Wow, this is really, really sad for SC2 and the growth of e-sports, and seems like a bit of a money-grab to me. Why not charge for the high quality streams like other places have? This is extremely sad news. | ||

$50 a season(month?) isn't supporting eSports, it's daylight robbery when judged alongside the offerings from other companies. | ||

1. Absolute top quality of content, both technically and "artistically". 2. Be able to watch anywhere anytime, e.g. no separate charging for streaming/VODS, which is especially important because it is global, and there are timezones and people (yes, even starcraft nerds) have lives and schedules. 3. No ads, period. I'm not paying for your privilege to commercially brainwash me. No sponsor clips, no sponsor shout outs, no big sponsor banners in the stream. T-shirts and stage posters are unavoidable I guess. Ads are something I tolerate in free content, but nowhere else. | ||

I mean, is the first tournament that they are doing, i think they should've used this one to promote and make the fanbase of competitive sc2 bigger and afterwards trying to fee it. Well I don't want to defend the Evil Gom but they already did it and we all know it costs shitload of money to have the servers and bandwidth across the world to deliver HD video. I'm really ok with the fee and in my mind, I'd be willing to pay 1$ for 1 day or 15$ for 1 month. I think 99cts would be the best offer and 9,90$ / month, it sounds cheap and reasonnable. If they charge 2$ per game and 39$ for a month, it's a different story. | ||

Are you kidding me with this bullshit? I could buy a new copy of SC2 for the price it will cost me to watch one month of GSL. Lol, what an absolute joke. | ||

If they were in such dire need of money to be supported, maybe they should cut back on expenses like hiring popular Korean musical groups to perform. | ||

We can support esport through promotion and contributing to the community. We watch sports on TV without paying - every match in the world cup is boardcasted for free. Just because I didn't buy a ticket into the stadium doesn't mean I don't want to support the sport. | ||
