Notification For Past Streams About To Be Deleted
I'd like to know when my past streams are about to be deleted so that I can watch them with my friends one last time before they're gone forever. It's not fun when something good that you did that was recorded is just deleted forever like that.

The lifespans of VODs differ between channels. One channel's vod may be 2-3 months, another 1 month, other being 29 days, or some having just 2 weeks. Best if each VOD on all channels has a deletion counter (how many days or hours before it is deleted). Can this be done? Thanks

On the cusp of my Amazon Prime membership running out, I re-upped my subscription. In the meantime, apparently Twitch IMMEDIATELY acted upon this potential loss of Prime and removed every single one of my VODs before I could upload them all elsewhere. I would like to have them all restored, as I still have my Prime membership. I received no warning, nor any other indicator that I would lose all of my VODs.
Here's a recommendation: GIVE A WARNING AND NOTIFICATION! Send a notice to the owner of the account with the VODs tied to their channel. Let them know their VOD will no longer be available due to Prime running out. Don't just remove the content they work so hard to create without notice!

I wish there was some kind of reminder, such as by email, reminding me to download my past broadcasts before they expire*. I wanted to save all my streams, but unfortunately too much time had passed since the last time I downloaded them and missed out on saving a number of streams. Very upsetting, though I understand it is my own fault.
*perhaps with a customizable setting allowing you to choose when you will get the reminder, such as two days, three days, a week, etc. before the video expires
