TRMshadow
09.28.10 | in the U.S. it's free. other places there is a trial period, then you have to pay |
SCREAM!

Jesuslaves
09.28.10 | I don't get lastfm |
SCREAM!
09.28.10 | its like facebook but music oriented i guess |
TRMshadow
09.28.10 | You really need a scrobbler if you're going to get all the site's worth. |
Gmork89
09.28.10 | I have one but it is pretty useless other than showing your music stats. |
NeroCorleone80
09.28.10 | I use Grooveshark instead |
DoubtGin
09.28.10 | yea, but its pretty cool to know what you've listened to in total and shit.. and it can give you some pretty good recommendations
|
Spec
09.28.10 | I'm in Canada and it says I get 30 tracks then its $3 a month or something. |

09.28.10 | What? In Canada it's free man. |
DBlitz
09.28.10 | that's not what last.fm is for though, you download the scrobbler and the site basically records everything you listen to so you can show off ur taste and then it recs u shit u might like. |
SCREAM!
09.28.10 | oh if you use the special radio then yeah. but i use it for the scrobbler and recs |
SCREAM!
09.28.10 | completely forgot about the radio thingy tbh |
Spec
09.28.10 | Well just the radio costs money. As far as I know everything else is free. I'll get the scrobbler thing. |

09.28.10 | Fuck the radio, no one uses it |
Spec
09.28.10 | Haha okay. |
Baphomet
09.28.10 | I was concidering making one, but now that I know I have to pay... |
SCREAM!
09.28.10 | you dont if you dont use the radio which no one does anyway |
Baphomet
09.28.10 | yeah but it would be like making a facebook account with no purpose of stalking. |
Masochist
09.28.10 | Yeah, ridiculous to make you pay for the radio feature when Pandora exists. But the stat-keeping feature (the whole reason for the site) is boss. |
climactic
09.28.10 | ADD ME |
Masochist
09.28.10 | Have you really listened to over 3,000 songs in the past 13 hours? |
Spec
09.28.10 | Oh shit it connects to itunes! OK this is fucking cool! |
Spec
09.28.10 | I'm too dumb to know how to add people, send me a friend request and i'll accept. |
EyesWideShut
09.28.10 | was thinking of starting an acount also. When your a member, can you listen to a certain song or does it still take you to the bands "radio" |
Masochist
09.28.10 | To request friends yourself: click on the profile of someone who you're not friends with, then click "Add As Friend" (or something like that) underneath their profile pic. |
Emim
09.28.10 | I could only see using the radio if I was at work or something. |
Masochist
09.28.10 | EyesWideShut - There are some full songs you can listen to on certain artist's profile on Last.fm, and most every song has at least a 30-second preview, but on the radio, it's random (no choosing specific songs). |
Spec
09.28.10 | @eyeswideshut:
Connect it with your iTunes and don't bother with the radio. |
Oceans
09.28.10 | No... radio doesn't cost anything for me, its free in U.S. |
Spec
09.28.10 | Kind of annoying that you have to listen to the full song to get the play count. I usually just listen to full albums but sometimes listen to a song then change it when theres still a few seconds left. |
Xplisit
10.05.10 | mine scrobbles when i get halfway through a song, you can change it in options somewhere |
