Well, it didn't really change since then ;)
One thing less in the internet that might not be part of a big conglomerate. Also, it is the most promising place where gaming could go for VODs when Youtube screws up even more, considering the partnership/affiliate trouble as of late. The extremely faulty Content ID system makes it even worse.

I am not looking forward to it.]]></description>

I dont really care about obnoxious 'share on' or similar buttons, as long as I dont require a Google+ account to use that service. Which is no longer required for most of Google's services, iirc, including YT.]]></description>

If Youtube livestreams are anything to go by, content ID is no friendlier towards streams than it is towards videos. 

I recall reading that the Star Citizen kickstarter anniversary party stream was automatically blocked because the people attending sung Happy Birthday  - with no recordings or other music in the background - and that triggered an automatic takedown. That was hilarious and sad at the same time.

It's not hard to imagine what this will do with streams that feature any kind of background music, or anything that <em>sounds</em> like music.]]></description>
