Have facebook cracked live video, I think they may have created a compelling offering. Here in the UK we have a national radio station LBC using it to broadcast live interviews. Today we've had a EU referendum and they're currently doing a live feed as the results come in over the next 8hrs. Commenting seems to be engaging live and also works well viewing after the event, interlinking through the broadcast.

 

If you already like pages that use live feeds then facebook does a good job of making you aware of the most relevant broadcasts in your news feed. Discovery is lacking but I've not see any of the competition find a way of doing it well.

 

I wonder if it would be a good avenue for Twit to trial, probable not full broadcasts of programmes but maybe similar to LBC in switching on the live feed for maybe a 10-15min segment of a programme, planned out when an ad is in the middle.
