Twitch Source: A Letter from the CEO - Twitch
Amazon Source: PR Department
Amazon just acquired Twitch according to CEO Emmett Shear. The announcement was released earlier today on Twitch.tv.
Today, I’m pleased to announce we’ve been acquired by Amazon. We chose Amazon because they believe in our community, they share our values and long-term vision, and they want to help us get there faster.
The following quote best represents the future partnership of Amazon and Twitch. Does this also hint that Google wanted to change to much?
We’re keeping most everything the same: our office, our employees, our brand, and most importantly our independence. But with Amazon’s support we’ll have the resources to bring you an even better Twitch.
Keep in mind Amazon owns several companies which they allow to do their own thing: Zappos, IMDB, Goodreads and Alexia.
Is this a positive or a negative for the future of Twitch.tv? Only time will tell.
