Re: OT: Myspace music play count desaster

[Daryl Shawn <highhorse@mhorse.com>]

I see a note on Myspace this morning, saying that they're working on the 
problem, and it only relates to how the numbers are displaying, they do 
have the counts stored accurately. I see that my own counts are fixed, 
since two days ago.
