I’d love see Myspace Music actually innovate the music industry for real. First, as anyone that has seen CNN.com Live knows, internet video streams are like watching television now. Myspace Music has a real opportunity to become a global streaming version of MTV. I’d love to see a weekly live music program with an in-studio audience, a global streaming version of the Myspace Music Awards (similar to the MTV music awards but worldwide), and other content that will engage. What artist wouldn’t want to play to Myspace Music’s global audience of 160,000,000. Imagine debuting a new CD that way. And since it’s the web, the audience could push one button below the live video streams and have access to every song the artist ever did. It would be a live version of a point of purchase display that reaches 160,000,000. Now that’s what I call revolutionary.

Much like MTV was dying in 2006 when he joined. Can he turn around MySpace? For the music industry and musicians, I hope so. But was he able to turn around MTV? We probably won't be able to answer that for a few more months, maybe years. I'm sure he'll take more talent from MTV Digital with him though. MySpace music is dying.
