+ Show Spoiler +

After GOM's recent rebranding to GOM Exp they've decided to reupload their content to youtube, but it appears to be fairly likely that old GOM Classic VODs won't be reuploaded at all! Which means that we either have to get GOM to reupload them or hope that somebody here on TL has all of the torrents so that we can reupload ourselves!









Well shit... If this happens some of GOM Classic's games won't be available in their original form. Some of Brood War history might literally get lost.

Although if they don't reupload we might as well starting scraping up the VODs together to start archiving. most*Although if they don't reupload we might as well starting scraping up the VODs together to start archiving. http://i45.tinypic.com/9j2cdc.jpg Let it be so!

I actually read it as unlikely they'll be uploaded or rather that there is a good chance that they might not be.
