tanithryudoGot up a bit before 7 AM today and spent all morning combing weibo and other sites for info and recordings of the 咪咕汇 gala yesterday (this morning US time).
Thanks go out to QQ Music for probably one of the fastest to have recordings (although lower quality) available for direct download, and the large population of China (because the number of people who don't care about copyright increases due to the size of the base population, lol).
I also saw a lot of people on the forums being as unhappy as I am with Migu. I'm unhappy because their apps don't accept registration from non-mainland phone numbers, and you have to have an account to purchase tickets to watch this (livestream!) gala... it's like they don't want the money from the many sizeable foreign fanbases of all the celebrities they invited.
A lot of people who could watch the livestream were also unhappy about huge amount of ads they had to bear for a paid performance. Reportedly some people had to endure a 30 second ad each time they switched camera angles, and that's an eternity in this context. Another recording I saw had an ad obnoxiously show up on the screen every 10-15 seconds, and if they fat-finger the close button, it directly redirects them away from the show and they have to navigate back. Considering these people had paid for the more expensive tickets, it's understandable they're talking about uninstalling and blacklisting the app once they finish reviewing/screen-recording the show.
In light of this, I have to re-appreciate Tencent again. QQ Music is convenient for foreign users even without VPN. Second place goes to Kugou and Kuwo, which I finally got to work using VPN (though I'm just using them for extra 由你音乐榜 votes and sticking to QQ as my main music app). Also, gotta heap extra praise on the TMEA gala last week, for being fully open to overseas users, and for having the performances being all uploaded to youtube so quickly after the show.
