It also has a Dustep catorgery unlike Myspace that just has Dub :lol:
Also, personally I think it looks and works a lot smoother than Myspace.

all you have to do is look through the backend to see the hundred perks that myspace doesn't offer.

- flash based, so the customization possibilities are endless. it does realtime previews of your customizing from the back end. if you're good enough at code, there are pages to insert your own manual codes

- you can add up to 15 songs I believe if you're a producer/label owner. You can add entire mixes. You can pick different accounts if you're an artist or label owner.

- modules, can be deactivated. Say you don't like movies, you can deactivate the movie module completely. You can also create modules

- nicknames, you can change the names of all modules to whatever you'd like

- You can view peoples' pages with their customization but if you find it too annoying there is an option to revert their page to virb default for easier reading

- You can link to your itunes and it will show the stream you're listening to. You can also create itunes playlists where the people who visit your page can pick one of your fav songs to listen to while they're there

- You can hook your flickr account, it'll create a flickr album in your photos section

- Bulletins are threads which people can reply to the original post and then reply to the replies also

etc etc etc... just have a look around really

myspace is to verb what PC is to mac: a pain in the ass 2 use, and with ugly, ugly graphics

but having said that, who's got time to maintain all these fckin sites? already wasting half my life just with website/myspace etc. dont really need anymore excuses not to do the shit the pays the rent, never mind produce

definately seems less of a headache to use than myspace...

colours are more office-friendly too... better for stealth-surfing

It Looks great but the player is rather faulty.
Does all sorts of wierd stuff
The other day I uploaded a tune and it pitched it down about 30 bpms???

It only a matter of time before we all get friend requests from shit Norwegian Thrash Metal Bands who use your comment box to advertise their new album.

Still prefer it to myspace tho

Day after day
I will walk and I will play
But the day after today
I will stop
And I will start my way
