A relaunch of YouTube's live streaming services is focused on gamers and eSports, branded "YouTube Live."
Google clearly sees the potential of this space, as they tried to acquire Twitch last year. Already having dipped their toes in live streaming, and broadcasting the League of Legends Championships since 2013, the relaunch promises a much bigger push. At only four years old and having a near monopoly on game streaming, Twitch promises to be a force to reckon with.
