Twitch

1. Twitch or TTV (Twitch.tv) is a website that allows gamers to stream live videos of themselves playing computer games. It was launched in June 2011 as a subsidiary of the personal streaming website Justin.tv. In any Twitch channel, the streamer usually inlays a webcam video and interacts with their audience with an IRC-style chatroom and a microphone. Viewers may subscribe to the channel for a fee, donate money to the streamer, or support the streamer financially by watching the occasional video advertisement.
Twitch.tv was purchased by Amazon in August 2014 for $970 million.
