It's a Rupert Murdoch-owned internet community where all the DIY-types and punks (as well as many other people-types) have set up websites for their bands, affinity groups, and friend-networks. The whole thing's a crock; it seems real grassroots and stripped-down, but actually when you put ANYTHING on MySpace it becomes property of the self-proclaimed "billionaire tyrant" Murdoch. See the terms of use agreement. This sucks for bands that've placed their music on the site.

I guess "myspace" sounds better than "HisSpace" or "Rupespace".
