 Andrew, I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who doesn't see much use for 
MySpace.  I've not 'gotten' it since the hype started, and it looks to me that 
bands have very little leeway when it comes to setting up your webpage.  I 
guess it's good if you're just surfing around for music and only want to go to 
one format or domain, but otherwise ... bleh.  Thanks for some honest comments.
April

MySpace - I set up a page for the Taybacks about a month ago.  Meh.

Quite honestly, I think MySpace is worthless.  It reached critical mass
a year ago, and now every musician in the universe HAS to have a MySpace
site.  So then, what's it worth?  Not a whole hell of a lot.
Although every teenybopper in the universe seems to love it, the site
REALLY sucks.  HARD.  I'm sure it's the wasp's nipples if you're 13 and
want to talk nasty with your friends and put up Disturbed songs that
auto-play everytime one of your little hoodlum friends clicks on your
site.  
But it's among the worst website interfaces I've ever used, the whole
"friends" thing is just total BS, and compared to the Venerable Olde
Mp3.com... well, it just doesn't compare at all.  YMMV.
