Good livestreaming alternative?
Lugnut:
Apparently livestream is now only available to people who want to pay.
Are there any alternatives with a similar service?
ChexGuy331:
twitch.tv?
Otis Da HousKat:
Twitch.tv, a subdivision of Justin.tv, is what a lot of people use currently to stream video games. The site split off from Justin and is intended specifically for video games.
Night Fox:
does that have ads?
from what I remember Justin.tv didn't have ads, so that shouldn't either
anything is better than Livestream
don't know why everybody even used it
Otis Da HousKat:
You usually get a an ad if you watch a previously recorded video and an occasional popup ad at the bottom of a stream. It's pretty noninvasive besides that. Streamers can force you to watch an ad but the people who do that have thousands of people watching their stream at any given time and hopefully do it during things like useless cut scenes, loading screens, or lobbies.
