Game engines are excellent 3d environments, pleasant to look at, and so forth. Are you renting that environment to show it to other people, did you get it for free? Even if you paid to own a copy of your favorite song, you can't stream that song for free (or for profit) to millions (or dosens) of other people. Why can you stream a game, even the one you paid for, without giving daddy a cut?
And again, my rationale mostly centers on how excellent some game engines are, how marvelous it is to look at them. So charging streamers for displaying it to an audience seems reasonable, especially if reasonably priced.
