So the Vlive Situation (1 Viewer)

[VillageIdiot]

Does anyone know for sure if it's really getting deleted?
How do you download vlives?

I don’t know if it’s getting deleted but it’s being replaced with a new platform being ran by both Naver and Big Hit.

I wonder why Naver is doing this? Maybe they both saw Weverse and V live would be competition and decided to combine. But I wonder why Naver, the biggest web engine in Korea, would feel threatened by a new site by an idol company enough to merge with it. How big is Weverse?

smart move by bh, but as someone who doesn't work for them, I'm really not a fan of it; it's starting to seem like a monopoly. not quite, but yes if it continues
I think a merge might be more possible

As far as I know, the VLive app is getting phased out and they will be launching an entirely new platform. I highly doubt they're going to archive the massive amount of content on VLive, would require significant investment and depends on how rights to those videos work.

I remember when Twitter ARMY swore BH was so different and complained about the evil monopoly of the Big 3. As common sense will tell you, BH may treat their artist more respectful (from what I recall) but when it comes to making sure there is a unfair balance of power that favors them and their artist, their no different the SM-YG-JYP.
