It looks like (as of May 1), that MySpace is claiming license to
redistribute any content on their site, but the license goes away after
you remove the content:

"By displaying or publishing ("posting") any Content, messages, text,
files, images, photos, video, sounds, profiles, works of authorship, or
any other materials (collectively, "Content") on or through the
Services, you hereby grant to MySpace.com, a non-exclusive, fully-paid
and royalty-free, worldwide license (with the right to sublicense
through unlimited levels of sublicensees) to use, copy, modify, adapt,
translate, publicly perform, publicly display, store, reproduce,
transmit, and distribute such Content on and through the Services. This
license will terminate at the time you remove such Content from the
Services. You represent and warrant that: (i) you own the Content posted
by you on or through the Services or otherwise have the right to grant
the license set forth in this section, and (ii) the posting of your
Content on or through the Services does not violate the privacy rights,
publicity rights, copyrights, contract rights or any other rights of any
person. You agree to pay for all royalties, fees, and any other monies
owing any person by reason of any Content posted by you to or through
the Services."
