In addition, iLike hosts band pages in a manner similar to Myspace music and visitors to iLike can purchase and download music.
Myspace may be aiming to generate more traffic, since the news provider reveals that iLike is popular with Facebook visitors - over 10 million individuals on the latter are signed up to the music program.
