This time it's amazon, apparently they bought it for 970M$. http://www.polygon.com/2014/8/25/6067061/amazon-confirms-acquisition-of-twitch-for-970-million
Didn't google do it, or did I miss something? Well, since it was confirmed, I missed something, but I can't get out my mind the image that twitch is being reporduced and sold to different people.
Anyways, I can't fathom what this will mean business wise, and amazon isn't known for good things in the field, however I'd say it's much better than Google just because of competition, if Youtube and Twitch were owned by the same company it would be a massive conflict of interests.
Maybe we'll make a posting game, who buys twitch for how much. Mini-market owner down the street buys twitch for 4.67$, 2 cigarettes and a used chewing gum.
