Myspace has lost over a dozen years of music and photos.
Yikes.
The social media company that was around before Facebook, Twitter and Instagram lost the music and photos due to a “server migration project”, which caused about 50 million songs to be lost.
Andy Baio, who’s a co-founder of the art and technology-driven XOXO Festival tweeted “Myspace accidentally lost all the music uploaded from its first 12 years in a server migration, losing over 50 million songs from 14 million artists,”” he tweeted. “I’m deeply skeptical this was an accident. Flagrant incompetence may be bad PR, but it still sounds better than ‘we can’t be bothered with the effort and cost of migrating and hosting 50 million old MP3s.”
