You are way too old.

MySpace has the big advantage of being a platform that is being used by
Bands (and, I believe, labels) to pre-release a lot of stuff. Records of
new bands, today, are often only after you have made sure the band is
already popular enough to score a hit on the charts. Until then you use
MySpace as a teaser and do gigs.

Example: The Ting Tings early this year had a #1 hit in the US and the
UK, that same stuff (actually half of the album) had been on MySpace
since Summer last year.

So: yes, I would also rate that the most important addition to the
services...
