I mean, I pay $30 a year and even if it just turns out to be a donation to MLG, their production and events are worth it. I just really hope they truly can afford this and that they're not shooting themselves in the foot if in the future they need to go back to a PPV model. You shouldn't be concerned at all. Freemium model is the new way to go in the Gaming Industry. LOL has showed how to do it properly. I don't think MLG will hurt much. PPL who want to see content in HD will still pay for that. | ||

I'm just concerned with the amount of entitled people when it comes to esports, looking at some of the comments about this is pretty depressing. | ||

Your conspiracy theories are hilarious to read though. Are you capable of understanding english? I already gave you several direct quotes from that interview that where clear and direct lies. Seems to me you have trouble executing critical thinking when it comes to a company, tell me, when the Federal bank of America loans the government several more trillion, do you believe it was because of love? When BP goofed and had to pay billions in damages, do you think they did this because they're just great fans of nature? I assume you believed the Americans when they said Iraq had WoMD's? Same for Sundance, make a mistake, try to rectify it, albeit in a childish subversive method, but the PPV debacle proved subversive childish behavior seems to be his business modus operandei. And about Dreamhack, they directly stated they would never go for a payed model, as unlike Sundance they havn't been caught lying or trying to fuck over the fanbase, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

Hey man, didn't you know that's how the McDonalds Dollar Menu got started? McDeez was making too much money from Big Mac sales so they decided to give away food for only a dollar! | ||

I'm sure this has already been said in the 25 pages of posts, but this'll be a great boon for getting newer blood into eSports spectating. Also, those that now want to pay for it can now feel like they're contributing to the success of MLG rather than feeling that dreadful feeling of obligation of being locked behind a pay-wall. | ||
