People pay monthly to watch TV, what's the difference?

you people are fucking retarded

You actually pay for this shit?

wh-what's the $25 option..

No, I don't. You can watch both TV and twitch for free you autistic brainlet.

Imma just sign up for the free trial and snab DMC1

Or people pay monthly to support their streamers who bring joy and happiness in their lives knowing they're helping them develop as a result. People can spend their money on worse stuff you know.

i pay 5 dollars a month only to get the emote forsenE

I can't stand watching a twitch stream for more than 5 minutes. Every ten seconds they thank whatever faggot subscribed for the 20th month or donated another 5 dollars to tell some shitty joke in the donation text. It's all about the money and the fake 'community'

Who do you give your FREE $2.49 to

People pay monthly to play xbox and playstation online.

People pay monthly for porno sites. People throw money at camgirls. People pay monthly Netflix subscriptions to watch absolute tripe like Salem or some other whatever fucking show. People collect comic books, old video games, baseball cards, Pokemon cards, guns, toys, computer parts, running shoes; there are any number of hobbies in this world that aren't completely productive. Like shitposting on Cred Forums. Live your own life and don't worry about what others do until it harms you directly.

Maybe don't watch friend simulators and variety streamers and just watch someone good at a game

>2011+7
>paying for TV
Shiggy diggy doo wop wop doo wow.

Could be worse, they could be paying for the emotes and not even watching.

Oh wait, people actually do that.

Fucking this.

>trying to watch a guide video on Youtube to git gud at a fightin gaem
>it's a recorded Twitch broadcast
>presenter stops what he's explaining every thirty seconds to listen to some shit jingle, read some banal comment and thank a subscriber

I put Streams on sometimes for background noise when I'm browsing and I don't pay a fucking cent.

Would you pay to post on Cred Forums?

it harms my intellect

no, /vip/ is a shit board

you watch the wrong kind of streamers. Atleast find someone with a non fake personality

The worst thing is that people subscribe which gives money to twitch when they could just donate directly to the streamer
Twitch is really shit lately

what's wrong with giving money for the service to keep functioning

I'm more inclined to toss a few shekels to Streamers that literally don't give a shit if you donate or not, they just play and talk and never mention subbing or bits or anything like that. More streamers should be that way.

I'm more worried about the fanaticism it generates. Lots of discussions and forums about some video games end up being polluted by children defending their streamer or making some drama.

You don't belong on Cred Forums. I'm saying this for your own good, nobody here knows how to not care about what other people do and it'll just frustrate you in the end.

They don't pay to WATCH, they pay to SUPPORT. They might get a few perks but the whole basis of the subscription system is "I like this person so I'll give them money". Same exact shit as patreon.

I really will never understand this shit, these people are almost always generating another source of income. I mentioned to my friends once that I would never understand people that pay to these people, they got mad at me and started defending the position with shit like"but its their money they can do what they want!" after about 2 minutes of back and forth it came out that they were subbed to some streamers the more we argued the more I explained why its a bad practice, eventually they stopped trying to bring me over to their side.
To be fair one just likes to argue and the other is a woman

Got me there. All should do it. In fact, the rest of it is fine, besides niggies who obsess over sneaks. Seriously, who cares about shoes? WHAT HUNCHBACKED FETISHIST LOOKS AT YOUR FEET

it starts to get real annoying fast when streamers like to mention HEY GUYS I HAVE A SUB GOAL

But user, it is their money and they can do what they want with it.

>talking to someone irl
>says something sarcastic
>finishes his sentence with Kappa

>paying money to some random to play video games
This must be an American thing, like tipping and donating all your money to a political candidate.

It's a waste of money. Some people take pride in being subbed for many years. People will pay for anything I guess.

>not using twitch emotes in real life

People should be willing to spend as much as basic cable costs on subs / turbo if they watch Twitch instead of TV desu

living in your head, rent free

Sounds like you got Jebaited

More like watching you guys with mild bemusement from a safe distance, like at a zoo.

believe me I wish all political candidates survived on small donors, instead of billionaires and giant corporations

And as I said to them, I'm not disagreeing with that they can waste their money if they want, I simply believe the practice to be idiotic.

That doesn't explain why they do it or really should do it. It's like throwing money at alcoholic scab asses, why?

...

just use your prime sub on whoever and change it up every month as you desire
i don't get the people that sub to 40 different channels, how do they afford that

like a Cred Forums pass for starters

You don't pay to watch, you pay to get to use the chat.

It's pay to freedom of speech, except you'll still get muted if you say anything the streamers mods don't agree with.

Paying for it is totally optional though, so it's not like paying for a service. It's more akin to tipping a street performer than anything.

I see people donating hundreds, sometimes thousands to streamers. Where do these autists get that money? Their parents? Surely they can't hold a well paying job being this retarded. If I found out anyone who worked for me donated to a streamer, I'd make their lives a living hell forcing them to quit.

I have twitch prime or some shit with my amazon prime. Whats the point of it?

I send $25US to ISIS every week and you can't stop me

>People are entertained by streamers
>People want to support their favorite streamers
>Donating $5 a month to support their favorite streamers while getting ad-free viewing and exclusive Twitch emotes in return
What's the issue? You don't have to donate to any streamer on Twitch, ever.

>It's pay to freedom of speech
It's not though, autist.

