp giving Hd and husky paper with all info about players, in case they don't know much about players * Hd doesn't look as good as he sounds

I'm looking forward to this.

Well they're caking on the makeup apparently, so this should be pretty hilarious to see!

It's also misleading to call it an "HD stream" when it's not in HD quality, and nowhere on the page to purchase it does it tell you that the actual resolution is youtube standard quality, not 720 lines that we expect from the "HD" denotation.
I see it as only 10 bucks for like 4-5 hours of starcraft which I enjoy watching which is a pretty good deal. Sure I've love to see higher quality and hopefully in the future we'll see that but for now all we can do is support the industry until that time comes.

I enjoy it, too, but at least they could use their own bandwidth for $10. You don't have to buy every premium stream to support the industry, there are lots of ways. You can buy it if you think it's a good deal, I won't stop you, but I have never paid to use my own bandwidth in a P2P service.

That's true but then the other thing is the pressure from being at the event with people being there watching you is different from playing in the comfort of your home. SjoW is used to it already but will not be the same for Socke.
