REUTERS -- Apr 25 -- MySpace has launched a test version of its U.S. site in Spanish and another that targets users in latin american countries, as part of a rapid global expansion that will see the service operate in about 20 global regions by June. About 50% of MySpace's overall growth comes from international regions. MySpace launched into new regions including striking a joint venture in Japan, the Netherlands and Germany. MySpace sees the Hispanic market as one of its most lucrative opportunities as it is one of the fastest-growing ethnic groups in the U.S. according to the 2000 U.S. census. 43% of all U.S.-based Hispanic Internet users visited MySpace in March, according to Nielsen Netratings.
