"Twitch are using similar technology to Facebook to block breaches mid-stream."

With Facebook copyright takedowns becoming the norm and DJs looking to alternative platforms, Twitch offered an easy solution. The service has obviously been swamped with DJs streaming their live sets with Twitch acting swiftly to close the door on non-copyrighted DJ mixes.

Currently the only legal way to stream online is to use Mixcloud Live or play your own material that you can prove you own the copyright for.
