No doubt the focus will likely be on professionally-created videos rather than those churned out by amateurs. "MySpace TV" will also include television and movie clips from News Corp-owned NBC Universal and Fox. The point worth mentioning here is that the content on the new site will be available even to those who are not registered members of the main MySpace social networking Web site.
