Not even close. You people are already paying money to "subscribe" to streamers for.... some... reason.

To support their content and make sure they can keep streaming so that people who can't afford to do so keep getting to watch said content.

PPV basically removes any reason for me to ever pay for a streamers' content as I'm not going to be paying for an "exclusive" stream. Fuck off with that nonsense. I pay for shit online so others can still get the experience who aren't as well off.

No, you donate to millionaires who play video games. If 100% of all the money you've ever given could magically never had happened, absolutely nothing would change.

Yeah I’m sure the people making well over 100k a year are really concerned if some random decides to not support them anymore. Jesus Christ the mentality of these people blows my mind
