evansorchid	Date: December 17, 2006 @ 3:12 PM What a shock.... I never even noticed.
DrowningBetty	Date: December 17, 2006 @ 10:01 PM i like Tagworld though, seems a cleaner place than MySpace
JDFreeSoul	Date: January 5, 2007 @ 9:32 PM I agree MySpace is totally homo.
wailingmiserere	Date: January 5, 2007 @ 10:23 PM If you are sick of MySpace, then try Last.fm. It's a good site for getting into new music, and it's especially fun if you download the scrobbling software, which keeps track of all the music you've been listening to. This is my Last.fm page
AceHenshawIII	Date: January 5, 2007 @ 10:35 PM wonder how many people saying myspace stinks have a myspace of their own, they just are affraid to admit it hehehehehahaha! i admit i have one! ok i said it! its the only way i've managed to find all those olde friends i lost.
ShadowMom	Date: January 6, 2007 @ 12:53 AM I bet Bill does... I know Crystal does. Fess up!
Tattoomom	Date: January 6, 2007 @ 11:00 AM Hell yeah I have one! It's my passive-aggressive way to throw salt in the wounds of...oh wait nevermind...I've said too much!

ChillinBuzz	Date: January 7, 2007 @ 12:42 AM talk to rh, he might shed some light on scrobbling MySpace is gh3y... and i don't have an artist page there called www.myspace.com/chillinbuzz
JDFreeSoul	Date: January 7, 2007 @ 1:28 AM Ok I really truly don't have one... seriously... and I feel so lonely as a dontwannabeamyspacer.
PrincessTast...	Date: January 8, 2007 @ 10:15 AM No matter how you slice it, MySpace sucks and probably always will.
cantillon	Date: January 19, 2007 @ 6:49 AM Dear Aunty Bill, I'm there, and I hate it. Guess that says I have some "issues", as no one forced me. Does it mean I could be a closet hommer ? Your sincerely, Concerned of PS does my concern also make me a homophobe ?
ChillinBuzz	Date: January 19, 2007 @ 2:35 PM Well, if I'm a batty boy for myspacing, then I've been getting boys and girls mixed up since I was a teenager
ChillinBuzz	Date: January 19, 2007 @ 2:36 PM In the sexually active kind of mix up, before someone points out I was gh3y before I reached my teens
leflaw	Date: January 20, 2007 @ 7:24 AM Batty boy, like Johnny Battis?

ChillinBuzz	Date: January 21, 2007 @ 11:14 AM Loose change for what?
ChillinBuzz	Date: January 21, 2007 @ 11:15 AM I dunno Lef, is Johnny Battis gh3y?

pog	Date: January 21, 2007 @ 11:56 AM funny... wiki is more comprehensive than a dictionary. That's amazing. Imagine working your whole life on a dictionary only to be overtaken in a few short years.
vladb	Date: January 22, 2007 @ 7:33 AM Myspace may be gay but it was through it that I got me record deal, arranged all of my gigs around the country and met many, many likeminded and interesting people who introduced me a sounds from all over the world as well as helped me develop my own music. For some one like my self who works on the fringes of what people would call music myspace is a wonderful tool as it is a place for people to come together for a bit of shameless self promotion and to find out what else is out there. Dmusic will always be my first love but the quota of abstract left field noise is not that great, and if it is here it is not that easy to stumble across and it is in this area that myspace works well. Or at least I think so. Sorry to rant, but it seems that myspace bashing is the done thing. Yes its more corporate than bill gates ivory cheques book(?) but it does the job, and any corporate body that helps a ginger welshman making 12 minutes drones sell the number of records I have has to be given at least a bit of credit.
8111	Date: February 28, 2007 @ 10:16 AM I was just bitching cuz we've been stuck with dial up 'till now Dmusic Me Murmuur
shadowself	Date: February 28, 2007 @ 1:33 PM The thought has crossed my mind to start a (100% bling-free) MySpace page for my Chronic Skronski character who seems to have developed a following in Second Life. Maybe put some live recordings up or something. As a 36-year-old male, there is no way in hell I would create a personal MySpace page, however. But the Chronic one might get me some more listeners which = more money which = closer to getting that Chapman Stick. I'm torn.
Kalos	Date: February 28, 2007 @ 3:02 PM I opened a myspace a couple of days ago, but I became busy before I could really make it my own. Besides webpages can't have sexual orientations.
8111	Date: February 28, 2007 @ 3:45 PM oh,sure they can
psypig	Date: March 1, 2007 @ 4:36 AM Dmusic is cool for certain things but not for others. For example, number of gigs my band has arranged this year through Dmusic - 0. Number arranged through Myspace - All but 2 so far (out of the 8 currently booked) If I want a great community of musicians to interact with I'll come to Dmusic. If I want massive exposure and potential gigs I'll go to myspace.
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: March 1, 2007 @ 7:47 AM it´s strange to see how Myspace can be a good place to promote one´s self, it is a very restricting website, (4 uploads under 6mb each only, which are downsampled to sound like crap, ridiculous amounts of banner ads, many of which link to adware sites, etc). But for those willing to really promote themselves (you don´t just 'stumble' upon an artist´s page from the many millions available) it can't be denied that it's an effective tool. It´s all because it became a "buzz" site for a little while which everyone was signing up for and got hyped up to be more than it is. COnsequently every man and his dog signed up for Myspace. Still, just setting up a Myspace account in itself and sitting back and waiting won´t induce any action either, those who have had success have had to take their music to the contacts, mass emailings, massive interaction with appropriate contacts etc. Really, there´s no good reason why Dmusic can´t be as good as (with shoutbox and dnotes, plus space for gigs, much greater upload potential etc), except Dmusic just never has quite caught that ´buzz´and 'hype' - which is a pity, because as a musical vehicle ANYTHING should be better than Myspace, PureVolume, SOundclick, ArtistLaunch as well as Dmusic. I guess the fact that there are so many similar sites works against them, whereas Myspace only really has Facebook as a major rival....
Jazzmary2U	Date: March 1, 2007 @ 11:10 PM It's here, it's queer, it's BIG, get used to it!
Jazzmary2U	Date: March 1, 2007 @ 11:11 PM I still like dmusic best, tho.. no ads for the money, music store, streaming songs that play as you surf the site and post shouts.. very
GeneHilbert	Date: March 1, 2007 @ 11:15 PM Indeed........
Orion	Date: March 2, 2007 @ 4:10 AM DMusic! Myspace sucks!!!!!
