The US version of the show, which airs on Fox, has over 200 episodes making it a gold mine for Twitch streamers who are looking for easy content to cash in on, in lieu of creating original content. The popular American version of the show headed by famed chef Gordon Ramsey originally debuted in 2010 and has run eleven seasons so far, with its twelfth season set for 2022.

The first version of MasterChef was created for the BBC in 1990. Why the MasterChef Twitch meta is destined to fail While the 'react meta' has been around for a while now, whereby Twitch streamers watch videos with their audience, the Twitch community seems particularly taken with Ramsey's cooking show of late.īut given the emphasis on copyright for Twitch in the past year, with many streamers having been forced to delete old VODs with copyrighted music, is the MasterChef meta sustainable? Unless streamers are getting approval from the copyright holders ahead of time, chances are DMCA claims will eventually be filed against MasterChef streamers, bringing the meta to an end. 'React style' content about Master Chef has been driven by some of the largest streamers on the platform, including xQc, Mizkif, Pokimane, and more. Despite the apparent copyright violation, Twitch has been lax about banning this content, leading to an explosion of MasterChef streams. He currently has 2.19 million YouTube subscribers, with more on the way from the rest of his Twitch fanbase.Original Article: While Ludwig Ahgren is over on YouTube, receiving automated content ID bans over a few moments of playing Baby Shark, Twitch has recently been dominated by the 'Master Chef meta' where popular streamers like xQc have been spending a significant amount of their stream time watching episodes of Gordon Ramsey's popular American adaptation of Master Chef and 'reacting' to them in front of hundreds of thousands of viewers. Ludwig’s mistakes are likely to be noticed as he gets to know his new streaming hub.

To mitigate the impact of the DMCA, YouTube began informing creators if their videos contained copyrighted material before they were published. YouTube, like Twitch, has a three-strike policy: three copyright violations and you’ll be permanently banned. Twitch launched a tool that makes it easier to delete old videos with copyrighted music earlier this year, and then issued a wave of copyright strikes in response to DMCA complaints. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act, or DMCA, has caused problems across all video sharing and live streaming platforms, with creators’ videos being taken down and demonetized without their knowledge. Ludwig addressed the incident in a video on his secondary channel, interpreting the warning as a ban and claiming that the corporate overlords who own Baby Shark “have, like, an iron fist on YouTube, and so they took me down.” YouTube has contacted Ludwig to explain the platform’s copyright policies, and Ludwig plans to go live again today, according to Verrusio. The whole incident was just a case of confusion, and Ludwig could have continued the livestream just fine if he had just stopped playing the copyrighted material and explained that he wasn’t sure what he was seeing on the backend and thought it was a suspension. Ludwig was not hit with a copyright strike or suspension and also he was not suspended, according to Lauren Verrusio, YouTube’s head of creator and consumer communications and that their Content ID tool was picked up while he was playing an unlicensed video while he was going live to his fans. Ludwig’s stream was suspended after, giving the impression to his viewers and to himself that he had been banned for violating YouTube’s copyright policies.

According to Kotaku, during his stream, Ahgren was playing other YouTube videos when he came across the infamously catchy Baby Shark song. Ludwig Ahgren was hit with what he thought was a suspension from YouTube just three days after leaving his massive Twitch following.
