Sony and Twitch trotted out plenty of numbers since the PS4 launched with the streaming service, so it’s not surprising to see Microsoft start talking about 23 million minutes broadcast since last month’s launch, or how 30 percent of all Twitch broadcasts came from Xbox One on launch day. However, there is a catty little aside that’s worth a bit of scrutiny.
“In its first week, 108,000 unique Twitch users tried their hand at broadcasting from Xbox One,” reads Microsoft PR release, “accounting for 22 percent of Twitch’s unique broadcasters in the same period of time. To put that in perspective, according to Twitch, it took another console a month to achieve what the Twitch app on Xbox One did within its first week.”
