If only Amazon had enough money to keep these employees. Like maybe some extra revenue from ads added onto Prime Video or something.

Lol, they just jacked up the amount of ads on twitch itself.

All they had to do was not spunk half a billion on the LOTR show, and they'd have enough money to keep them enjoyed at above market rate for a decade...
