Original Post — Direct link

It had so much good content and really good insight on players like Faker, Bjergsen, Uzi etc. I think you can still find the series on youtube but they are uploaded under random users and I was just wondering why. Was there some kind of incident that led to this or was there some other reason?

I’ll look into it but I bet it’s music rights. That’s the thing that kills us on a lot of older content.

No idea if the original files are around somewhere and if it would be easy enough to remove the offending audio files. (Or worth the time investment).

I’m going to ask around a little. I’ve heard S1 was amazing but I’ve never seen it. I’d love to find a way to repost it even if it was with no music or music that didn’t fit as well out of our library. Maybe put up some title cards at the beginning explaining why there are weird awkward silences?

Edit: Looks like OP posted some links below. Excited to check these out. Still going to look into why we can’t have them on one of our channels…but also now I need to do it in a way that doesn’t narc on the links below in case there’s some other reason we needed to take them down.

It is so sad that after all these years music rights is still so archaic. Movies and TV shows have the same issue, especially with older ones that fans want HD releases of.

For sure. E.g., the “Scrubs” streaming versions are a travesty; without the original songs some of the best scenes just don’t hit the same.
