I heard a rumor that they used to be on Cold Fusion? If true, a move from that to any other technology, including Microsoft stack, would be a good move.

While Los Angeles doesn't stereotypically have good developers, good developers exist here. Demand Media and Google have 300+ people offices here. I suspect the problem is, either MySpace didn't hire good developers/architects, or MySpace hired them but management didn't listen to them.

Yes, I think they used to run CF.
