So #1, is competition is good. Three companies in a market isn't historically enough to actually drive competition. Five years ago T-Mobile was the #4 US Wireless carrier, now they're #3 and have driven AT&T and Verizon to go back to unlimited data offerings which were on the verge of disappearing, and they're on the verge of buying Sprint, it's a pretty huge recovery for a carrier near death. I watch a bit of Twitch, a lot of YouTube, and never watch any Mixer, and that being said, it was remarkably easy to get streaming on Mixer since the software is integrated into the X-Box Game Bar on Windows 10. If you already have a following, it doesn't even matter in the slightest, your users will follow you wherever. If you don't, discoverability is your biggest concern and for that I'd bet YouTube is more likely to drop your archived stream into people's recommended section if it's similar to other things you've watched, and on Mixer you'll never get seen until there's a critical mass of content and viewers there. And then there's the corporate overlord of the platform, would you rather support Google, Amazon, or Microsoft with your business? I'm sure for most it's irrelevant, but maybe you have an ethical issue with one or more of them. Also, remember when Facebook Live was in the news for their streaming? I guess that's not relevant anymore. Zucks for them.

I'm here to ask for a video request. Yes it's outside the norm for Linus, but I'd ask that Linus follow up on Paul and Jayz to comment on Lyle's computer build parody getting struck down by The Verge. Even if maybe they just discuss it on the WAN Show that would be okay too, but it needs to be mentioned in the title. Please Linus, see it to your heart that this is important.

As a PC gamer, I thought Vista was great, but I had fairly new hardware, and all my drivers were solid since I ran mainstream hardware.
