Im not sure whether this thread will get shutdown or not.

Does anyone use My Space to promote their music?

Have you seen any benefits from it?

What do you think of it?

My space music is brilliant.

Other bands seem to make bonds and do advertising for each other. I think it's brilliant.

I like that it encourages community as opposed to bands being competitive as well

I've been wondering this also. I'm thinking about grabbing one, but I don't know if it'd be worth the time.

I would advise to anyone thinking of putting anything on there to read the terms and conditions VERY carefully, because those ARE legally binding.

i use myspace MAINLY to find out about bands...i love it cause you find out about gigs first usually...which is handy smile

and i've found loads of cool bands through it that have looked at my music tastes and decided to see if i would like them...which i think is really cool...cause i lvoe finding new bands smile

i also know for a fact it has helped a local band in the area (Bady Cole) cause they can tell people about gigs, so they get more people there smile

well once you put it on there and agree to the liscence they own the rights to that song... take it off and they still do.

also, there's another part saying they can change the licence after you've agree'd to it..

So hang on. They are saying when you put your music on their website they can make a band and play your music claiming its theirs?

no, they cant claim it's theirs, they just own the rights to it... so they can make a band and play it without having to pay you royalties etc.