The US comprises 21% of all Twitch traffic, so yes, Americans likely spend the most supporting streamers. The next biggest country that views Twitch is Russia with 6%, and Twitch doesn't accept potato for subscriptions.

man, imagine paying for entertainment

lol consolefags = twitchtards confirmed

Can be entertaining to go in channels with only 10 viewers and bam up the streamer
Double fun if they join in but most are thin skinned faggots who cry and ban you the second they think you are ribbing them

>You can watch both TV and twitch for free you autistic brainlet.

exactly, so people who pay for either are fucking dumb gentiles who deserve to be ridiculed, hence the thread

If you say twitch emotes irl you might honestly be retarded

Pretty sure that for lots of subscriber it's mostly a communitarian move, they get a rise out of this by showing off their exclusive emotes and how close and important they think they are to the streamer.

if you want to toss a few bucks toward someone that you enjoy watching and want to support, I don’t really see the issue.

If you want to pay a few bucks to get rid of ads and maybe get some stuff in the process? I don’t see the problem.

No one is forcing these people to pay, and they can watch for free. If they want to spend their money on that, why should you care? Not coming out of your pocket.

There are lots of (single, unmarried with 0 children, no/few friends) people working regular jobs who have more money than they can spend.

You're making your point worse.

It's a waste if money you don't get anything and there are better things you could buy with that money

>Implying you don't live in a basement and have any form of income kek

Yeah and I explained why that is.
It is however a very effective way to create a echochamber of people sucking your dick.

That's more autistic than saying "implying" after someone says some dumb shit.

Most of the time they're kiddies or literal autists who can never know better who got a hold of their heart surgeon dad's CC.

why would you do that man that ain't cool
have some empathy, live and let live

>who have more money than they can spend.
that's a funny way of saying "who are too stupid to save or invest"

You NEET virgins are pathetic. I sub and sonate daily to plenty of streamers because they are entertaining and i want to support them.
I happen to be a mod at plenty of female streamer channels and i get ever lasting joy at popping a perma ban at you bitter autists.

t. anonymous, whose dad works at ECHELON

>ad-free
Twitch has ads?

>I happen to be a mod at plenty of female streamer channels
please tell me this is bait

This is what happens when you consume too much soy

Quit watching only the streamers with the most viewers and find some decent ones

Oh Christ on His throne.

NOT EVEN!
PEOPLE PAY MONTHLY FOR STREAMERS TO PRETEND TO BE THEIR FRIEND AND GIVE THEM A TINY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ON STREAM THAT THEY DO NOT GET IN THEIR DAY TO DAY, COMPANIONLESS LIFE. LMAO

Streamers can choose to play ads whenever they wish. Also I think on some channels an ad plays when you enter the stream

With a bit more seasoning this can be some fine bait copypasta. Don't give up

desu i only sub to one person because they have really freaking cool emoticons, and when more people sub, it opens the threshold to even more emoticons

uhmmm, how about NO, sweetie BORT

...

i say implying all the time. i also point my fingers in a chevron shape to pretend i'm greentexting in real life. my friends think it's hilarious.

yeah, it pops tomorrow with the new ToS
they're gonna do a salted earth purge of most of their users who don't agree with the liberal hivemind they want to implement
i hear they're gonna live stream the bannings

To be honest, I came in this thread to mock these saps, but thinking about it that way it's pretty fucking sad to be so alone you pay someone just for acknowledgement.

>have really freaking cool emoticons
This thread just keeps on giving.

I only give money to my waifu CinCinBear.

>this thread
Either the commies should've won or I'm a fucktard for never getting into business.

What you personally find idiotic is subjective--you say you don't mind other people "wasting" their money, but it isn't a waste to them. People only call other peoples' use of money a waste when their use of it doesn't align with how they'd personally use the money, which is typically the lens through which most people view the spending habits of others.

$5 to get my viral/shill add shown to thousands of people. Its a great deal you fucking retards. And no I dont do it on Cred Forums.

I always thought having wealthy lineage and a trust fund would be the answer to most of life's problems. All I can see here is that it creates more social issues than anything.

Nobody would subscribe to you anyway.

5$ / month

2.5$ goes to streamer
2.5$ goes to Twitch

Only a handful of really "famous" streamers get a better deal.
You're paying Twitch half, so you're paying for emotes, storage, badges and flair.
Emotes, badges and channel flair is made by the streamer themself.
Unless it's a high profile guy who hires an "artist".

How much did you pay for that cool emote?

Keep 'em coming

I've noticed that people that are subscribed to this guy are basically all autistic or at least on the spectrum. But I don't get why they act so much like a virus in other channels' chats when the the guy's stream itself seems just kinda average? He just plays Hearthstone and PUBG.

uhhhhhhh

I have no problem with, and nothing but compassion for, people who do this kind of thing and are aware and able to admit it.
It's the ones who legitimately try to convince themselves and others that what they are doing isn't pathetic, that are subhumans.

you not a girl so you would not have gotten anywhere.

>It's a waste if money you don't get anything
You get to watch your favorite streamer without advertisements and get to use emotes that are only available to subscribers.

>there are better things you could buy with that money
There are worse things you could buy with that money as well, and people can choose what they want to spend their money on.

Yeah thanks dude I know what subjectivity is that's why I never said things like "Its a fact"

>be given a link to a twitch clip on some other device with no adblock available
>watch it there for convenience
>like 3 mins long ad play before can see the clip
>clip is 30 seconds long

I don't do it, but I don't see the issue. If a streamer entertains you regularily there's no harm in giving them fuel.

