I think the concept of (optional) subscriptions funding Twitch streamers is an excellent replacement for ads however if you are considering making a living off Twitch you should be aware of the politics. There is a culture of banning streamers (sometimes indefinitely, but rarely upon first ban) for violations in their extremely vauge TOS. Usually no reason is given and there are major inconsistencies between some streamers' moderation and others.
