Streaming Program Opinions???
12 years ago
I don't usually get many watchers, and my computer is a slow dinosaur, so generally Join.Me works just fine.
However, as of tonight, I'd like to start doing more regular streaming sessions with low priced art for sale(mostly sketchy/headshot stuff), at least until I get a normal job. I plan on advertising not only on FA(as I have in the past), but also on my three active tumblrs and perhaps even DA(where I have a small following due to drawing some fanart).
There is a chance of actually getting 10+ people in stream at once(I doubt it, but yeah, a chance!), and livestream/procaster is just too taxing on my computer for me to actually do any art while it is running. Especially if I have my browser running.
I am looking into Xsplit, but it says I am not allowed to gain revenue on a free account and I don't want to break the rule, but I just don't have the money for it at the moment(that happens with not having a job for 2+ months).
I'd love to hear what people think, both as artists who might use streaming programs themselves and as potential customers. I want everyone to feel welcome and not be unable or unwilling to join just because of a program I choose to use.

OP
Join.me is what I use and what I prefer. So easy and simple. And I'm not actually that popular so only 10 watchers is normally fine for me.
