it depends on the game, look at sc2 streamers for example 19/20 streamers have music on in the background. twitch will have to deal with it sooner or later aswell though

Did everyone forget about the drama gaming youtubers are currently having?

If that policy is kept then youtube is never going to be the new twitch, just another platform for the big events.

Not the end of twitch.tv, as twitch almost has a monopoly in live game streaming. Alternatives are needed, buffering on youtube is better so it may be a good option.

owned, livestream and ustream were top1 sites for streaming and nobody remembers about it these days, and youtube will take over, simply because it's streaming service will be better - there was a lot of festival streams on youtube and worked in 1080p back when twitch was struggling with 360 and 480

If they do stuff like that for streams, imagine how many would get flagged for just playing a song during a break or something.

They took town the Star Citizen anniversary stream because people sang the "Happy birthday" song. (copyright !?!?)

Also, this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JqjDhuPFaQ
(Obligatory "fuck Total Biscuit" by 2gd xD)

So no, using Youtube for streaming games/tournaments/whatever isn't a very good option at all.

our brain is only "aware" of 40fps, but our eyes can see much more than that. its why 48fps movies look too real and take people out of the experience, most movies are 24fps which is below the "40 hertz" our brain is aware of, so it doesn't seem "real". people don't like the 120hz tv smoothing because it looks too real to them, since it's over 40fps. basically you're wrong

There is not even a notion of "frame" for our brain, let alone "frames per second". All light sensing cells are working continiously and independent of each other.

You mean it's a well-known urban legend perpetuated by the scientifically illiterate. 30 FPS is a little over the edge between what our brains interpret as a series of still images and what our brains interpret as motion. What that means is that it's barely above someone taking a bunch of similar photos and quickly flipping through them for you.

Youtube is much better. You can go back in time and watch any portion of the stream while its still live and for me youtube never lagged while twitch is a mess.
I can't count the number of faceit finals I closed cause it lagged every 5 sec because of some overcrowded LOL streams.

ettv is full screen in game graphics and sound and no lag. You can switch to whatever pov you want during the broadcast. Furthermore, you can watch ettv replays with whatever pov you want. It is ideal for FPS. Streamz are bad.
