I think it makes sense. Corporate media is so forced and artificial, and people are so lacking in human connection due to isolation under capitalism, so naturally people will gravitate towards more "genuine" forms of entertainment (I know streamers hardly act like genuine people, but it's more genuine than the Joss Whedonified Avengers Quippy style that pretty much every tv show and movie has these days.)
