Re: Last.fm

I know it says otherwise, but you don't have to be a subscriber to use the Image Designer.

What? I did not know this. Do tell.

Hrm, I guess you do have to be a subscriber, but somehow I became one without subscribing.

Hrm, a little further investigating shows that certain people who were "inconvenienced" by some server problems were given Subscriber status until the end of the year. I guess I was one of those. Interesting.

Here's the PM I received...

Apologies for recent problems with the site

Hi,
For the last week we've been recovering from some server problems, and the site has been somewhat unreliable regarding data collection and browsing statistics.
We were very unlucky with multiple concurrent hardware failures last week, and unfortunately we have lost three weeks of tagging data for a minority of users (including yourself). This does not affect your song submissions, but if you have tagged songs in the last few weeks, you may have to re-tag them.

We apologise unreservedly, and by way of apology we are upgrading accounts for people that have been inconvenienced. Effective immediately, your account now has 'subscriber' privileges for the rest of 2005.
If you were already a subscriber, your subscription will be extended free of charge.

Features available to subscribers can be viewed here.

We've also just released some new features, read about them on the front page of the site.

Regards,
The Last.fm Team

MEGABUMP. How are your musical tastes coming? Dethklok is on top for me, but Weezer's making the distance.

Re: Last.fm

I believe my last.fm is in my sig. Been using it since 2006 and have around 25,000 plays. Now that I have an android phone with last.fm on it scrobbling my plays, that number will probably be around 40,000 by the end of the year.

Re: Last.fm

Yeah, I have an iPhone and I love having it Scrobble instantly using the iScrob app.

Makes me want to listen to music more frankly.
