Variety says it's happening (http://variety.com/2...ces-1201185204/) but the Wall Street Journal says there's interest by YouTube but the negotiations are still in a early stage (http://online.wsj.co...1736756672.html)

 

It's bad but honestly better than Microsoft buying it like the rumors were saying earlier this year.

A lot of money going around in tech.

 

Instagram = 1billion.

Whatsapp = 15 billion.

Twitch = 1 billion.

Oculus Rift = 3 billion.

Twitch = 3 billion.

Google just recently bought Divide(for the android)

If Google gets its way, then I can see that happening.

No! I gave them my Youtube already! They can't have my Twitch account. Dose everything these days require social media? Next thing you know Google and EA will make a deal that not only you need Origin, but a freaking G+ account as well!

Anyone else read the title in Dr. Evil's voice, complete with little finger tugging at my mouth's corner?

It's part of Google's plan to make themselves one big internet entity. But I highly doubt this rumor is even true.

I don't mind Google Plus, and Twitch pretty much already has mandatory advertisements on each stream. I would want to know what they would plan to do differently in terms of monetizing streams and the whole content ID matching and claiming process. Youtube isn't terrible, but Twitch offers so much more freedom and opportunity at this point for gamers.

The problem with Google+ is it's being shoved in everyones face.

Considering that Google dose nothing to protect content creators especially those who invole themselves in gaming Twitch will most likely be in the same boat.

pretty much. given the way YouTube handles third party notifications of copyright violations, I doubt Twitch Plays Pokemon would have lasted long with Google at the helm.
