Even a year ago, I'd agree with you. However, Soundcloud and others have really eaten into Myspace's indie music positioning. news corp could have merged Myspace with their other entertainment offerings. Every show of theirs would have a myspace page, and the visual editing operations become more corporate-friendly. Monetize by offering advanced analytics and moderation capabilities to make it another public presence for your entertainment property, from the independent band to The Simpsons. Provide a host of consultants to get the most from your social media. It could be done still, but News Corp would have provided a bigger appeal.
