Despite the Service Agreement for Myspace, many bands spam Myspace --  
in fact, there is software that circumvents Myspace's policies to  
allow bands to spam thousands of users a day (yes, there are ways to  
get around the 300 friend-request per day limit).

As a result, many users have set their profiles to not take friend  
requests from bands.

Since I have a band profile myself, it seems only right to accept  
requests from other bands.  However, if someone spams my comment  
section on a regular basis then I remove them from my friend list.  I  
appreciate the time and thoughtfulness of people when they leave me  
personal comments.

What you can do, though, is to send a message to someone and ask them  
to request you as a friend.  I have done this a few times when, after  
looking at someone's profile, I was reasonably sure that they would  
find my music of interest.  In every case, the people I contacted sent  
me friend requests.  People do enjoy personal notes and some evidence  
that one has taken the time to actually look at their profile.

And that's about all I know about Myspace.
