This post on Hypebot made us snort tea all over our keyboard, so we wanted to share it with you. It’s from one of the blog’s readers, explaining why indie bands aren’t boycotting their MySpace profiles in protest at their lack of representation on the just-launched MySpace Music site:
“i’ve had sex with girls i didn’t like. it’s not that wrong to update your myspace and still be unhappy with the operation. it may seem like a passive aggressive approach, but sometimes people keep a profile active in a service to continue promoting their band…regardless of how self serving the platform has become. it’s hard to deny the strong presence of myspace….it reminds me of ex-girlfriends i had that were so hot i couldn’t stop sleeping with them even after i broke up with them because they were so scandalous. it was hard to leave.”
That’s certainly one way of putting it…