Streamers are exploiting sad, pathetic, emotionally stunted loners to make an honest buck playing video games. There's nothing wrong with that, they are living the dream.

>being this delusional
>trying to to justify being a wagecuck
There is a reason why you are where you are in life.

I have to make a concious effort not to say LOl, kek, lmao out loud or say greentext statements in the tone I read them in. Do this And more. Its suffering. Alternatively when typing I do it how I say things aloud and make bizarre homophone errors. Like I had to think allowed v.s. aloud for a second there. I've began audibly pronouncing the a in than v.s. the e in then to help as well as saying they are.

HAHA SALT KAPPA XD
You are a child.

this guy gets it

Dont you have and 8 hour souless job to get to?

Yes, and they are able to bypass most popular ad-blockers, as they are integrated into the stream itself.

pull the trigger nerd

It's their money. If they want to throw money at a guy playing video games on the internet they can do that.

how about you dont tell me what streamers i can and cant spend money on and i dont tell you which 2D tranny cartoons you can or cant buy

>all jobs dont exploit people
Are you 5 years old?

>not replying with 4Head

That future we live in. I hope i live to see VR replace monitors, home motion capture and motion/voice controls.

Streamers turn what should be a hobby into a boring fucking job. I pity them, honestly, if I had to play games for 8 hours a day I'd kill myself.

Sure, the money is good if you're actually funny and entertaining, and it's less work than a real job, but it's still soul-draining wage slavery.

>buy

T. Failed Streamer

people are just laughing at you for being a retard, no need to get so defensive
well actually i guess it is something to get defensive about, being a retard and all. but you'll learn eventually.

>tfw you play video games 16+ hours a day and you're not even getting paid

Streaming is especially skeezy, though. It's barely one step removed from CS:GO gambling, you're still making your paycheck off children in an unregulated market rife with abuse.

>i pirate shit meme
I forget this board is comprised of children

I can somewhat agree. If I wasn't poorfag student I would probably subscribe to some channels since they brought me plenty entertainment. I listen/watch to streams when I play slow games.

Ok bait have a (You)

trump would be proud.

>kids having their hands cut off in Africa from mining rare earth metals in africa is less sleazy than CSGO players
Listen to yourself

Aris?

I'd never want to do it, I'm a pretty boring person and I don't like talking. If you're an extrovert it's probably not as bad, but imagine waking up in the morning and knowing that you have to play fucking PUBG for the next 8 hours.

The only time I play video games for 16 hours is when I find a really good one, which happens maybe once a year at this point.

You sure can.
You can even shove an old glass jar up your ass on camera 'till it breaks.
Doesn't mean people can or can't laugh at you for being a dumdum.

>haha its my le moral obligation to financially support these talented entertainers :^)

jesus christ i feel ill. how do gentiles operate like this?

Well to be fair aren't we doing the same thing on here? Except here you get attention from random nobodies.

you fucking faggots have no idea how shit works. if you stop buy or paying for content then that very content will cease to exist.

Top kek underageb& who didn't know the existence of streaming before Twitch or even Justin.tv.

They're the same kind of people who think they have a moral obligation to buy fucking games.

Speaking as someone who has actually bought porn, just because it wasn't accessible for free and I loved the author's other shit, I cannot for even an iota of a second understand the logical hurdles you have to jump through to pay someone for a "product" you can have for free.

When that guy eats samples at the supermarket, does he feel obligated to buy the product?

This always confused me. Why would someone pay money for a stream that you could literally watch for free?

there will always be morons who pay for that rubbish, you're meant to be smarter than that.

Not just that, but they pay them hundreds of dollars per day in donations. The top 50 streamers on twitch make upwards of a thousand dollars per day doing nothing but playing video games.

When loltyler1 was unbanned from league, his first day back streaming it he made 40 thousand dollars in subs+donations.

>if you stop buy or paying for content then that very content will cease to exist.

thats funny because i havent paid for entertainment in fucking years and yet it's still there. hell i dont even pay my taxes anymore and yet roads still exist. how does that work?

I aprove of this , the swedish roleplayer is actually a cool dude

>since they brought me plenty entertainment
you must be easily amused

>if you stop buy or paying for content then that very content will cease to exist.
There's an endless revolving door of brainlets like you who will give money to millionaires, though. Even if every person on this board stopped giving money to E-beggars, nothing would change.

Yeah, but here its for free and nobody's under the decision that they're eachothers friends, except maybe the janitors. Twitch subs lick streamer boots like Cred Forums janitors lick mod ass, except instead of doing it for free they have to pay for it.

>10 seconds youll never get back
>literally marching to your grave

What is wrong with kids these days? Why are they paying money they got from their hardworking parents to watch strangers play video games? I don't get it

I told my Dad, a hard working Man how much these streamers make and even pointed him to twitch to take a look. That wigger summit1g was streaming at the time so he went to his channel. I told him that this idiot makes my Dad's whole yearly salary a week.

I think I fucked up showing him this because he just looked dead inside afterwards and hasnt been the same since.

This, literally me.

>only has 2 screens

Watch it buddy. I'm best friends with user.

Imagine being as stupid as this fucking clown.

Kill yourself kid, you aren't even capable of understanding his post.

Because we don't watch the games, we watch the streamer.

You paid...just not with money.

The difference is you get enjoyment out of those

Yeah pretty much

Please keep replying. The fact im wasting your time is giving me an erection

You can watch the streamer without paying tho.

