Thanks for the Hollywood Reporter article. As someone totally outside the business, I've found MySpace's current search capabilities worse than anything I've seen on the Web for a decade, so they'd better partner with someone on it.

Great article. I agree about the search on myspace.

They also need to buy a bunch more servers and backup generators. The system has been down or slow for over a week. At a million dollars a day in ad revenue, one would think they have a few bucks to ensure that pages will serve.
