I'm definitely going to buy the $20 VODs and HQ stream now!
There is always an exception.

That leaves you with paying 20$ for VOD's in a not so good quality that are only availible for a season and most likely to be distributed illegaly?

orignally posted on (nonupdated) website

VOD ticket will be valid even the season over (Once you buy it, you can watch VODs whenever you want.)


Also, remember that for the US market the games at 18:00 KST is 5 am eastern standard time. 2 am west coast of US.

Not many people will be able to watch all the games live for free. Sure, you can pirate it or w/e, but honestly, maybe since GOM listened to complaints, made it fair to people who already purcahsed a ticket, and is actually trying to reach out to foreigners, $20 for the first tournament isn't too terrible to show you support GOM.

If you pay for the first tournament and GOM makes a profit, they may get better sponsors or next tournament will be run better. And you may either have to a) pay less or b)just go ahead and pirate stuff then.


I dont support piracy of the Vods as I mentioned. I said its nice that people support GOM by paying. I just said for me it didn't look that attractive of an offer as it did on first glance and that it looked even attractive was probably because of their first offer which makes it kind of likely for me that this was planned to an extant. Still I appreciate their marketing strategy and I dont think they are the devil because of that.
If that wasn't clear then I hope I clarifyed it with this post.

God team liquid is so freaking sex.

GOM, though i want better quality and more better acess to vods (after the season), I will now buy your product, but only because I get to see countless hours of IdrA and Tasteless.

Clearly the door-in-your-face technique. Seems like it's effective, will hopefully be able to use it myself in the future =)

Nice that it's reasonable now though

I am so going to pick up the $20 package. Best way to show that the SC2 community can support E-Sports. Gom is probably going out on a limb lowering the prices, would be best to support them for it,

So is $20 for three seasons a service for those that already bought a ticket (as some kind of reward) or will it be available to new customers as well?

I'm happy now. The price is reasonable and the fact that a free stream is made available makes it all the better. Would probably have paid for the month of entertainment at the old price but did not want to support their efforts without them making a free stream available. Making a LQ stream for free now gives me all the reason I need to sign on. GJ GOMtv.

Lol im happy that they have changed there mind. but my mind is still boggled to how they thought the original plan would work.

Anyway as others have said im going to check out the quality of the stream first before buying the premium. Lets hope we get some good SC2 matches....

To people still complaining: get a freaking life!! GOMTV did what people asked for so no need to draw up these conspiracy theories.
On a side note did anyone notice the difference in bandwidth test to GOM server? Mine used to be 400K 2 days ago and now its almost 2000K. Did they change the server or its just my ISP?

I hate how they had to yank people around if this is actually the case.

The pricing they arrived at is great, and I would of paid for it before the door was shut on my face.
I enjoy watching more than playing.

here a quote from the gomtv forums regarding bandwidth problems.

Hello everyone,

Many of you are very curious about your bandwidth check result.
We can explain how the bandwidth check works on GOMtv.net

Your result shows the internet connection between your computer and our server. Even though you have a very high internet connection in your area,
if you are located in where far from our server, the result would be low.

GOMtv.net server is located in the west of the US and if you stay in Europe or other country, you might have limited speed.
That is why we recommend you do bandwidth check before watching live broadcasting or purchasing the ticket.

We are trying hard to provide better service and sorry for inconvenience this issue may cause.
We will keep up the posting to make you better understand our service.

Thank you.

they never thought it would work, it's common practice in any negotiation, now it looks like how they listend to the community while they still charge 20$ for something worth 5$

Thanks you. Thank you. Thank you for the free stream. I wouldn't mind the free stream having adds to support it, and if the response from the HQ stream is good I will be getting that for the finals using the day ticket.

Thanks GOM, $20 for HQ stream and VODs I think is reasonable (It's like going 2 times to the movies in the US).

Cheers.

So glad they decided to have a free stream as to not completely shit on e-sports. $20 is still steep, but they can charge whatever the fuck they want as long as there's a free one for people to watch if they want. The whole $50 no matter what deal was just extortion. This is a step in the right direction.

They have fixed the bandwidth meter to display the correct units. My results now reflect the same speed that my router's bandwidth meter indicates, whereas before they displayed 1/8th of that (i.e. the difference between KBps and Kbps)
