YouTube Expands Live Streaming To All Channels

An anonymous reader writes "YouTube today announced it is expanding its live streaming service to all YouTube channels. The Google-owned company now only has two requirements: your account must be verified and it has to be in good standing. If you have both, but don't see the feature yet, don't worry as it's rolling out 'over the next few weeks.' YouTube Live was previously only available to a small number of individuals and YouTube partners whom Google deemed worthy to test it out. The video site then opened up the feature to channels with at least 1,000 subscribers, and then at least 100 subscribers. Now it's available to all."

    hey it's that post where people complain about kids losing their ad revenue from exploiting commercial games without authorization for monetary reaosns because their tasteless jokes are the product they're paying for screwing money from the publishers. and Youtube is "terrible and worst" for taking their free money away. The gaming industry finally caught on to their dirty tricks and the internet is mad about it.
