Why on Earth would Twitch let themselves be bought by a company that was in the news just a few months ago for systematically destroying the Let's Play community?


Let's not pretend, many of us would do the same. Many people would quickly forget their opinion for $1M. And we are talking a billion. Can't judge those guys.


It kind of makes me sad to think of all the bad things I would do/let happen for $1 billion, or even $1 million.


I'd do a lot of bad things for a few millions. I do believe I'd spend a large part of the rest of those billions making things right. I hope.


For reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Let%27s_Play_%28vi...

I would argue that if twitch got big enough, they would have to deal with the same issues YouTube does today.

a billion all in cash