This.
I don't get why they're so defensive over people laughing at them for wasting mommy's money.

>paying for Amazon prime
You're as dumb as people who sub, dude.

I abuse free trials to get amazon prime for nothing.

>there are ACTUALLY autistic people who get angry for others not liking something they understand

I support the streamer that I like to watch. Is that somehow hard to comprehend? People pay for other means of entertainment like vidya all the time

Tryins this hard. Sucks to be poor

Well shit user, if it makes you happy I guess

My cock is throbbing at your replies

I never seen a single ad in a stream, what are you talking about. Wouldn't adblock block that?
Also I see people pay hundreds of dollars, that's WAY over what you need to pay to not see ads, is it not?

>post chinese cartoons
Yeah you are 5

Not since recently. Twitch has entered "too big to fail or give a fuck" mode and is just doing openly greedy shit like completely circumventing adblockers by injecting advertisements directly into the stream. So even if you pause or close the stream when an ad starts, it will play it again when you reload or restart the stream.

And the best part, when people bitch about this on the twitch subleddit, staff tells them to fix it by subscribing to twitch prime.

You are already paying with your time by watching that crap

It's like giving a buck to street artist. If you think it's that easy to stream, try it. You'll probably run out of shit to talk in few minutes. And I'm not saying that typical twitch streamer is good. It's personal opinion of course but it's like 1 in a 1000 when it comes to good streamers.

Its not worth the effort. That being said I did make 3 different student accounts and still have the discount years after graduating.

I have no ads with Ublock Origin. Update your filters?

>not thinking your time has a value
T. Brainlet

Yeah, and i can laugh at them all day if i want it.
And there's NOTHING you can do about it.

>paying 50 bucks a year for something that should be free
Let me guess, you also pay for Xbox live and PS plus?

...

>It's like giving a buck to street artist

i'll never understand this either. street """artists""" do not contribute to society. they do not deserve a cent.

So be it I guess?

You must watch streams where the streamer doesnt play ads. There is currently no possible way to block ads if the streamer does choose to play them.

>on discord talking to friend
>he uses greentext
>meme it up and say "who are you quoting?"
>he gives me this whole speech about how greentext is from Cred Forums

My man, I said I've never seen a single ad in a stream. The only time I wasted is the time I wasted watching some fag play a game on camera.

>the effort
What, making a second account by putting a period in your e-mail? Really taxing, dude.

Why the fuck should prime be free? I'm fairly certain they run it at a loss.

>not paying for premium Air
bet you breath that filth in your room

I wouldn't call Ice getting whipped by prostitutes and farting on children entertainment m8

>cant block ads
>ad starts playing
>at least try to mute it
>pressing the mute button opens the website in the advertisement

Its actually funny how open they are about being greedy jews.

I can watch twitch streams through mpc and streamer and there are no ads.

Streamers aren't like that. Deep down they're all egomaniacs who'll do anything so long as they're praised for it. As long as there's a platform they will exist for attention money or not. Video sharing sites existed before monetization, afterall. The streamers only get money because competition between video services like youtube and twitch creates a need for some way to make their platform more appealing for content creators then the others.

>my man
Please, keep provong how dumb you are by replying.

I've been watching stuff like esport tournaments that surely run ads during breaks

Yeah its only like what $99 a year. Fuck me dude get a job. I only made accounts when I could do it for a year. A Month nah..

I've watched dozens of streams where the streamer even says "I'm going to play a minute long ad now" in the past week, and I haven't seen an ad.

You might be the biggest brainlet here. They make a shitload off prime.

That's what Stalin said too, commie

It's your parents' money, isn't it?

>fairly certain
Translation: "i dont really know but i want to sound like im right"

Well thats all a load of bollocks.
Unless you are the kiddy who watches via his phone

Whats wrong with Xbox Live and PS plus? Do you not play online?

>Whats wrong with Xbox Live and PS plus
Come on dude. You get same, even better, for free on PC.

>face cam

>He pays to be allowed to use his own internet with his games

Cuck

If you seriously need prime ALL YEAR because you're buying that much crap off Amazon, then you have to make 11 whole accounts at a total time cost of maybe an hour if you're slow and very stupid.

Now, I'm sure you've got a great highpaying job where you make 100 bucks an hour, which is why you're currently shitposting on Cred Forums.

>le for free on PC

Not him but what happened to playing online for free? It used to be like that on the PS3.

Youre either bullshitting or have something else. Ublock cant block the new twitch ads.

I donate from time to time to unpopular streamers who are more pathetic than me to feel better about myself.

Nice counter argument, you still didn't give me the reason that makes you think paying hundreds of dollars to a streamer you can watch for free is ok.
You just spouted
>muh value of money
And I can get that, time IS worth something, but you still don't need to pay that much to avoid ads. You can pay the minimum and still don't see them, or use more "creative" and free ways.
You have no reason to pay more than the bare minimum, so I ask you: what pushes people to go over that?

The only chats that are useable are the ones where there's like 10 people, or the ones where you're just shitting into a shit ocean like in clintsteven's chat.

>paying for emoticons
Steam has something right up your alley, valuable goy.

It's real sad in the smaller streams where no one ever subs or donates and the streamer just sits around with an empty chat.

