Facebook Plans to Let Creators, Musicians Charge For Livestream Access
Facebook has announced sweeping changes to its Facebook Live platform, including plans to let artists charge for entry to concert livestreams.
In an announcement titled “Introducing Messenger Rooms and more ways to connect when you’re apart,” the company says, “To support creators and small businesses, we plan to add the ability for Pages to charge for access to events with Live videos on Facebook – anything from online performances to classes to professional conferences.”
The company also announced that it will be expanding its “Stars” tipping system to musicians — in it, a performer can receive “tips” when users send them a “Star,” although with a $.01 tip per star, a market run will require a whole lot of “Stars.”
