WME I IMG represents some big musicians like Lady Gaga, Deadmau5 and actors from Hugh Jackman and Seth McFarlane. It's an interesting step for such a mainstream and large scale organization to pick up on e-sports.

Wow, that's huge. Let's hope this is a good thing for SC2. A big company like that might only be interested in the more popular games and not wanna bother with the smaller ones.
