MySpace has launched MySpace Music Charts - a new global ranking of popular music content across all genres.
MySpace Music Charts Features:
- Artist, Song, Album, and Video Charts across all music genres.
- Unique charts for all territories.
- The ability for users to friend and connect with artists they discover in the charts
- A new “Movers” section that highlights fastest rising artists and content across the network.
- Artist contributed content which enables MySpace Music to feature the best content from all artists, both small and large.
- The ability for users to engage directly with the Chart content. Songs, albums, videos are available for free to stream for users in all territories.
A lot of musicians seem to either love or hate MySpace - and the new MySpace Music Charts probably aren't going to change that.
MySpace Music Charts provide a new way for musicians to get recognized and discovered - but they're also a new opportunity to find your band buried behind a thousand other Internet musicians.
What do you think? Are social networking sites, like MySpace, becoming more important as a way to get discovered?
