I guess I would prefer Ning if I paid for it, but Flux is the definite choice for a free social network with everything you could want.

Most of their monthly traffic comes from thisis50.com who they demoted after he signed a deal with KYTE. Even so, that site has over 325,000 members who are on it all day and all night driving the comscore. Ning is a vacant shell hoping for a buy out offer.

But, for bands like us, it is a great platform to reach music fans who are already community members of one or more of the Flux sites (MTV Soundtrack, The Wallflowers, Sheryl Crow, etc.) Once fans are members of one community, it only takes a couple of clicks to join another community. Good luck Flux. Flux could be a little more elegeantly designed, and it can be a little buggy (e.g. photos don’t always render qucikly/properly) – hope MTV money solves these little issues.
