I rarely want to schedule something as recurring. My professional and personal life does not allow me to allot time to streaming like that. I also have a bit of variety of content I work with between games and music. It would be better to have more variety to the stream titles.

This recurring schedule only is very restrictive and pointless. Every account should be able to schedule a calendar of non-recurring streams, having recurring events be an additional option, not the only one. This company is owned by Amazon, and data is not that expensive for AWS.

I've read that affiliates have the ability to schedule non-recurring streams. That makes even less sense, if the site can function that way, but limits it to some elite status.

I just end up not using the schedule at all for most of my streams, or relying on extensions that are not as fully integrated. It just degrades the viewers experience with non-affiliate channels and encourages people like me to stream more on other platforms.
