Unlike past years, where the show aired on YouTube and Twitch, this year Geoff Keiley’s Game Awards will broadcast via Amazon Prime Video and Twitch. But don’t worry, it will still be free to watch for all. However, I will point out that Amazon owns Twitch.

That’s no different with the Bose QuietComfort Ultra (2nd Gen) over-ear headphones. These are still likely the pair of headphones you want if you’re looking for superior ANC.
