Wow. I don't even use Twitch, but I know it's utility. People went there just for refuge from incessant copyright infringes...now? They're just gonna have to jump ship to another site.

Good friend of mine is the coo there and at justin.tv. Everyone is blowing up his Facebook and he's keeping hush. Interested to see what happens. From what I read a few months ago, I thought it would be worth more but it's still a shitload of money.

Hitbox.tv looks like it's going to be one of the bigger players now. The guy who used to run own3d runs it now.

If you had YouTube account before google bought it, no. But you get pestered every time you sign in to "sync" it with a google+ account. If you're making a new one? Yes. It's synced with a google+ account.

They are about to get rid of it. Google is starting to separate things from Google +

The Wall Street Journal corroboratesthe rumors, but says that it's still early; Twitch may ultimately raise funding rather than sell itself off. The video-streaming service has told Engadget that it currently has no comment on the report
