If these replays could be used in conjunction with the report feature and players in the tribunal could actually analyze video footage of the in-game "crime"...we could judge cases A LOT better then by just reading a chat log. what is your take on my question?

You could even implement a 20 min delay on downloading another one to prevent scripts or 3rd party programs from "passively" downloading them all.
The interface design is not locked in stone, but we'd like to avoid adding restrictions such as the 20 minute delay you described. We'll be closely monitoring how people use this feature on the PBE, as well as the feedback provided by testers, and decide if any adjustments are warranted based on that info.

Also, how is this implemented so differently from LoLReplay that retrieving the replay from the server is necessary anyway? Was it to prevent some sort of cheating down the road or something?
I'm not going to go into great detail on this topic, but we've built a completely new service to support this feature that is separate from the spectator service.

P.S: If a person with the intention to disrupt the game knows he is being recorded or that the video will be posted on the tribunal....don't you think they would think 99999999999999999999999 times before even trying to do a bad thing? I sure think so. Unless they WANT to get banned.
The problem with that is how do you see the "crime" without watching the entire game? Judging Tribunal cases is much more than just "did they commit X crime or not?" A players behavior must be judged throughout history of their behavior and actions, not just a single "crime".

So why was the decision made to "watch" before you download? If the file is already stored on the server to "watch" why can't it just be enabled to download?

Most people who watch replays just want to well, save the replay and watch it later. I really shouldnt' be forced into a - open the game, close the game, save replay kind of system. Just seems like extra steps that can be avoided.

Also a bit of off-topic, would still love a spectator mode "how many are watching" on top of spectator chat.

We expect players to create all sorts of content using replays. As for Riot developed tools for video creation, that's not an immediate priority. Again, we're focused on core features and service for now.

Replays you watch are automatically saved locally and appear in your replay browser.
