I don't understand why mlg has to be the only tournament to not stream for free, I mean premium passes for higher quality or earlier vod access can still be offered. Apart from that 10$ is still too much money for an Arena. The competetive Starcraft scene is far away from being ready for pay tv, don't understand this at all and I think the people who make MLG are seriously money-grubbing. The way you are thinking is so last year. There's enough content for you to watch if you don't want to pay for it. Just don't watch it then. You don't HAVE to watch it. The people that do want to watch the Arena's will pay for it, and based on the previous Arena, it was worth it overall. Being a gold member, I now get two Arena's for the same price as the Winter Arena, so I'm happy ^_^. | ||

The competetive Starcraft scene is far away from being ready for pay tv, don't understand this at all and I think the people who make MLG are seriously money-grubbing. Couple things [1] VODs are free a week after the event happens. [2] You're complaining because somebody isn't willing to give you something for free [3] They're flying all these korean players into the MLG studio and paying for their hotel stay and roundtrip. It costs a lot of money. [4] There are people who are willing to pay for this event to support MLG and eSports. [5] Compared to how much money you spend doing other things that cost money, you get an incredible amount of content. Buy a movie? (1.5 hours) $15. Rent it? (1.5 hours) $7. Go golfing? $20 (4 hours) MLG? $30 (10 hours MINIMUM) | ||

<3 you MLG. Also to people who say they don't understand the pricing, one of the reasons I love MLG and am happy to pay for it is the storylines. The open bracket format lends itself to epic, epic runs (Naniwa, Polt etc) and there are so many awesome rivalries (Idra vs MC?). So yeah, thats why I think its fair. | ||

EDIT: before anyone asks - any line-up that has one of Stephano, IdrA, Naniwa, Ret, Nerchio, HuK, and Sen is enough to draw me in. | ||

I have gold membership, but am going to wait till the line-up is revealed for the Spring Arenas before buying them - nothing against MLG there, just the way I watch these days, need players I like before dropping the $.
