Ce matin nous apprenons que le streaming 100% gaming Twitch se fait acheter par youtube pour une somme de Un milliards de Dollars. Je ne sait pas si c'est une bonne chose, mais youtube se diversifie dans le gaming.... Ou pas. A mon avis ce service sera proposé d'autres section du genre ''streaming cuisine, films ou encore bricolage'' pour générer plus d'argent. Sachez que twitch a refusé l offre de Microsoft qui proposait plus que la somme de Youtube, hé bien on a eu chaud, après skype......
YouTube to Acquire Videogame-Streaming Service Twitch for $1 Billion: Sources
Google’s YouTube has reached a deal to buy Twitch, a popular videogame-streaming company, for more than $1 billion, according to sources familiar with the pact.
The deal, in an all-cash offer, is expected to be announced imminently, sources said. If completed the acquisition would be the most significant in the history of YouTube, which Google acquired in 2006 for $1.65 billion. The impending acquisition comes after longtime Google ad exec Susan Wojcicki was named CEO of YouTube earlier this year.
Reps for YouTube and Twitch declined to comment.
San Francisco-based Twitch lets users upload and watch free, live gameplay videos that can be streamed from Microsoft Xbox and PlayStation 4 consoles. The company claims to have more than 45 million monthly users, with more than 1 million members who upload videos each month. It also has deals to distribute shows from partners including CBS Interactive’s GameSpot, Joystiq and Destructoid.
YouTube is preparing for U.S. regulators to challenge the Twitch deal, according to sources. YouTube is far and away the No. 1 platform for Internet video, serving more than 6 billion hours of video per month to 1 billion users worldwide, and the company expects the Justice Department to take a hard look at whether buying Twitch raises anticompetitive issues in the online-video market.
