This will never happen, quote me on it.
Twitch cares a lot about their brand being separate from Amazon. The risk of being associated too closely with Amazon amongst gamers (who are often quick to cancel/escalate) is just too high, and twitch has fantastic branding and (somehow) tons of goodwill from customers.
This only devalues the twitch brand, which stands completely independent of the Amazon brand just fine
- godzillabrennus 6y agoRemember Sunrise before Microsoft bought it? Big companies do stupid things to non-core product offerings they acquire. I’m happy for the twitch team getting paid but the writing is on the wall that Amazon will nuke their hard work.
- basch 6y agoSunrise was acquired as an acquihire, they never indented to have Outlook Mail and Outlook Calendar.
- untog 6y agoYour post essentially boils down to “Twitch would never let that happen”, but the problem is that it wouldn’t be Twitch’s decision to make.
- nwsm 6y agoYou say it will never happen because it would devalue the brand, but acknowledge that the action they are taking right now devalues the brand.
