    Iv got a 10 meg fiber line and I can stream flawlessly with twitch, from what iv heard youtube has a much better compression rate, and should make live streaming way better than twitch...

    I'm meaning like streaming our own gameplay, not watching a stream, watching streams on my 10mb is perfect.

    O yes got you, sorry... That is a good question, I would assume the same problems with twitch would still exist though...

    Yeah the problem is the upload speed when trying to stream yourself. Problem is the prices get crazy when going for something any faster than a 10mb line in SA =/

    Wow! Watching 720p Witcher 3 live stream on Youtube Gaming and there's no buffering at all on my BitCo connection. On Twitch it buffered the whole time.

    I buffer on twitch too. They have issues. The Co-optional podcast is unwatchable live.

    Twitch has never worked well for me, so this can only be a good thing. Twitch exclusive live streams were like slideshows for me. Youtube hardly ever needs to buffer.
