Rolling last.fm thread 2009 no haters!

anyway if you have lastfm installed at home now it should scrobble from now on

and i guess it will show a fairer representation of what you played this week rather than a years playing on itunes!

It says it's scrobbling, but nothing I've played in the past 20 minutes has turned up on it yet. :-(

you have scrobbling ticked as enabled etc?

well your page says youve listened to stuff beyond the wizards ass or something

I reset it and now it's working.

so you lost 3000 dandy warhol plays then?

Can you send me another invite? I might get that now that I have good internet at work.

you dont need one. just sign up @ http://www.spotify.com/en/ and enter your last.fm username and password so it will scrobble!

but if you cant figure it out let me know i have an invite left

I'll give it a try on Thursday when I'm back at work.

Spotify does need invites at the moment, since they launched the iphone app.

invited you kate

OK! I can has Spotify! Awesomeness. Feeling a bit overwhelmed, really by having the entire universe of music at my fingertips. I may never sleep again. (too bad I can't rip it and take it home with me otherwise I never would sleep at all, ever.)

get proper internet at home! (or get an iphone)

spotify tags are so shit though - luckily i rarely use it but if i did, that would ~bother~ me

Working on getting a free iPhone through work. But that would mean that I'd commit to stay at that awful place for another .... amount of time.

That said, I asked my boss "Can I install Spotify on my machine?" and he was all "go ahead" without even asking what it was. So it does have its many perks, this job.

(My boss is way cool. We were trading Orbital MP3s yesterday.)

you need a premium spotify account mind you for iphones. I think grimly might have it but hes a traitor in our eyes for abandoning scrobbling..

are you subscribing Kate? to get better radio and see who has visited your page (the real reason people subscribe)

To what? Last.fm or Spotify? I might subscribe to Spotify if I end up using it loads. (Those ads are annoying, I had forgotten how annoying ads are, since I haven't had a telly in so long)

Last.fm - I don't CARE who visits my page, why would I do a thing like that?

It's really funny when I go to look at the artist page for whatever I'm listening to, and the Top Listener is an ILX0r.

Especially when it's Ned.

I am amazed any ILXors can be top listeners to anything, because last.fm works on some percentage-of-all-tracks-played algorithm which rules out being a top listener to anything if you've played more than a few thousand tracks.

(sometimes I get annoyed when I look up a band I like and find their top last.fm listener has played them like 3 times but has only played 60 tracks overall so is therefore worth more than me playing them 300 times)

Is there a way to find out if you're a top listener of anything without clicking on all the artists' "top listeners"? For top listeners it lists the % of all their listens that have been for that artist. I want to see that % for me for all the artists in my library. It would be easy enough for them to make this available, I'd think.

It's really funny when I go to look at the artist page for whatever I'm listening to, and the Top Listener is an ILX0r.

yeah i love finding tracks or artists where i know all the top listeners - happens most w/new dubstep or funky producers. pretty much all the top listeners for royal p - http://www.last.fm/music/royal+p - are people i know.

is there some kind of secret to uploading artist images to last.fm? i just get the first page you get when you login when i click the "upload another picture for this artist" link, that's it. no matter what browser i use.

to answer my own question, apparently if a band has only one image the link doesn't work right and you have to add "/+images" to the end of their URL.

thread fixed!

Gah, I subscribed once ages ago, just for a month, and when it ran out I carried on having the 'who's looked at your profile' feature, and presumably the radios and stuff although I never used them. I subscribed again a few months ago, and it's just ran out but they took away all the other stuff this time. Woes.
