Twitch takes on YouTube, allows uploads of pre-recorded content
Twitch streamers previously archived their shows to YouTube, but many of them use the Twitch VOD format now, since it takes less time and is mostly done automatically. Now, users will be able to upload previously-recorded videos that didn’t originate on the site.
The new system is simply called Twitch upload and is still in beta. It basically allows anyone to upload edited videos of whatever, similar to YouTube, whatever the format. These uploads don’t have expiration dates, unlike stream archives.
For streamers, this also means they can download past broadcasts to edit and re-upload as new videos.
Twitch is already planning to add more features to the service, such as user chat and other similar options. You can opt into open beta now.

It still cannot outdo YouTube in terms traffic, since YouTube is where anyone goes to upload any type of content whereas Twitch is just video games.

I have stopped watching gaming videos on youtube. All the youtubers taling bullsiht and repeating themselves over and over again. Making fasle information and all clickbaits. I only watch motorvlogs and bmx viedos. They are more entertaining and fun to watch.
Well I hope twitch wont choose the same path like youtube did and twitch channels will make better content then those youtube idiots.
