+## About This Repository
+
+This repository serves as a community-driven archive for osu! Twitch streams and tournaments. We're preserving osu! content that might otherwise be lost due to Twitch's storage policy changes.
+
+## Why? Twitch VOD Policy Change
+
+As per a recent announcement, VODs on Twitch will be deleted if an account has over 100 hours worth of highlights starting on April 19th. This means any tournament that has solely relied on Twitch highlights for VOD preservation should migrate those VODs to another service if they care about preserving them further.
+
+You can read more about this policy change here: [Twitch VOD Storage Policy](https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/video-on-demand?language=en_US#storage)
+
+## Our Mission
+
+This project aims to:
+- Archive important osu! tournaments and events before they're lost
+- Create a searchable, well-organized collection of osu! content
+- Ensure the community's history and memorable moments are preserved
+
+## Current Archived Channels
+
+- [osulive](https://www.twitch.tv/osulive)
+- *(More to be added based on community requests)*
+
+## Accessing the Archive
+
+All archived VODs can be downloaded by visiting [osuarchive.wireway.ch](https://osuarchive.wireway.ch)
+
+Videos are organized by date and event name, using the following format:
+```
+YYYYMMDD_EventName
+```
+
+For example:
+```
+20150412_osu_Taiko_World_Cup_2015_-_Grand_Finals
+```
