MySpace says that 1 billion songs have been streamed since the News Corp. social network debuted its MySpace Music service last month.”We can confirm that we hit a milestone of one billion music streams only a few days after launching the new product,” the company said in a statement, and a MySpace PR representative clarified to CNET News that the number only includes songs streamed since MySpace Music’s debut. “More importantly, we are still compiling our metrics on engagement and unique users which will tell a much richer story on how positively the community is responding to the new music experience. We’re excited to share more information and data as soon as it’s available.”