Maybe off inactive subs. But it for sure costs more than $60 a year to drive all those packages to my house.
zdnet.com/article/amazon-prime-delivers-nice-revenue-for-2016-doesnt-cover-net-shipping-costs-yet/
See above.
And this eliminates shipping costs how? Its a small fraction of a company that still hasn't realized amazing profits. Bezos his rich because of his stake in the company translating to net worth. Not actual profit into dividends or salary alone.

Yes

imho it takes a lot of balls to go out on the street and practically beg for money. If something would happen to me that would make me piss poor, I'd probably starve before I'd find the courage a street performer has.

Paying subscription makes you feel special and using free service feels wrong because corporations don't suck your dick every time you resubscribe?

Actually i'm neet since june'17 and living off savings.

>>Maybe off inactive subs. But it for sure costs more than $60 a year to drive all those packages to my house.
You're already paying for the cost of shipping in the price of the item, brainlet supreme.

Do you not understand how Amazon operates or something?

Well in Firefox and similar browsers you can still mute via the speaker button on the tab just don't use twitch's own mute button and it won't pause.

Stopped watching his streams now that he hardly plays Tekken anymore.

Might come back if he gets deep into SC6.

Have fun with it while it lasts user. When you're older, pumping twenty bux every night into a streamer's purse so he can continue to crack mediocre jokes seems rather stupid.

Ok mate, keep your non-argument up. This is your last (You), take it, you've earned it.
Never have I been baited so hard before, you kinda starded becoming obvious after the 2nd reply though, you should work on that.

my southern european blood makes it impossible for me to donate money
it really is the germanic genes

Bet it smells nice and musky in his room. Like cock, ballsack, and farts. Mmm mmm

As long as you don't watch those cancerous Twitch irl streamers

>he thinks actual facts is bait
>youre wrong and im not replying so i win

Stop being so defensive user

People get something in return for buying all that crap. You get nothing in return besides maybe some emoticons, and even that is dumb as fuck. Fool and his money, I suppose.

>if i say im being baited then its fine
Lel

I think you mean FailFish FailFish

Do you? They charge MSRP on all their goods. Prime creates business by driving sales. They actually lose money shipping to prime users as I said there. But of course they save money in areas pertaining to physical locations, economies of scale etc. But the fact of the matter is if you bought prime and ordered a shit tonne,vs buying it all at walmart, walmart gets the better deal, Amazon has no markup over MSRP. Prime is effectively a loss leader. Saying it shpuld be "free" is like saying console hardware should be free cause they make their profit licensing games and accessories, sure but they still need to offset bomb cost. Besides they include streaming shit now.

Actually, no, you don't "get" those emoticons, you're renting emoticons, which is even more hilarious.

You're still paying royaly to the jews who own amazon dumb fuck

>streamer's purse so he can continue to crack mediocre jokes seems rather stupid.
I'm not subscribed to anybody mate
You can't play online without PSN and you can't play BB or other exclusive on PC.

I used to really wonder how one goes about becoming successful on twitch but I've figured it out after about a year of visiting the website regularly.

There are two ways. You can

A) Hang off the teat of as many A-listers as you can, literally crawling inside of their ass and never relenting on riding their dick. Greekgodx is a great example of this.

B) Become a lucky overnighter like Kripp. Dude had literally no viewership on twitch and was a literallywho in the streaming community despite being a bottle pissing MMO grinding youtuber. Then Diablo 3 came along and skyrocketed him into a fame that snowballed.

Pretty sure theres no other way.

>bypasses
Bullshit.

I'm pretty sure after watching a few streams, people donate so they can get the streamer to notice them

Sounds pathetic but hey what can ya do

So you pay to play BB PvP?

>A) Hang off the teat of as many A-listers as you can, literally crawling inside of their ass and never relenting on riding their dick. Greekgodx is a great example of this.
Pretty believable. That's basically Lirik's legacy right there.

>you wasted time typing what everyone already knows.
Pathetic

>the best online store with the best overall service in the fucking world
>WHY ARE YOU GIVING THESE "insert shit pol meme here" money
yea fuck you nigger I used Amazon when they only had books and shit.

Go to bed greek.

Christ, is there a brainlet level past brainlet supreme? I think you might actually be the least knowledgable fuck I've ever met.

Protip: Walmart has to ship all their shit to all their stores. If you can't understand the basics of stock levels and shelf space, you're so far beyond Dunning-Kruger that it's pointless even replying to you.

Prime is nowhere CLOSE to a loss leader. Stop taking the surface level figures as gospel, and understand how the company actually operates. But hell, you think streaming services actually cost the provider money when we're talking about a company that owns AWS here, so that much might be miles beyond you.

It's true but playstation gives up the games every month including VR games. If twitch gave me free games every month and I was already on twitch I might buy a sub.

How did you know im greek?

I've never subscribed to anyone, but the streamer I watch has a nice (although retarded) fan base. I've been 'gifted' a sub at least twice.

who the fuck goes to youtube for news

yea there is no other option mate not defending PSN but you have to use it.

>post Kappa in chat

Is twitch vidya cuckoldry?

HE DOESN'T KNOW forsenKek

and he did nothing wrong

I'm a Witcher.

Can smell your belly button funk.

No. When will people realize that the reason why people watch is the streamer themselves, not the games they play?

I have Amazon Prime and use my free sub on just a single streamer.

Literally have to pay for TV in Germany, even if you don't have a TV or Internet. There is no way around it unless your are heavily disabled.

which one are you?

