I think a better question is: How do I optimize mixes for Myspace compression? Some tracks on Myspace just slam other do not sound as well. I don't believe its totally the all out quality of the recordings either.

Both of these seem to be questions that would be better off addressed by Mastering engineers though. I don't know if we necessarily have to change our mixes for MP3 or Myspace, they may need to be mastered differently with that intent though. Like if you're doing an LP and CD release the masters would probably emphasize certain aspects to maximize both mediums.
