    “Take that, Youtube!”

    Despite topping the user charts with over 750 million users, social networking monolith, Facebook, is rolling out a range of new services to keep its users happily posting, perving and otherwise wasting valuable hours of productivity.

    Reports have emerged that Facebook is going to up its game in the media content market by partnering with major online music outlets Spotify and Rhapsody (among others) to allow its users to listen to music, videos and other media, and share the love with their Facebook friends. Though nothing has been confirmed yet, services might be rolled out to US users as early as September, but unknown if/when those of us south of the Equator will get to have a listen.

    This is not the first twist  in Facebook’s tangled battle to keep us glued to their blue and white screen. Just last week, the site upgraded its privacy controls, moving them from the Settings page right into users’ in-line feeds- basically emulating the Google+ circles feature that allows users’ to control which groups of their contacts may view the posted content.

    So, all in all, a +1 for Facebook users, for now.
