Tim Vanderhook confirmed in a documentary that they are "stewards of the Myspace brand" and are "just waiting for the right time to do it." Myspace, launched in 2003, was a leading social media site before being overtaken by Facebook and was later acquired by Viant (then Specific Media) from News Corp in 2011. Despite an investment from Justin Timberlake, the Vanderhook brothers reported over $150 million in losses, and a 2019 server migration resulted in the loss of 50 million songs. A relaunch date has not yet been announced, and it is unclear if the revived platform will return to its music-focused roots or pursue a new direction.
