I’m surprised people actually believed Twitch was profitable.

  I mean... did you not see how much some of the streamers make in pay outs from the leak a few years back? Some political comentators were pulling at least a million if I remember correctly. There's definitely some money being thrown around. Not sure if its all being thrown around incorrectly, but people definitely pay to watch streamers. Just look up how much the highest paid streamers on Twitch make per month, and you'll see there's some value to it.

    How much of that money is "prime" subs though? If streamers are making a million a month off of the attitude of "my other subscription lets me hand them 5 bucks for free, why not?" Then it's not really making money at the rate streamer income would suggest.
