cool stuff!
happy to see this happen

So this means GOM is no longer offering the SD stream themselves?
That sucks, twitch.tv doesn't work in China.

Gom is still broadcasting SD. This is just awesome for anyone that doesn't live in Asia. Even with p2p gomplayer it sometimes randomly disconnects or lags when it loses connectivity for a short time.
Also, twitch tv's resolution is slightly higher than gom's broadcast.

The SD stream is still available via GOM player. I think that GOMTV should restream via justin.tv all the time, because I may not always have GOM Player if I'm not at home and want to watch GSL. Can't download GOM Player in school for example.

I like. Just compared the qualities, and twitch.tv's is slightly better than with GOM player.
|
That's very cool, the quality is watchable as well(the gom client is always terrible for me).. Let's hope it gives them more viewers too :-).
|
Sweet!!! Now I can finally watch while I'm in school <3 <3
|
If you choose 360+, it's SO much better. Goodbye Gomplayer.
|
sick quality, they will probably reduce it.

Wow, this is cool. Gom player works most the times perfect for me but sometimes I have disconnects all the time (while inet works well). I´ll try switch today, the quality seems really a bit better.
And it´s nice to see some viewer numbers, I´m always curious how many tuned in a stream.
|
Awesome! I'm really glad that twitch gets to do this, as I think this will reach a lot of people that were either put off by the bad quality of the free stream or didn't want to download the gomplayer and log in.

This is great, because I am unable to put the GOMPlayer on this computer, as it is not mine.
Thumbs up from me ^^
