"Twitch on Xbox One has played a big role in the increase in Xbox One usage since the app added broadcasting on March 10. In fact, nearly 23 million minutes have been broadcast from Twitch on Xbox One since launch. This includes more than 2.7 million minutes broadcast from Xbox One March 10-11, the most ever for a Twitch console app in its first day. Additionally, 30 percent of all Twitch unique broadcasters were broadcasting from Xbox One during the app’s first day."
Hmmm...in case there was any doubt...
"Google’s YouTube and Microsoft has a bad relationship over the years. Google declined to develop a app for YouTube on Windows and Windows Phone platforms and even revoked the developer API of YouTube app that Microsoft developed. Given the fact that Twitch is tightly integrated into Xbox One for now, the future remains a big question for this service on Xbox One."
