Mfarhanonline Social Media News: Facebook is chatting with Vevo — the music video-streaming giant and top YouTube channel — to take their relationship to the next level, according to one report. Facebook wants to exclusively host Vevo ‘s content and services. Facebook just integrated with Vevo in September, which now means Facebook users can connect to the Vevo platform and watch videos directly on the Facebook Timeline. CNET reports that this deal will pit Facebook against Google ‘s YouTube. Reports cite “sources with knowledge of the talks,” but warn these conversations, although recent, are still very preliminary. This Vevo adoption would be huge for Facebook. As it stands, Vevo is currently the top national entertainment- music web platform . In December 2011, the company projected there are more than 3.7 billion videos views a month globally. It would not only allow Facebook users to listen to music while uploading pictures, commenting on walls and messaging friends, but it would most likely create stiff competition in the web video world.
