Myspace and Copyright Infringement
Myspace is indeed a cesspool of copyright infringement, of all the cases of infringement of my own work I track, Myspace now makes up almost half of all cases.

However, it's not music or video that needs to fear the Myspace beast. Ironically most illegal audio or video that comes into the service is from third-party providers.

Rather, the copyright issues I see on Myspae relate to textual works, especially poetry and other short works, and images, including backgrounds, icons, and even personal photos.

Granted, in a political sense, these are much smaller worries, but they are still annoying to common Webmasters and other Myspace members.

Sadly, it seems Myspace is a very fake place and much of that translates into lifting material.
