Topic	Ex AC dev says Streamers need to pay DEVs.
sktgamer_13dude 10/22/20 8:03:48 PM #39:	s0nicfan posted... I agree that the work a streamer does in generating enterainment is a factor, but "free PR" isn't a good argument. Just ask any band or artist that had to take upaid gigs "for the exposure". An artist deserves compensation for their work, regardless of how much taking it and using it without paying them to make a profit "gives them free marketing." They did get compensated; by the streamer buying the game/in-game items. Only time they dont is when they give the streamer the game for free. And thats not the streamers fault. Again, music and movies are different than games. You consume that media by listening and watching those. You consume games by playing them. Youre not playing them when you watch the streamer. I dont know how this nuance is so hard for people to understand. --- https://imgur.com/jWVrg9U https://imgur.com/g2efUtT https://imgur.com/5dOwhaP https://imgur.com/LVdqu8J Go Cougs and M's #DI4B <cite>sktgamer_13dude posted [p:946174156] in Ex AC dev ...
