We knew that MySpace had a new redesign in the works, and their redesigned logo ruffled a few feathers, but their newly revealed redesign has garnered some positive reviews from the web community.

Get ready for some news that will blow your fucking mind. Ready? CD sales are down. I know! Down? How could this be? The execs at Atlantic Records feel the same way.
