MySpace (and Tom) Goes After iTunes (Video & MP3)

The current chapter of MySpace’s upcoming incarnation goes like this: MySpace adds Justin Timberlake as a friend; Justin Timberlake accepts; Myspace and Justin Timberlake conspiracy against iTunes. Actually, this is going to be the plot to the upcoming straight-to-dvd movie, “Social Network 8: It’s Tom’s Payback, Bitches!!!” where Justin Timberlake teams up with Tom, played of course by Tom Cruise, and they infiltrate Apple Headquarters in a explosive action, thriller, comedy, drama, documentary film. But before that, there will be a long training montage set to “Eye of a Tiger” where MySpace finally admits to his lifelong addiction to horoscopes and finally realizes that in order to be great, he must….not read horoscopes?
