No, I've just worked with Twitch and had friends in executive positions at Twitch. Many of their top streamers that pay the bills for Twitch are recruited and have employment/partnership contracts. They're very much paying for content during the time I had connections with them (pre-Amazon and a while after).
The nobodies that no one watches doesn't cost or earn Twitch very much.
- itsdrewmiller 3y agoYour explanation of twitch monetization (or costs?) was hard to understand: >People choose what they want to watch on Twitch, which they have to pay as a portion of subscription costs to the channel. Who is "they" here? Twitch paying the streamer (cost for twitch) or viewers (aka subscribers) paying the streamer (revenue for twitch)?
