Myspace have announced that in the last 30 days over a million new users have signed up to the long-considered-dead social networking website.
Since being abandoned by Rupert Murdoch – who lost over $500m (£318m) on the deal – the website has been taken over by a consortium of investers including The Actor Justin Timberlake.
Speaking to The Guardian, Myspace CEO Tim Vanderhook said: “Consumers are getting excited about Myspace again – a testament to a great music product.”
Members can now stream music from Myspace via a Facebook app, resolving years of dispute between the two rival social media giants.
