It's good to see that they're taking initiative in this. Bingo, I will disable my adblock for the entire domain now that I don't have to use it to avoid getting extra commercials on resolution switching and reloading. | ||

Very few viewers are going to pay extra to subscribe to a specific stream with this new option available. They are under cutting all of the streamers with this service. Ive read from many streamers that they make a larger portion of their proceeds from monthly subscriptions than they do from ad revenue/CPM. main difference: people who subscribe to channels won't count to ads numbers. People who subscribe to turbo will. Can someone confirm if I am right? that's how I interpreted it. | ||

Except because people don't subscribe to skip the damn adds they subscribe to support the streamer. If they are the type that would like to support Twitch as a whole over their favorite streamer then it's their prerogative. | ||

No matter what the changes are everyone who wants esports to grow should have their adblock off at all times. Good changes either way from Twitch anyway. | ||

Or, if you're like me, you can't always tune into your favorite streamer(s) when they normally stream. Shelling out $5 for 1 guy that I may or may not get to watch for 1-2 weeks due to his/her schedule or mine sucks. Instead, I have to hope for an inconsistent streamer to go live, but I don't want to subscribe to 4 different streams for that case. | ||

The ad selection for Twitch is "small" because that's what is offered to them through the contracts they have. It's more of a problem that advertisers don't want to pay Twitch (and other online streaming sites) to run their ads. | ||

I think this is very missleading to say the least. The players don't get anything (only the normal add fee) from twitch turbo as far as i know. Actually Twitch treats it as thought the streamer is getting ad revenue from you, so it actually does support the streamer. | ||
