Comment on Twitch Will Shut Down Its Streaming Platform in South Korea
superduperenigma@lemmy.world 9 months agoHow is remaining in an unprofitable market a “loss leader”?
Sometimes you gotta take a small loss for the overall benefit of the company/system.
You really don’t think Twitch did some analysis on this matter before making a decision? Or do you just figure that your uninformed assumptions about their financials are more accurate than their internal analysis?

Negative press costs money too. There will be unforeseen costs related to this move.

They're leaving the market. If anything Amazon is putting a shot across the bow of the ISPs who are charging these interconnect fees to get THEM negative press and make the Korean public demand a change in the laws so they can get the Internet the pay for.
