People using Twitch will get more money per add (including MLG and NASL) because CBSi will be finding there ads. So now everyone showing adds from these services get more money. So more money in the scene and CBSi get's more exposure to a certain demographic. | ||

If you read the article on TNW tweeted by Kevin Lin of TwitchTV, they explain it pretty well in their article here: http://thenextweb.com/insider/2012/04/17/cbs-interactive-partners-with-twitch-tv-and-major-league-gaming-to-form-esports-behemoth/ In a nutshell, CBS now owns all advertising sales for MLG and TwitchTV as it relates to MLG broadcasting on TwitchTV. For this, CBS will share ad revenue with both entities, and share in cross promotions between TwitchTV and MLG on CBS Interactive websites. As the article states, eSports is growing, but what eSports doesn't have that CBS does is mature advertising selling infrastructure. This allows CBS to use its extensive Ad selling capabilities and networking to the benefit of eSports broadcasters and streaming sites. Good move by Twitch and any affiliates providing Twitch with content that have signed on to the CBS deal. | ||

Yes, and what this means is there are more people who will ultimately be supporting esports, because anyone who sells advertising through CBSi will be supporting MLG Twitch, sc2, etc.. basically it'll be easier to sell MORE advertising because CBSi has an easier sell than MLG does for itself... Edit: I think this is spectacular news! | ||

"Twitch.tv, which streams competitive multiplayer games around the world, will provide live streams of hugely popular games like Dota 2, World of Warcraft and Call of Duty to GameSpot's audience base, with CBS selling ads around the new content." what the hell is this. The reason twitch tv is where it is is because of starcraft 2 and (league of legend ) everyone should go to the article and tell them the role of starcraft 2.
