I tried using WEB service "Restream.io" which can deliver live at the same time on multiple platforms such as YouTube and Twitch for free



Many people who are live delivering games live and chat live have live delivery channels on multiple platforms, such as YouTube Live and Twitch. Many people record live streams on one platform and upload them as videos to another platform later. Regardless of changing the distribution contents on each platform, in the case of live distribution in which the contents do not change for each platform, although it is thought that "it would be convenient if it could be delivered simultaneously on multiple platforms ..." I wonder if there are many people who have abandoned the means. WEB service which can answer such demand, broadcast live distribution simultaneously on multiple platforms "Restream.ioI actually tried using it.
