MySpace Hosts Fox Television Programming

Let me start by saying I don’t get MySpace. Maybe I’m too old or maybe I’m just antisocial, but I haven’t found a use for it (other than the requisite ‘keeping-tabs-on-exes’). In fact, seeing some of the stuff (risqué photos, confidential work details, etc) a few younger coworkers have publicly revealed alarms me. Despite me apparently being out of touch, there’s no denying MySpace has huge traffic and is a premiere web destination. Unlike other recent tv-on-web experiments, this one actually has a chance of gaining traction given the stickiness of MySpace — IF Fox moves off their custom player and embeds video directly into Windows Media Player or Flash. Though that would make protecting content and force feeding ads a bit more tricky…
