I used a load of different albums to put together compilations on spotify, making my weekly look a bit strange. Top Gear?

Pourin one out for last.fm. My internetz is too shaky for u.

Miss u last.fm

The three founders of music recommendation site Last.fm, Martin Stiksel, Felix Miller and Richard Jones, are to leave the firm later this year.

Two years after the site was bought by US media giant CBS and seven years since once of the UK's most successful web 2.0 start-ups launched, all three are to leave Last.fm to concentrate on new projects. The company is to remain at its base in east London.

Join Songkick now. It’s ace!

lol britishes

Try as I might, I can't see that three-founders-leave thing as anything other than a worrying development.

Your musical compatibility with Gaughin is Low

Music you have in common includes The Hold Steady, The Flaming Lips, Love, Super Furry Animals and Vampire Weekend.

i see youve played the shit out of nickel creek's "spit on a stranger" but no pavement plays...need to rectify the situation immediately imo

maybe the 3 of them agreed at the takeover they would only stay on for a few years.

lol a t.i. picture i uploaded AGES ago has finally made it to the front page

u can see why! http://www.last.fm/music/T.I./+images/20151525

how could anyone vote that down

none of my top tracks/artists are showing up, my play count is intact though. checking random ilxors and overall it seems to be a sitewide issue.

yah same prob here

founders payback

aaaaaaaaand they're back. phew. i guess i should probably back up my stats up somehow.

they were down? Wondered why so many ilxors visited my page overnight!

So. The crappy Last.fm client has started scrobbling all my iPhone scrobbles twice. There are complaints about this all over the site, but nothing even approaching an acknowledgement.

Given that the only thing I ever really use it for is being anal about my listening habits -- and iTunes covers that reasonably well -- what, exactly, am I wasting my time for? Ach, time to throw off the chains, I think.

HOLY SHIT that feels liberating. Bye, thread!

Tell you what, though. It's weird listening to music without wondering whether it's being scrobbled properly/duplicated/mistagged/etc. After, what, two and a half years of obsessive Last.fm-ing, it's a bit like listening to music in the nude.

Grimly nudist

Grimly Judas

Anymore traitors deserting us? ;-)

it isn't scrobbling my plays of DRS - Gangsta lean so maybe me!

check your tags

my media player was just being shit, nothing scrobbled after a certain stage last night, working fine today.

I did my part, I spent the weekend listening to every Michael album, from Got to Be There to Invincible.

New Order finally knocked off the top of the ilxor charts

New Order finally knocked off the top of the ilxor charts

That's got nothing to do with MJ; it's just because I deleted my account :)

we sent you to Coventry ;)

(we havent really)

Can someone explain why New Order is always at the top of the ILX list?

Because, despite those last two albums, they absolutely fucking rule?

ilx is indie + old.

In all seriousness, that's exactly it: if there's one band to which a sizeable core of ILX0rs is going to return again and again, it doesn't surprise me at all that New Order are it.

but the ilx indie have to pretend they dance rather than rock
xp

otherwise they be "corny"

weekly charts are not immensely informative; 80 play counts for one artist = 8 out of 679 people listened to the same album last week

by =, i mean "roughly equivalent to"

Yeh, exactly: it's a tiny sample and the results are pretty much meaningless.

80 play counts for an artist means 80 individuals listened to at least 1 track by that artist
