Maybe where you are they are dead, but those of us with friends prefer lan parties over internet play

Odd, I have friends and I prefer internet play. Between stable connections and Ventrilo, it's almost as good as being in the same room, but with the added bonus of my friends all playing on the same team vs strangers, which is my preference.

I play 20 hours a week with 24 friends every week.

We are on ventrilo the whole time and LAN party would not help us at all because we just don't all sit in one big dorm, we are not all in the same state, heck not even the same country...

And I know when SC2 is out and I start playing with my friend living exactly i n the house next door, neither of us is going to want to move their comp, playing through bnet is going to be a lot more convenient...
