One of the lesser-known benefits of the Prime subscription service is what's referred to as 'Twitch Prime' which eliminates advertisements when watching streams and provides a free channel subscription each month. It'll now also offer something extra for those with NBA 2K17. Beginning Tuesday, April 25 those with Prime will receive 75,000 VC and a M...
