MySpace, Sony Launch Portal

Los Angeles-based MySpace and Sony Pictures Television have launched a new portal focused on TV shows from Sony, the firms said today. MySpace said that it will create "minisodes", pared-down episodes from popular TV shows from the Sony library, in a short three to five minute length. The shows will be featured on MySpace Video, and will include shows like "Starsky & Hutch," "Charlie's Angels", "Facts of Life", and "Dilbert". MySpace said they will add new "minisodes" weekly with more than 500 to be available by end of year. The new MySpace section will be sponsored by Honda.