I buy games though

Jokes on you

>He just plays Hearthstone and PUBG

>If I found out anyone who worked for me donated to a streamer, I'd make their lives a living hell forcing them to quit.
Well its a good thing mcdonalds hasnt promoted you from fry monkey in that case.

People also resubscribe for the tiered badge. Subaversaries. Don't get me started on cheer badges.

So youre a wage cuck then.

I'd laugh, but we have to pay some highwaymen for shit internet here in Freedomland.

who my friend?

I have a theory that gaming streamers play like shit on purpose to get their chat to donate to them just to tell them to get their head out of their ass.

Why would you watch ANYONE attempt to fill dead air for hours? I can't think of a single person alive that I'd watch that long for their personality. There's a reason TV is edited, because people are fucking boring 80% of the time at best.

I feel like the sole appeal of Twitch is that it's "live and interactive", but it isn't interactive unless you pay, and the live aspect is something that seems pretty meaningless.

When was the last time you watched a fucking VOD? Never, right? Nobody has ever felt like watching playback on a 6 hour stream.

So why would you watch it live while typing emotes into the fucking chat? What do you actually gain, a primitive monkey sense of community?

And where pray tell do you get money to give to your favourite virtual friend?

That's still cuckoldry by any sense. Also fyi I always search streams by typing the game I wanna watch, not by memey ecelebs

I pay for quality Pachinko streams, also I support a bad game developer via Parteon.

Trust fund

Also can I have fries with that user?

My grand grand dad was executed because of suspicion of foreign contact under Stalins rule because some one tiped police that he receives letters from aboard. Several years later his neighbor admitted that she falsely accused him because of some domestic dispute. And that's just my personal example.
Educate yourself amerifat commie, Stalin was worse than Hitler. At least people did under Hitlers rule died for his people Stalin offed his own people to keep fear going.

It's not really true. Some streamers yes, but most of streamers are popular due to one particular game. Out of those streamers i watched from my country 1 used to stream hs for thousands, now streams random shit for 100-150 viewers since he was tired of hs. Another one used to stream lol for 500-800 viewers, now streams fortnite for 50.

It's such an interesting phenomenon.
Traditionally if you subscribed to a magazine for example, you would receive something for that subscription (the magazine) that you could only receive because you had paid the subscription.
But people actually pay for twitch "subscriptions" even when that content is available to everyone, regardless of whether they subscribe or not.
Literally paying for nothing.

>Christ, is there a brainlet level past brainlet supreme? I think you might actually be the least knowledgable fuck I've ever met.
K bud.
>Protip: Walmart has to ship all their shit to all their stores.
Oh wow really? Does wal mart have 8 different stores on every block that they drop off every single fucking product to indivudually? Gee wiz? Hang on. Whats this? Wal mart doesn't do free sameday on online orders!?!?
>If you can't understand the basics of stock levels and shelf space, you're so far beyond Dunning-Kruger that it's pointless even replying to you.
I realistically know way more about this than you. Obviously amazon saves a shit tonne of money not renting retail and using effective warehouse management. This howevwr has nothing to do with your two factually incorr3ct claims.
Prime is in itself profitable.
I disproved.
Amazon puts shipping costs into pricez
Factually incorrect if you understand MSRP. EA does not include the cost of Amazon driving trucks to my house to include MSRP. So when amazon sells me a game 20% off that price and has a guy personally deliver that product to my house they dont magically get a larger margin to compensate
>Prime is nowhere CLOSE to a loss leader.
It literally is. I posted the numbers its an objective truth. You dont know whwt a loss leader is. The goal is to grow it so thst economies of scale and decreases in shipping costs/reliance on third parties make it break even or make a small profit sure. But the goal is to get people to buy more from Amazon, enough to offset the loss and turn a profit.
>But hell, you think streaming services actually cost the provider money
Yes they pay licensing costs and too develop content
>when we're talking about a company that owns AWS here, so that much might be miles beyond you.
Yes AWS however does not make telivision shows free to produce or licensing costs non existant.

Sure thing sir *ptoo*

>instead of making huge streamer bucks you are trapped here forever
>tfw did not start streaming in 2012
>tfw could not stream because my connection was shit

I'm guilty. But I don't pay to watch. I subscribe to 3 people in my speed running community that have helped me in various ways. 2 of them through knowledge of our game, and one that spent an inordinate amount of time helping me get my stream set up and looking good.

I refuse to feel bad about it. If you have disposable income, there are worse things to spend it on than supporting gaming as entertainment, and the platform that allows it.

The only real way to constantly sustain growth on Twitch is to do one very simple thing, and that Dr Disrespect guy does it very well - take the best parts of your personality and exaggerate them as much as you fucking can. There are too many people on Twitch that are so dull, so monotone, so thankful, so "if you dont like this dont come here lmao"

The only way to really stand out is to exaggerate. Become a character. Turn all your best aspects into a character and let it take flight.

You were supposed to start at least 2009.

>free twitch
Watch ads
>sub Twitch
Dont see ads

Your whole post got debunked in less than 3 min. You are not as "profound" as you think you are user.

My connection is still shit. It's one of the joys of country living. Stream retro games, and omit the webcam. You can still have a good following if you have a mic and any personality at all.

Stalin won World War 2 you ignorant slut.

there was no twitch in 2009 if you streamed in 2012 everyday you would be fucking big now even without facecam shit.

Lol stay mad wagecuck

What are these ads people keep bringing up in this thread?

