restreams
Relays another's broadcast
Restreams are simultaneous broadcasts of the same content across multiple streaming platforms.
A gamer might restream their Twitch feed to YouTube and Facebook simultaneously, reaching audiences on each platform.
The practice raises copyright issues when someone restreams content they don't own: He got banned for restreaming the pay-per-view fight.
