Better Recognition for the Streaming Staff

I am totally of Art's mind in this -- if those watching a streaming match aren't willing to pay a paltry $1 or $2 for the service, then I, as a streamer, would have to ask myself why I am wasting my time on this? It's not as though these people watching the BG streams are suffering from a paralyzing vitamin deficiency or some sort of basic literacy deficit that the streaming is providing them so that they can participate in the world of social commerce. (In other words, BG spectators shouldn't be among the top candidates for charity aid in anyone's book).
The simple challenge might be to set up the streaming portal in a way that makes a small 'micro-payment' super easy to donate. A Paypal button along the lines of "Give what you like but you must give something" with a default value of $2 or whatever. And then a post-match 'ask' that suggests a top-off payment if the event was particularly engaging.
