*ATTENTION: I NEED YOUR INPUT*

I left this til the last moment, but I really need some help for my feature story due tomorrow.

Please answer this question for me, and please leave your e-mail address so I can list you as a source if I use your quote (no one will contact you, but my teacher wants "proof"). Answers will be screened to protect your email etc.

Has using Myspace introduced you to new bands that you might not have known about otherwise?

Has using Myspace made any bands you were already into "bigger" (more popular or successful)?

What good or bad effects has Myspace had on bands you like?

---> In other words, what good or bad things has Myspace done to YOUR music/musicians?

My thesis is this: Myspace has sped up the whole process of the rise to fame. It's a good thing for new bands, but it's blurred the line between fan and artist. Many bands become so popular so fast that there's a backlash because people feel like "their" bands get too big which places more distance between them and the band they felt close to before they got big.

Any comments are welcome, not just responses to the above questions. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!