T. Never been on twitch

I think the problem is in your sheer retardation you seem to think
"Company makes profit" somehow translates to "every endevour costs $0." I Mean could Amazon give everyone free prime and still make a profit? Probably. Does that make tv licensing free? No. Was the budget of grand tour $0? No. Does that make MSRP include the cost of driving a game to my house within 2 hours of me ordering? No. So yes prime is quite literally the definition of a loss leader.

No, he's mocking your claiming that you need PSN to play bloodborne, which is untrue. It's an exclusive, but the online compatabilities are optional.

He was giving you the benefit of the doubt by saying pvp, because if you ever use it for coop, you're shit.

WRONG
Every other day.
>T.
Oh it's a phoneposter.

He is correct though. Allies only took care of western front and little parts of Africa, which were basically negligible when you look at OH FUCKING HELL EASTERN FRONT.
If I recall correctly, initially eastern front was also packed with german veterans, while western was full of greenhorns.

Nothing "profound" about it.
But I would be quite pissed off if I was someone who paid for a subscription only to find that other people who never paid for a subscription got access to the same stream as me.
Do they literally pay for emojis or an "ad free" experience?

I gave one dude $10 once because I felt like he deserves it after a particularly autistic ordeal.

I would never pay per month though.

>t.russian

This. Literally brainlet. Dropped Stalker, bugged the shit out of KC:D and was annoyed by it...

technically its only for public TV and Radio, so the other TV channels are private and free. But yeah there's still no way around paying these 210€ a year

>he thinks it doesn't

I would rather watch an ad than pay for a subscription. t. Cred Forums user

Has to stop the stream to watch ads vs. Watching g a stream uninterrupted

I'm sorry if you deny to look at things from the objective perspective. Stalin was a terrible tyrant, but without him it would be impossible for allies to win.

You're acting like the Japanese were even a factor on the eastern front. They were too busy committing war crimes in China and Korea and be Star Spangled Awesomed by America to do anything sizeable to Russia.

And yes, Russia was the single most important factor to winning World War 2, even if it was because of Hitler's Hubris, denying general winter.

America won America's side of World War 2, and their sole effect on the western front was Normandy, which people pretend was a good idea. Normandy is what happens when you're playing civilization 5 and you send 50 marines against 5 entrenched marines from sea, up a hill, into a castle.

Sure, you won, but you're a fucking idiot and now you're useless.

And you literally can't do anything about it.

>People pay monthly to play xbox and playstation online.

You're right, only you can cure yourself of your newfaggotry

>doesnt know that like hulu, they found away around adblock
Youre either trolling or really stupid.

I would give somebody money, but I don't like nobody for real. I can watch Lirik/Soda/Forsen, but they will always say/do something stupid enough. I don't feel like somebody is my guy, they all pathetic.

Yeah let´s pay some faggot on Twitch instead of buying games with that money and actually supporting developers.

Fucking Gen Z trash.

What you're doing is helping people you know personally out financially in a way that protects their pride by making it seem like business. That's not the same thing as a random twitch sub.

>he therefore accepts that you can't disable ads on twitch anymore
remain a peasant
ever since I started using dns level adblocking I've not seen an ad on any platform, twitch included.
You'd make a fantastic slave

This is ironic, considering the vast amount of Twitch revenue comes from the generous hands of horny/lonely 12 year olds with their parent's credit cards.

Lend-lease mostly went to uk. In ussr case it only heavily helped with an airplanes since ussr didn't had enough aluminium.

Are you actually a streamer or just one of their findom cucks?

Anyway just like youtube only a handful of people make all the money and everyone else spends money and does it for free. Almost everyone on youtube and twitch doesn't get jack shit.

>blocking ads is piracy

>Lend-Lease
Yeah, that helped too. But you can't really win wars by throwing empty tanks and rifles at the enemy. On other hand, throwing seemingly endless supply of troops worked, so we'll leave it at that.
Nice meme, clapfriend. It's fun how I'm speaking better and slightly more eloquent english than you are, don't you think?

I hate to break it to you, but you'll eternally be a newfag. 2010 is far too late to ever be an oldfag, even when 50 years have passed you'll still be a newfag.

Its not irony. Its happenstance you fucking moron.

Watching videogames streams are an objective waste of time anyways, so people that make a hobby out of it have bigger issues. Honestly, all streamers and "content creators" should be put to death and the platform of streaming should be outlawed while video services are heavily monitored for content quality.

>It's fun how
you mean "funny" my eloquent ruskie friend

>Yeah, that helped too. But you can't really win wars by throwing empty tanks and rifles at the enemy. On other hand, throwing seemingly endless supply of troops worked, so we'll leave it at that.
There's no denying that, of course.
I think more Russians died than Germans, too.

>Prime is nowhere CLOSE to a loss leader. Stop taking the surface level figures as gospel.
Wait so you are saying they sell a product at a loss because it generates more profit elsewhere? Is there a term for this? "where surface level figuires" show you are selling something at a loss but you do so to increase your total profit across the board? There definitely should be a term for this. Maybe something "like to be deprived of , first place?"

Does papa still trust you, user?

i have never seen an ad on twitch because i am not retarded and use ad blockers

>choosing Youmu when there are plenty of others, better toe-hoes to choose from
Jesus christ lad miss me with that gay shit

It's already free to watch. The only reason to pay is for access to the exclusive sub chat and emotes.

Gone are the days when streaming was about entertaining your tiny group of strangers, and playing a list of your favorite movies.
It's sad your average normalshit thinks he has to give something money to get joy from it.

