Who gives a shyt, Google no different then amazon, both gon add some bullshyt rules

Anyway check my twitch out tonight, will be on madden

Amazon is way different than Google and they allow the companies they've bought to stay mostly independent. Woot, Zappos, etc haven't changed at all since Amazon bought them.

this shyt confusing... Partners at Twitch (the top streamers with contracts with Twitch) have already stated youtube already bought twitch and was changing shyt on the inside.

They wouldnt have a reason to lie bout that.. but I guess..

But as I pointed out in the other thread, it didnt make sense that twitch went with their own audio recognition software instead of youtubes and that was a sign they werent going with youtube as well..

Amazon pulled this on Google.

amazon's fire tv is the only media device with an official twitch app so i'm kind of not surprised. i'm more surprised the deal with google didn't fall through since that's a lot of users and info they could have added to their database.

hmm, this could be amazon's way of breaking into the gaming industry. it should also be interesting to see if they add any perks for prime members as well.

Twitch will be doing a livestream soon.
