i wonder if amazon will ever become a publisher in the gaming world, either way i love amazon dont use twitch though so i hope it turns out well for everybody
Ah, gotcha. I misunderstood. And yeah, I agree.I was trying to state that I still think Hitbox is looking like the better option right now. My change is still justified.
Ha! Now that'd be something.I will laugh my ass off if Google ends up buying Hitbox (or a similar website) because of this.
...You don't trust Twitch and Amazon to accurately announce the acquisition deal?
They both officially announced it. What are they, lying now?
All good, just the way I like to convey things. I've been using Hitbox since the VOD changes, and I honestly just think that it's the better service overall.Ah, gotcha. I misunderstood. And yeah, I agree.
Honestly, I feel better about Amazon acquiring Twitch over Google.
Hopefully Amazon Prime members can have an ad-free experience, haha.
Google was unable to close the deal, said sources familiar with the talks, because it was concerned about potential antitrust issues that could have come with the acquisition. The Mountain View, Calif. company already owns YouTube, the worlds most-visited content streaming site, which competes with Twitch to broadcast and stream live or on-demand video game sessions. One source noted that because of the concerns, Google and Twitch could not come to an agreement on the size of a potential breakup fee in case the deal did not go through.
Given that Amazon has their MP3 store front, could they allow music that is available on their store to pass through the censors as part of this? Songs not on the store aren't allowed or something? Yes? Please?

You sir, are keenly unaware of the many benefits that elegant head wear constructed entirely of tin foil can provide.But Google can't have an avenue into your life unless you give them permission.
Unless those artists are being compensated in some other fashion, it doesn't matter that they're on the storefront.
Although... Prime members get access to unmuted streams?

roll back vod changes and turn off the shitty audio recognition algorithm pls
I cant see that happening, unless amazon is paying the company for their.
How does this affect the people who left to Hitbox? It is not like they would have gotten money out of this had they stayed...
This doesn't change any of twitch's new implementations as well. In fact, we don't know what Amazon will want changed with it yet.
Got the opposite meaning out of that. Heh
I'm not as convinced that Amazon is going to be any better... But they have the infrastructure to make it better than it is now at least.
I'd love to know the logic behind your post.
Twitch is huge and only really set to grow. eSports is gaining huge ground with consoles now having built in to twitch streaming and MOBA's being the phenomenon they are.
We now have more live streams for panels and conferences than at any other time and the vast majority of those are watched and broadcast from twitch.
It's difficult to monetize in it's current format but it's a dream advertising space and with a few tweaks it could sustain a premium service that offers higher quality streams or exclusive video content.
Hell it could even expand to be a source of gaming trailers, exclusive content and reviews like Gametrailers.
It's got so much potential.
Please
Never going to happen. They should improve it, but content ID is here to stay. Don't blame Amazon, Twitch or Google. This is the music industries doing. Unless you want lawyers swarming you left, right and center it's a necessary evil.
