移动视频直播成为移动互联网当下最热门的应用，在中国、美国市场，一大批公司争相涌入这一市场，竞争十分激烈。其中在中国，出现了直播公司争抢网络红人的现象。
在美国，Facebook也准备采取名人明星战略。最近已经花费了5000万美元（约合人民币3.3亿元），邀请明星和传统权威媒体提供网络直播服务。
据美国科技新闻网站Engadget报道，目前在美国视频直播市场，也出现了Facebook、亚马逊、YouTube、Twitter等多家竞争的局面，雅虎旗下的Tumblr也推出了类似服务。
抢夺网络直播的内容资源，成为竞争策略之一。据美国《华尔街日报》报道，Facebook最近花费5000万美元，签署了140多个合约，主要内容是邀请传统知名媒体和名人明星做直播。
Facebook签约的名人明星包括Kevin Hart、Gordon Ramsay、Deepak Chopra和Russell Wilson等。
Facebook签约的权威媒体则包括了CNN、《纽约时报》、Vox传媒、Tastemade、Mashable、赫芬顿邮报网站等。
其中，纯数字媒体BuzzFeed获得的合同最丰厚，价值305万美元，提供直播的时间是从今年三月份到明年三月份。《纽约时报》也获得了303万美元。
虽然视频直播平台大肆涌现，但是如果希望获得可观的直播观众或后续视频点播人数，直播机构的质量和内容独家性成为重要因素。Facebook大规模签约，也旨在提前抢占高质量直播内容的来源。
据报道，Facebook在直播机构方面的投资已经起到了成效。比如BuzzFeed媒体的两位人士，将橡皮带子捆缚在一个西瓜周围，直到西瓜最终爆裂的直播（长度为45分钟），一天之内获得了1080万次观看量。
不过Facebook直播观看的最高纪录，归属一个名叫Candace Payne的德克萨斯州妇人，在直播中她给网友介绍自己新购买的星球大战角色的面具，其中面具发出了奇怪的声音，这位妇人大笑不止。这段四分钟的视频，观看人数已经达到了1.57亿人。
值得一提的是，当年在社交网络的竞争中，Facebook和Twitter也曾经实施明星名人战略，纷纷邀请明星入驻发布最新动态，让网民关注偶像。不过在明星扎堆方面，作为一对多信息广播平台的Twitter仍然具有一定的优势。
