the stream lags and stutters like a mofo on every setting.. and wasnt there a rule by Blizzard to provide free 720p streams for WCS? (i remember HuK wanting to eat a broom if this wasnt true ~2 months back on Desrows weekly stream thing) typical Gom statement, didnt expect it any onther way from those... people | ||

Here's a perspective from someone who used to watch tons and doesn't anymore: GOMTV used to be the only SC2 thing that I would pretty much religiously watch especially GSTL. I kept a subscription going even when there were periods where I literally had no time to watch anything and I'd go back to catch up later. Sometimes I'd dig through the archives to find games I'd not seen. Then it went to twitch. I didn't have a twitch account and even having made one I don't use it, I don't subscribe or follow people on twitch. Then GSTL went away. And Code S became part of the weird WCS system. They changed the player to something I don't really like as much as their own and also changed most of what I actually liked to watch. So...yeah as a result I lost all interest and don't watch GSL anymore. So they don't get my money anymore. Its as simple as that. | ||

Haven't watched GSL for quite a time now because of the restrictions. 7,99€ for Netflix is much more profitable than this. | ||

Thus less people watching GSL live because of low stream quality = more potential viewers for O'Gaming, since afaik O'Gaming is the only source of HQ GSL for non-subscribers. ok, done! French stream muted, and english stream with sound in another tab at the same time. Both get ad time, everyone wins! GOM won't get subscriptions though... edit: oh wait, ogaming isn't live? Right, doesnt work then, sorry. nm me. | ||

Blatant money grab based on economic models to grab a quick buck. I wouldn't be surprised to see SC2 disappear from GOM in the not too distant future. Very disappointed, from a long-time subscriber. | ||

(a) Revenue from new subs who pity GOM's plight + (b) revenue from new subs whose threshold for subbing is medium+ stream quality > (c) Cost of running medium instead of low + (d) cost of bad publicity and turning away potential new subs who are offended by this move I feel like all these factors are actually pretty negligible relative to the cost of production at GOM. | ||

I wonder, how they manage to do that, since they for sure make NO profit out of the live event itself. How many sponsors are involved? | ||
