WHAT IS STREAMING AND WHO IS A STREAMER?

Basically to stream on the internet means listening to music or watching a video, instead of downloading it to your device to watch it later.

Streaming has grown so large that it has a branch for gamers and game developers. As new technologies emerge, a new source of income and carrier opportunities emerges as well. There is a new workforce of gamers out here called "STREAMERS" these guys broadcast themselves in real time while playing video games and they earn good returns from their actions.

While these guys might be new to you they have actually been around for some time and have managed to build a whole new industry for themselves. Video game live streaming became popular in the mid-2010s on sites like Twitch and YouTube, according to statistics by statista over six hundred and fifty million people tuned to video game streaming in 2017, the number is expected to hit seven hundred and forty million people by 2019, the gaming video content revenue worldwide in 2016 reached 4.4 billion U.S dollars and it's projected to increase in the years to come.
