Facebook to invest $1Bn in original TV content

Facebook is looking to shell out a whopping $1 billion to become a major hub for videos, a media report said on Saturday.

The 
social media giant is willing to spend as much as $1 billion to cultivate original shows for its platform, according to people familiar with the matter. The figure, which could fluctuate based on the success of Facebook's' programming, covers potential spending through 2018, The Wall Street Journal report said.

The 
figure is less than what rivals have invested in the segment. Netflix spent $6 billion in 2017 and Amazon shelled out $4.5 billion.

The company has improved its strategy for video 
contentincluding cutting deals for digital TV shows. Earlier this month, Facebook rolled out a redesigned video platform for creators and publishers called "Watch" in the United States.

Facebook is offering a range of different options for discovering video contentincluding programmes and sections like "Today's Spotlight", "New This Week", "Popular Now", "What Friends Are Watching", "Most Talked About", "Suggested For You", and a special "10 Minutes Or More" spot forlong-form videos.

For now, 
Facebook is primarily highlighting reality shows, which partners are producing en masse since they are cheap, don't require set scriptsand can be watched piecemeal, the report said.

The 
social media giant debuted with Business Insider's lifestyle shows -- "The Great Cheese Hunt" and "It's Cool, But Does It Really Work?". News and issues publisher Attn premiered "We Need to Talk" and "Health Hacks" starring Jessica Alba last week.

Meanwhile, food video 
giant Tastemade debuted with four showsincluding "Safe Deposit", "Struggle Meals", "Food to Die For" and "Kitchen Little".
