Yeah, and SC2 is just as big as football right?

Arguably a better reason to keep content free, in order to draw in a larger viewer base.
I just can't justify spending $20 to fall asleep watching some match because I live in Aus, I barely get to watch any of the games.

Oz needs to go back and work on his PvP if he's going to start saying no one can beat him in this matchup. I can't believe he lost to Alicia 2-0 so convincingly.

44.95 + 10$ for hd is the usual, but i can't really say just by the number. There were one or 2 UFCs that were free.

I was just pointing out that you compared the biggest sport in the planet with the biggest sponsors with SC2.There is a reason UEFA is free, because they have real sponsors.

it isnt free in NZ either.
EDIT: also most boxing matches are PPV, and a lot more expensive for a 1-3hour fight than a 30 hour MLG event

We have over 20 hours of content on each of our 11 streams (over 200 hours of programming if you want to do the math that way). No commercials, 1080p, top tier talent, near instant VOD, top tier players, and a viewing mechanism to watch multiple streams. We have also upgraded our production every single event (jib cameras, PIP, lighting improvements, POVs, etc). We are trying to make this product worth it and I think it boils down to: you either think it is worth the money and pay for it, or you don't.
We're constantly adjusting our offering. The thing to keep in mind is that NO ONE in this space has figured it out yet. As a business we need to make money to keep doing these events. Have we found our perfect model yet? No. We plan to keep changing from season to season based on what works.
Thanks for your support.

Oz definitely should not have challenged everyone to beat him in PvP.
