New program requires monetizing DJs to pay fees, while offering subsidies and new streaming category.

  • Twitch's new partnership with major record labels mandates fees from DJs who monetize their streams.
  • The platform and DJs will split the cost, with Twitch initially covering more than half.
  • A one-year subsidy will help select DJs transition to the new system.
  • Non-monetizing DJs can continue streaming without paying fees.
  • The initiative aims to address copyright issues and prevent DMCA takedowns.
