@ Arkantos - You can still vote. So where is the fun spoiled?! Where is the problem in adjusting a faulty undemocratic system like televoting in ESC? And just because people can do it doesn't mean the current system is democratic - democratic would also mean: Everyone just gets one vote and one vote only!

That's a totally great decision, well done EBU! @Martin you're absolutely right, we'll see much more quality songs even in the semi-finals!

@Martin: No, that's the problem - the jury members aren't professionals. At least most of them aren't. Unlike you think the guy from Scooter is a music professional.
The more influence of the jury, the more cheating and manipulating - plus less power for us, the viewers and fans. How anyone can be happy about that decision is far beyond my understanding - we are quickly returning to the early 90s if the EBU continues to destroy the contest. The contst is made to entertain the public, not just a few jury members.

I think it is a good decision, as it will give all songs a chance to be judged from a professional perspective as well as from the general public's feelings. I hope it will discourage broadcasters to send cheap entries, and encourage them to send good music. Moreover, it is better than when the juries pick their entries at the expense of another entry.

Finally a step forward to eliminate the unfairness being produced by televoting. Who has got more immigrants in other countries gets more points and better placings. This is not what the contest is all about people.
@ Dimitrios
Well, Greece can send whatever they are sending and finish in the Top-10 but I guess that's just alright, hm? Yeah...

that's great! i wanted this so much to happen! the jury system seemed to work fine in most occasions so it's great to see that stupid entries won't qualify from now on. Cyprus, Andorra, Switzerland will be equal to countries like Ukraine, Romania and Bosnia&Herzegovina for example. Monaco should return after that!! it's fair because countries with diaspora voting might face surprises but only if their entries are bad.

i think that could work well as it would mean mabe more non eastern european countries will qualify. and this could encourage countries like austria to return too.

I prefer the semifinals WITHOUT 50% jury votes.

Western bad entries will be able to qualify... or get more points than they deserve (Czech republic 2009 with a 50/50 system would have got some points from israel because juries gave them 7 , so no Nul point).... pathetic. Juries advantage bad songs and the BIG 4 ... the only goog thing is that the running order have less influence with juries... that's all, otherwise 100% televoting is better (and i'm for a 66/33 system (teleV/Juries) televoting tie break). i will really laugh at EBU the day a country X wins televoting , a country Y win jury vote, but a country Z win overall lollolol (it has already happened with portugal and Lithuania this year, but since it wasn't for the win nobody cares). Welcome corrupted and Americanized Eurovision

i'm glad to see so much "No"s , at least some people realised that this sytem suck lol @27boy : Juries = fixed results anyway , we loose transparency and fair points will be erased (and in semis it will be even worse since many 12/10/8 aren't diaspora voting at all)

how is it favouring the west? Turkey came 4th with one of the worst entries i've heard...Azerbaijan, Armenia, Greece, Estonia were all in the top 10...and Germany,Sweden and Spain were all near last. i think people are just p*ssed because they can't send anything and get a good place anymore :)

for me the best solution is tele-jury 60%-40% for both semi and final...and only 1 vote per phone....and please ert NOT AGAIN KATSAROS IN THE GREEK JURY...

OK officially the 2010 ESC will be a fixed show. Once again EBU decided to do the favour of the west and promote them. I AM 20000% sure that the 2010 winner will be from the west again.

Good. Now all countries can focus more on sending great songs and there will be much less injustice throughout the contest. Switzerland HAVE to get through one of these years.
However I still think there should be more than 5 countries automatically qualified for the final. In 2006 at least there was a consolation prize if you didn't win, but now it's become a bit of an all or nothing contest and the big 4 rule looks so much more obvious. At least give 2nd and 3rd place direct qualification!

Yup I reckon this is a good idea :) As long as they get rid of the jury vote qualifier (which it looks like they will) then I don't see any harm with this :) Imo it makes more sense to just have one clear system for all the events.
