DJ Pete Tong has been declaring his love for MySpace, and opined that the site is now a fundamental part of the music industry. He said: "On the web, fashion dominates and MySpace was hot and then Bebo was hot for a minute and then Facebook is now hot and I think the great thing about MySpace is, almost like a great restaurant or a great club, it's past its fashionable phase and now I think it's really finding its feet. I think as a music application it's really, really strong again. I don't think it ever lost it but I think the interest after people have looked at everything else and they've kind of gone back to MySpace. As Amazon is to books MySpace is to music".
