The only thing wrong with myspace is their layout. It's crap. They never improved it. They should have hired some good IT guys.
I disagree it's flash advert and "click to minimise" flash ad hell, as opposed to facebook's clean lines and minimalist advertising space. That's why I stopped using it - I can't be bothered to wait while the myspace loaded another 4 flash adverts from crappy internet servers and made me wait for the content I *actually* wanted to be displayed.
The interface was also shoddy as you said, and I almost had to send my original birth certificate in order for them to delete my account. Seriously hard work since the e-mail I'd signed up with was tied to a service provider I no longer used, and thus and confirmation of cancellation e-mails went into the ether, coupled with the fact you couldn't update your e-mail without having access to the original e-mail to confirm the change in the first place (which idiot thought of that varification process!)...urgh.
In the end I had to take a [b]physical photo of the code the messaged me, alongside my face, so they knew I was the correct account holder, before they would change the e-mail which allowed me to delete the account...unbelieveably annoying and long winded. Took a period of 5 days or so, constantly bugging them before I finally was able to cancel, who would typically persevere with all that none-sense?
