Same thing happened to mp3.com. There were some really great bands there and when they deleted all their stuff I found myself unable to find their music anymore. Well, actually, I found just one band out of perhaps the 20 I really liked, but still, I think it was a great loss and a great disservice to people, not to mention lack of judgement.

Well, it was Theirspace, not Yourspace.

Also, Tom hasn't been your friend since 2010.

Tom is no one's friend.

Back in early 2006, I put up a Myspace music fan page for Peter Paul Pigmans, better known as Dutch Gabber music producer 3 Steps Ahead, as he had passed away a couple years earlier and I wanted to extend the reach of his relatively unknown music with American audiences. It quickly racked up 1500 or so fans and I was getting inundated with messages from people not realizing he was dead asking me to play their show/venue/festival. I reached out to his widow about getting the official okay to be hosting some of his music on the page, but she never responded. I think I stopped maintaining it in 2009, around the time I migrated to Facebook.

it might be a publicity thing so people might, you know, think MySpace still exists.

Holy crap. I vaguely remember unfriending Tom. Do I have a myspace account?
