MySpace is considering adopting the OpenSocial platform but has concerns about how it may impact their competitive advantage, users, security, network management, and profits. Adopting OpenSocial could remove MySpace's individuality and customizability while giving them less control over content and potentially enabling data phishing. However, it may also make it easier to extract payments from users and reduce costs without intermediaries, though perfection in platform design is not guaranteed. Overall MySpace must weigh these factors versus maintaining their current platform and demographic.
