They already have a platform-level subscription. It's Twitch Turbo and costs ~$10/month. Removes all ads on the site. I don't think creators get any portion of it like with YouTube Premium though.
- Lev1a 4y agoIIRC I heard years ago that Turbo "pays" the streamer for the non-watched ads which have been removed for the Turbo user, i.e. fractions of a cent, i.e. nothing. All it does is paying Twitch for doing fuck-all.
- HWR_14 4y agoSo Turbo pays the streamer the same amount per stream as the non-Turbo ad supported account? That sounds good and fair. I don't know why you would expect otherwise. Heck, Turbo users probably watch more videos and so are better customers even at the same rate.
- WJW 4y agoRebroadcasting live video to potentially hundreds of thousands of people at once is hardly "fuck-all", that shit costs a lot of money to do well.
- runevault 4y agoI thought they removed turbo for everyone outside Canada, or did they bring it back at some point?
- nozzlegear 4y agoI'm in the US and have been subscribed to Turbo for over a year now, even though I rarely watch Twitch. I just keep my subscription so I don't have to be bothered with ads when I want to turn on a Twitch stream on my Apple TV.
