As someone who works at a music series, I'm actually pretty glad myspace is
there, because it allows musicians and bands to have a rudimentary 'website'
and 'demo tape' online. That's pretty useful to me. Much better than trying
to solicit a bio from musicians, and then determine from that whether
they're fit for the music series.

Sure, sites other than myspace can do the same thing, so if all the
tools/features/connection speeds are there I don't see a reason why myspace
is particularly better.

However, you could argue that all the folks on myspace are putting out fewer
demo cd-r's - less pollution.
