Twitch Affiliates are generally working toward becoming Partners, an exclusive club of the world’s most popular career streamers. Of the more than 2 million active streamers on Twitch, only 17,000 are in the Partner program. On the other hand, the bar to enter the Affiliate program is set purposefully low: To get in, streamers need just 50 followers, and over the past month, an average of three concurrent viewers, seven unique live days and 500 total minutes broadcast. – Jessica Conditt, Engadget http://engt.co/2thNfaX
