MySpace was created for and, early on, largely marketed to bands who wanted a simple page with a place to feature music. It only caught on with the public as a secondary.

Now, bands are pretty much the only people who still use the platform at all.

Where did you learn that MySpace was created for bands? Wikipedia states that they just explicitly copied the most popular features of friendster.
