Tom, you let me down. But I can’t stay mad at that face.
Remember MySpace? Well, if you’re still using it, you recently had a rude awakening. Because all 8 of you just lost every bit of music uploaded to the service between the years of 2003 and 2015.
From BlueRajasmyk2’s post on Reddit:
I realize MySpace isn’t a hot topic anymore, but I’ve never seen it posted anywhere so I’m posting it here.
About a year ago, all music on MySpace from 2015 and older stopped working. At first MySpace said they were working on the issue, but they eventually admitted they lost all the data (and apparently didn’t have backups?). See this thread for more details.
So, if anyone has any old music they think they have safely backed up to MySpace, make sure to back it up somewhere else or risk losing it forever. If your only copy was on MySpace… sorry :\
Essentially, MySpace lost all of the data for any songs uploaded more than 3 years ago. And this all happened during a server migration. Basically, unless it’s a photo or a friend on your friends list, it’s gone, yo.
At least MySpace Tom is still here for us.
