A good description of Twitch

(In response to a BBC segment which was probably made because of the rumours that Google/Youtube is loooking to buy Twitch)

It's probably because of that pokemon game everyone plays.

Not really, millions of people stream themselves playing games everyday.

Not surprising at all tbh.

My FIFA streams were drawing millions ffs. Had to stop streaming because twitch told me the servers couldn't handle it. hmm

You had to stop streaming because Comedy Central purchased 100% of your rights ffs

Actually right now only 800 something people are on that stream right now. Which is actually more than the top NexGen Console based channel but then again the current time isn't exactly prime-time for any region. The top 5 channels overall are all pulling 10k+ at this time.

So no, it's not that pokémon game everyone is playing Razz

First of all Twitch can handle millions, 2nd of all no one cares about FIFA; granted, the top PS4 channel right now is playing FIFA.... but with 300 viewers Laughing
