Social networking site MySpace launched a new music program Tuesday that will provide exclusive video content from recording artists.

The MySpace Transmissions site will also offer audio tracks that U.S. users can buy as well as a private recording session with artists and video question and answer segments.

The first artist featured is James Blunt, who recorded five songs exclusively for MySpace including "Same Mistake." MySpace, a division of Fox Interactive Media Inc., said it will name additional artists participating with MySpace Transmissions in the coming weeks.

MySpace Transmissions content will be archived and available on-demand through MySpace Transmissions and MySpaceTV.

Fox Interactive Media is a unit of Rupert Murdoch's News Corp.
