2. Mutual Artists. I like what you guys did with the musical compatibility bar on the profile, has a good selection of common artists. But I really want to see ALL of the artists we share, not just 4 or 5. I have to guess what artists we share to use the http://www.last.fm/user/%user%/library/music/%artist% link which is a slow process.
You may want to check out this script.

Did I hear that right? Mondegreens - for the misheard word.
Like Odds? Can't get better than Even Odds!

Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

The new features I want are no new features. What I want is pretty simple... and will keep me subscribing for life.

First and foremost, focus in on the data architecture and get it right! If I had a buck for every time I've said this over the years, I'd be a rich man: get the front-end wrong, you rebuild the front-end; get the app layer wrong, you rebuild the app layer + the front-end; get the data architecture wrong, you rebuild everything.

Whatever it takes, focus in on the data architecture and work toward an accurate catalog. That doesn't mean perfect scrobbles, but it does mean building an abstraction mechanism between the labels and internal sys, integrating the album attribute, and cleaning up the base catalog. Whether its integrating Musicbrainz, Discogs, or additional catalog services, implementing additional internal MDM mechanisms, or a combination of all the above, pick a method/arch that moves you in the direction of serving the system of record purpose, and get it done. Without it, you're just building new services on a faulty foundation... house of cards.

Second, work on enhancing and solidifying the API. Make the jump to allowing full control (integrate banned track retrieval, shout retrieval/tracking, track removal, message management, etc), and build in an appropriate synch mechanism.

At its core, LFM is a data services firm. Data services are it's bread and butter. They've got the one thing that no one else has: scrobbling ubiquity. As a result, they're the perfect service to serve as system of record. Work on the data services and API and everything else falls into place.

well said.

Re:Old subscribers wants playlist functionality back

Just give me back functionalities that I had before
1. Play play lists
2. Play loved tracks

Yeah, this is exactly it! Where are my playlist functions and why tf. did you remove the ability to play loved tracks radio!

Also, that VIP-Playground page sucks... Not really a VIP, is it.... I hate when pages pretends to give VIP-privileges, but dont.

I still cling to my subscription, though. But are getting more and more annoyed. That new discover function is booooring... What is the difference from before, a fancy layout with a windows XP backround looking interface? pfft.

Ah I think I've seen that script before but never tried it because I thought it was outdated. It's pretty neat. Thank you!
I just wish the links on the artist names linked to this:
http://www.last.fm/user/%user%/library/music/%artist%
instead of this:
http://www.last.fm/music/%artist%

But it's possible to edit the script to do that.

Also, there was one more feature I forgot while typing my last post.
4. 'Enhanced' play history. I don't know if last.fm stores that type of data but it's basically telling me (on following page) what program I used to scrobble that single play. I thought of it helping with deleting those 1-play-only artists I mentioned earlier.

One thing you can do is add /tag/*genre* to listen to music of that genre in your library.

15 pages of reasons to get through before adding mine -- read first & last.

For me the service needs to work on mobile devices in Canada. I used to have the ipod app before it got restricted and then broken by an apple update.

I don't want to haul a laptop to listen to new stuff -- last.fm needs to get into more markets. I heard and bought a lot of new music when I used the service (Kaiser Chiefs, Thea Gilmore, Snow Patrol, Martha Wainwright, White Lies...)

Upshot of it is -- I'm using another service that does support mobile devices in Canada -- they may not be as good but hey the option isn't there.

Just a small idea, not sure where to put it but I'm a subscriber and this would make me a happier subscriber so here it is.
The change to the events page being recommended events is fine, but I personally never use it. If there are events on in my city of artists I listen to, I always hear about them before browsing events on last.fm, hell, I add a lot of them myself to last.fm. I use the events page as a more comprehensive gig guide for local bands that I've never played or maybe even heard of. So I always have to click "All Events".
So I'm just wondering if an option can be added to choose "All Events" as the default events display.
No big deal though... :)

Free trial over, I won't be back

I was not impressed with Last.fm. The website is not intuitive. I found it difficult to update after having initially entered some of my music preferences. Even having to give my feedback via these threads seems very impersonal. Will anyone from the Last.fm team ever actually read this. Unfortunate really because I had high hopes. Last.fm. Lot's of potential but failed to deliver...for me at least.

This is possible if you go to the playground: http://playground.last.fm/ and scroll down to the neighbourhood one.

It would be nice if this were linked from a user's neighbours' page. That way, anyone interested in finding out their neighbourhood over time could be able to find it easily.
