If you used Facebook to record your live streams, you probably made a mistake. "Facebook will start deleting users' live broadcast recordings after 30 days starting on February 19th. Users who go live after that date must download the videos to save them from getting deleted." You can, at least, download them, but any audience and comments that they generated on Facebook will be gone. Again - don't depend on a proprietary platform for anything important. Via Apostolos K.
