Its like how Nintendo cracked down hard on streaming a while ago with more ad sense/content ID stuff so fewer people played their games on streams and videos. If that had applied to everyone equally then no one is necessarily at a disadvantage?

The streamers as a whole are at a disadvantage. By introducing a pay gate to everything, they're disincentivised from streaming altogether because they're being forced to pay a superfluous additional fee that makes their hobby more expensive.

Like I'm not even talking about people who consider streaming their job - people stream for fun, too. That fee would kill off streaming as a hobby, which it always fundamentally has been - no-one in their right mind is going to start from scratch, paying for streaming licenses to enter a highly competitive entertainment market for fun. It would effectively act as a barrier of entry, which imo would ultimately cause streaming as a source of entertainment to stagnate.
