I'm not saying the webservice is going to be shut down today, tomorrow or
next month. However, you may want to check on other means of getting your
bands noticed.

Some quotes from the article:

"We've been clear that MySpace is a problem," [News
Corp<http://gawker.com/tag/newscorp/>.
COO Chase] Carey told Wall Street analysts in an earnings call. "The current
losses are not acceptable or sustainable."

He says he's optimistic about MySpace's new focus on social entertainment.

But with traffic numbers that "are not going in the right direction," Carey
wants to see "a clear path to profitability" on a timetable measured "in
quarters, not in years."


Now if Google would just hurry up and select Raleigh, Durham or Chapel Hill
as the new high-speed network town, we could build and host our own music
ibiblio site.



Cheers,
