MySpace Music To Launch Tonight. Here’s What You’ll See (And Hear)

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).

MySpace Music allows users to stream virtually any song ever published for free.
