MySpace Gone Wrong
According to Techcrunch, MySpace will announce today that they’re teaming up with Gracenote to help detect and block copyrighted music from being posted on member pages. Sounds like a good idea?
Well, there are three million bands on MySpace. I’d guess that most of them hold the copyright to their songs. What happens now? Do the bands lose the ability to post their own material? Or will they be able to ‘claim’ songs as their own, after no-doubt following a protracted verification procedure? Either way, watch MySpace utilisation fall.
