The future of GMMTV series on YouTube and GODT

[antistatic]

GMMTV have now embarked on a policy to sell the international rights to their BL back catalogue titles to Rakuten VIKI.

This means all the links to episodes on the threads concerned will be geo-blocked outside of Thailand once the move takes place. Although a VPN set to Thailand should still work to view the episodes on YT, most folk will probably find the easiest way to watch will be just to go to VIKI and view the episodes there. GMMTV shows will remain free to watch on VIKI.

All the series below have been sold (and will probably be followed by others in due course):

        

Even though polls aren't very popular on this board, I was wondering if folks might have a preference on how we should proceed with any series affected by the change. You can give an opinion in the poll above or make a suggestion below.

It won't let me vote in the poll. I'm not very good at finding episodes on Vicky and iqiyi so would opt for the episode links being added to the thread. Salut

A simple post on the thread saying to look at Viki would be good for me.

At least on Viki we can get the episodes in one go, I find it annoying on YT having four parts for an episode. I assume that relates to how they get a cut of the money for people watching things.

Hrm, I did try to create an account about a year ago, still says "Pending staff approval", maybe didn't like my name. Oh, well guest works for me.

May as well have all the episode links I say loudly 🤓

I vote to add the episodes here for easy access. I've tried joining too and still waiting.

I totally forgot about this poll. As expected there were only a few staunch folk who were willing to get involved, so they will have sway over the future policy for the GMMTV shows.

🔸 Those who voted for separate episode links = 7 (this includes 1 vote that was left on the Hub thread)

🔸 Those who were happy just with a page link = 3

So it looks like I'll be adding links for the episodes separately. To be honest, if I remember I might add the page link too, so folk have the option on which route they wish to go.
