[RSS FEED-from consistent personal brands]

My RSS Feed is a Thinker and blog is a top resource for anything technology. You will be up to speed with TechCrunch who has Just Posted the Following:

The ambitious new MySpace Music joint venture will launch this evening at 9 pm at music.myspace.com. All four major labels - Universal, Warner, Sony and EMI - are on board (EMI was a last minute addition). Also joining the venture is The Orchard, an independent music distributor, and four major publishing companies. Basically, everyone who controls rights to music is part of the new venture.

MySpace Music allows users to stream virtually any song ever published for free. Users can also create playlists that contain up to 100 songs and share them with others. Any song can also be downloaded in non-DRM MP3 format, for a fee, from Amazon’s music download service. And if you want that song as a ringtone, you can get it as well via Jamster.

Song streaming is supported via advertising on the site, and major advertisers like McDonalds, Sony Pictures, State Farm and Toyota are already signed up.

The site isn’t live, but we’ve included a number of screenshots supplied by MySpace (and it looks like the leaked screen shots were real).

Music Discovery

This isn’t just streaming music on demand. The playlist functionality and sharing will let users discover new music as well from the 4 million mostly unknown artists that populate MySpace Music along with popular mainstream artists.

MySpace will promote popular playlists from users and will also create their own Top 100 lists from all users as well as just your friends, coworkers, etc. So each user will have personalized music recommendations from their friends
