Music-centric social networking service MySpace has been accused of stealing music from its artists without the permission of their music agency. The copyright skirmish comes less than a week after the social network
relaunched back on to the market with a new look and a continued focus on music
sharing, providing a space for mainstream and up-and-coming artists to market
themselves.
An U.K. based agency that represents many independent record labels, says Myspace is using the music of its artists without permission. The group used to have a deal with the old MySpace and its MySpace Music service, but the agreement expired over a year ago, and now the social network seems to be stealing all this music . . . terrible news!
