It seems that video sharing giant, Youtube, is gearing up to expand it’s services with the possible acquisition of popular video game streaming service, Twitch.
According to a report made by Variety, Youtube may have struck a deal to acquire TwitchTV for $1 billion dollars. Their source says that once the agreement is final, an announcement will be made about it. It is though, according to the source, very early in the stage.
This really doesn’t come to much of a surprise as int he recent years Youtube has grown immensely popular with the gaming channels they offer.