>tfw managed to sneak PopTepiPic episodes into my streams because I'm a small streamer

Fuck ads, fuck TV, fuck streamers, fuck niggers who try to bypass my adblock and fuck all these shitty malicious and cancerous javascript ads that are riddled with malware. If advertising on the internet hadn't always been scummy cancer that tried to give your computer virtual AIDS maybe people wouldn't be using ad-block en masse.

Marketing has a bomb cost? And is a consumer product? No I was thinking maybe 1st place at losing?

What I don't understand is people donating hundreds of dollars to rich as fuck streamers who driver sports cars.

Like I'd understand if you donated to some small streamer because you liked him

Never. I feel like I've been on Cred Forums since 2010 as well, but my memory is so bad, I only remember stuff from 2011 Cred Forums stuff like Dragon Age 2, Megaman Legends 3's cancellation, Deus Ex Human Revolution, etc.

>twitch is a hobby

even watching anime is more of a hobby than twitch

210 €uros for public tv? For real?

>only give money to Forgotten Weapons
Good user.
Only time I donated was to the folks developing UnReal World for ages past, long before Steam was in the equation.
Either way, the only streams (or rather the VODs) I watch are of this guy I've enjoyed since 2009 and then a guy who's great at this one game I enjoy without being a cheesing autismo.

I love the toucan meme. It really cracks me up haha

>No matter how dark things get at least you don't donate to twitch streamers

>or defend it when people laugh at you

How does people like you gain any joy from giving money to autists and scammers?
Is it becuase you get some sort of self worth out of seeing or hearing your name on stream? Is it becuase you think it's funny to read a text chat that scrolls past you so fast and is filled with so much spam and shitposting that it becomes literal word soup?

Or is it becuase you are a pathetic human being that is only happy if someone uses and abuses you.
You should probably find some professional help if anything I just wrote makes you either angry or sad.

How do you know that?

Admit that you're a friendless loser who subs to streamers to hear them say your gay username out loud

Yeah, I pay it with the money I make from twitch subs.

Think about an extra 2.49 x 238 a month. Its nice for playing games, my HOBBY, for about 4 to 6 hours 4 times a week.

No, I don't do shutouts or any shit like that.

This post is subjective.

Why does it bother you what other people think and post?

I can even understand people paying for camwhores, especially now that lovense is a thing.

But people paying to a characterless uninteresting loser to pay a video game...

All the people I've seen streaming were narcissistic edgelords or unfunny boring people.

Becuase it is directly linked to your ''entertainment'' getting worse and worse. It's like paying for youtube red, YouTube gets money for fucking with peoples channels and making their interface worse and worse every year, while whoever is signed up to the program gets pity money instead of their usual income through commercials for every video that is linked to the program.

But hey, atleast you actually get SOMETHING for getting tricked out of your money, unlike Twitch.

26 emoticons!! sign me up senpai

Ok. People also pay to see movies, or to watch TV, or to go to a concert. Paying for entertainment is pretty standard.

You can endlessly sign up for the free month of Amazon Prime using the same card each time but making a new account. Its great I do it everytime I need to buy something from them for that free 2 day shipping.

To watch people play video games. Its a huge difference

No, it's true! What a deal!

>le streamcuck argument

>twitch
>entertainment

choose one

If I enjoy a streamer, I subscribe. If they don't get subscribers, they don't make money streaming, which means they will no longer stream, or won't stream nearly as often, which means everyone who enjoys them won't get to watch anymore.

Do you also get mad at people for donating to charities?

>streamers who bring joy and happiness in their lives
that sounds really pathetic to be honest

>I can even understand people paying for camwhores, especially now that lovense is a thing.
I really can't, lovesense is aids. Everyone and their mom has one, and all they do with it is act like a fucking spastic. What's worse is it makes camewhores think it's sexy to just sit around in full clothing, or dance around naked, they rarely use a propper dildo anymore.

How's that?

Why? How is having a streamer you enjoy any different from having a movie or TV star you enjoy? Or, I'm just gonna guess about this, but in your case, having a favorite JAV idol?

Streams fundamentally cannot be entertaining, unless they're pre-recorded highlights with live commentary or something.

You might be delusional enough to think that waiting for a space shuttle launch is entertaining, but it's just lots of downtime and then a minute of excitement. The vast majority of any live broadcast will always be dogshit, which is precisely why movies and TV shows aren't 20 hours long and filled with lots of dead air and actors awkwardly shuffling about the set.

the only remotely funny and not socially awkward streamer is lord aris

I don't have ADHD, faggot. There's a limited amount of time in the day, and spending 5 hours watching someone fail to make it through a game because they're too busy reading donations to pay attention to what's happening isn't really a good use of that time.

I can watch a TV show with variety, instead. Because I know that the staff spent a lot longer making the show than I spend watching it, and they cut out all the boring parts that are a basic fact of life to make the show. Sometimes they might try something, and it winds up on the cutting room floor because it wasn't interesting.

In a live experience, there is no cutting room. It's "unedited", and thus fundamentally dull.

its more social than social networks since someone is actually talking verbally

and aris talks to chat

You need rapid fire changes and quick editing to enjoy something. You definitely have ADHD, even if it hasn't been diagnosed.

> Not dsp

Either you have ADD or you're 6 years old. You having a shit attention span doesn't mean everyone is like that.

Jesus all these shills.
