"The ability to broadcast from mobile platforms is sort of a next-generation broadcasting technology that we're working on right now, which also has the potential to change, fundamentally, the business," he said. "Simply because mobile gaming is nearly ubiquitous, at least in the US. So that'll be an exciting thing, to see how that fits into the ecosystem.

"When we launched, the genesis of Twitch was very PC-gamer centric," DiPietro explained. "eSports was a big part of the genesis of Twitch, League of Legends, Starcraft 2, World of Warcraft, Dota 2, those kinds of games.
