Nope. Actually think before post please. Using this as a marketing ploy, drawing the rage from so many users then having to reimburse them, etc. is so bad, I don't know why you would even come up with that idea.

So clearly TorcH marched into the evil CEOs office and melted his cold cold heart with those blue eyes and that adorable smile. That's what I prefer to believe anyway.

Ok, so now where to purchase?

The old link still points to the old offer with 20 and 30 dollar tickets.

What's the policy of restreams? Will anyone buying the premium stream be allowed/is willing to restream to us, the poor?


Are you kidding or do you really still not know how this stuff works?

Yes of course that one guy pays 20 bucks and then GOM smiles at us all watching a restream of the HQ stream for free

I personally find it refreshing that they listened to their customer base and adjusted their pricing. Too often companies just stubbornly stick to a decision and leave customers dissatisfied. Hopefully this will lead to a profitable business model for GOM and enjoyable esports experience for users.

I had resigned myself to simply not watching and possibly reading LR thread the day after. Now I have to figure out if I can actually feasibly catch enough games to buy the service. Hopefully people support it at this new, reasonable price.

you can watch the stream quality on http://www.gomtv.net/2010gslopens1/premiumzone/VideoSpecs.php

The 300kb/s stream is okay (no horrible coding artifacts, although you can't read the supply count)
The 500kb/s is a bit better (that's the HQ stream & regular VOD)

They should have a 1000kb/s or 1500kb/s stream though for the paying people.

I'll buy a ticket not because I was door-in-the-face'd, but because $20 is actually a price I'll pay to support them. I wanted to give them money anyway, but $50 was unreasonable.

What was the bitrate of the GOMTV streams for the BW Tournaments? I could watch it on my 500kbit/s connection and it was way way better than everything that was streamed on livestream.com. However SCII might not look that good given the resolution is a lot higher.

Anyways, I know what the units look like, just give me a good commentary and I'm happy.

Then pay for the 500k stream. Why does GOM owe you anything? Yesterday we weren't even getting a free stream.

It's still a frigging shame though.
640*360 as "High Quality"? You gotta be kidding me -.-

That's the standart low YouTube resolution.
I dunno how well it is in terms of artifacts, lagg etc but it's kinda disappointing.
