Will you pay for an MLG pass?

  1. No way! Too expensive.

  2. Yes. It's worth it. I'll at least pool with some friends!

    MLG Winter Arena play is this weekend, and MLG had previously announced that they would be trying a new pay per view model. Well, it's been less than heartily received by fans of StarCraft streaming. Traditionally MLG has offered at least a couple streams free of charge with some ads. Now, however, these are unavailable.

    According to a     TeamLiquid poll, the measure has fallen mostly flat on its face. We expect to see a return to the earlier free option model, which is better for eSports anyway. It's a little difficult to convince your friends to pay $20 to watch it. Although you could throw an awesome barcraft...

    So what do you guys think? Will you pay or not?!
