MySpace recently now announced an exciting project: its own digital music portal competing with current market leaders iTunes and Amazon.com’s MP3 store. They are currently negotiating with major record companies such as Warner Music, Sony, and Universal. According to reports, the pricing is “going to be very competitive.” Also, many of the music downloads will come without any digital rights management technology, so that the users will be free to copy and use the music on any device.

This venture is almost certain to succeed since MySpace is the most popular social networking site among the huge and important demographic of North American teens, and has over 110 million registered users, 30 million of which regularly use the site’s built-in music features.

The internet now links an astonishing 20 percent of the world’s six billion people; in most Western nations at least half the population use the world wide web, according to Internet World Stats.  An explosion in social networking websites and technology means that increasingly, these people have many opportunities to get in touch with each other.

‘Social networking’ describes the plethora of web-based applications like Facebook, MySpace, YouTube and Digg, boasting large online communities of people with shared interests.  These sites usually allow members to build a profile, in the form of a web page where you display information about yourself, your interests and your activities.

The internet is one big popularity contest. Getting on the front page of a social bookmarking site such as Digg, Del.ici.ous, Stumble Upon, or Reddit turns into page views. Page views turn into clicks. Clicks translate into revenue.

Only those who are on your friends list can see your full profile which means that you still have your privacy in this site.
