Additionally, GOMeXP will open its own Youtube channel which will initially provide all GomTV VODs from 2010~2012. Amazing!! That GOMTV site is one of my worst experience of checking VODs... | ||

Pretty sad when the quality levels change aspect ratios. 360p is 640x360 (16 x 9) 480p is 600x480 (5:4) 720p is 1280x720 (16 x 9) 1080p is 1920x1080 (16 x 9) There is no such thing as 600x480. BTW, 800x480 is (16 x 9) The paywall is funny. That was one of the good things about wcs, no paywall and free vods. The starcraft scene is already small, this is gonna make it smaller. | ||

Gom stream never lagged! I know that Gom has never made bad decisions. So I assume (and hope) there's something else in store for us. | ||

I bet this will go a long way to making them more money and being more stable. | ||

I can't tell you how many times the Twitch stream would be unwatchable and the Gom stream A-Ok. I hope Twitch improves their damn service for this upcoming year because losing this alternative is going to make me extra frustrated whenever their stream starts to flutter. | ||

Twitch doesn't even work on my TV, whereas the GOM stream worked flawlessly. Sadly, this means I won't be able to watch GSL anymore until I buy a computer (or unless I watch from my phone). Hopefully GOM ups their game in other departments if this downgrade is being made. | ||

I always prefered the GOM stream. The VOD system on their website always worked really well, too. I'm not excited about this at all. | ||
