The people who have stopped using MySpace aren't coming back...not even if you paid them. And the people who are still using it don't make the best demo to sell advertisers on. Although, there is still some value in that. They're probably better off on focusing what they have salvaged in the way of band profiles and let facebook have the personals...

Wrong wrong wrong... people who never shop for alternatives even when the brand they are using sucks are GREAT to have as customers.

Ask anybody at Microsoft.

Let me guess...of the 400 employees being laid off, none are family members of bigwigs, or the bigwigs themselves. Amirite?

@BoonsFarmersDaughter: No. All 800 of those were retained.

How and why in the world did MySpace have over 400 employees to begin with? The platform hasn't changed in 3 years.
