EPTBut paying 20$ for a 360p stream? Well we can just hope they'll upgrade it to 480p eventually, perhaps if the whole thing succeeds.
Paying 20$ for a nice quality, 480p, un-laggy stream is something I'd definitely consider.
GOM concedes, will provide free LQ stream - Page 11

I hope that stream is stable. Watch as it crashes. [; | ||

It's great that they listen tho, but I really think they saw this coming and just wanted to see how much they could get away with as far as profit margins go. ... GomTV != Blizzard. | ||

That's how most businesses work. It's not uncommon for companies to raise prices just before a sale or major coupon release. It's marketing. | ||

Massive respect for GOM for backing down from that, not having too much pride to take a backstep and make the correct decision. | ||

well.... Gom cut a deal with Blizz that kespa was not willing to accept. so the odds are Gom paid alot or undertook alot of risks. Gom is trying to recover that cost or is carrying out the terms of the contract per blizzard. so the price situation was either a direct or most likely an indirect result of blizzard's action. | ||
