I expect there to be a variety of revenue options available, the most obvious being:

- Subscription
- Advertisement supported with no subscription
- Advertisement supported with a lower level subscription
- Pay per view

Given that, there is room for a variety of streamers to appear over time.

Clearly, they will not all be able to go subscription only because people cannot keep shelling out for more and more services.
