Apple launches Ping - My Space getting squeezed on all fronts!

So Apple launches "Ping" (where do they get these names!) which is going to be a music social networking site, with stuff like letting you build playlists from your friends selections, and a hang out for musicians.

My Space was hanging on by its teeth, as this was apparently the last part of the market that it was strong in. I can see the Apple Itunes/Iphone/Ipod marketing machine decimating this, as they grow this new network.

My Space traditionally has stuck the fingers up at Facebook, but theres an interesting article from cnet news that says My Space has now finally allowed its users to synch content between its platform, Facebook and twitter. So you can cross post content now between the platforms.

Never really understood or got into My Space, I always saw it as younsters thing, but with Facebook now actively going after business users, and Apple going for the music followers, I wonder if My Space can re-invent itself, or will it end up as another Bebo?
