He has also praised engineers for the revamp, reportedly adding that it would be ‘pretty tough' to sell MySpace before the redesign and rebranding exercise.

I'm really not surprised. It was always a horrible platform, with pages customised to death to the point where they were illegible - more of a vanity project than anything else.
