Could there be a listening count for me on very artist page and on every track page. Maybe in a box with other personal information such as: "last.fm thinks this artist fits you 85%"
I get sent to pages by my friends and then I wonder whether I've ever listened to that artist. And when coming across an artist name on the internet, I usually look him up on last.fm. I then miss the above described information. But furthermore I'd like an estimation how good he fits with my profile.
I know I can get the listening count via my all time artist charts and via my all time track charts. And I regularly do. .. But it's three clicks + a search in the site, every time I come across an artist I don't know.
And I really miss this "fits ...% well in your library". I suppose that's hard to calculate for every artist - user pair. But you are already doing it for every user-user pair.
There are several artists that share the same name. Last.fm does not provide a solution for separating them. There should be a way for artists with the same name to have different Last.fm pages (also in favor of the artist).
Because when I want to listen to Sebastian's similar artists there is always some weird Swedish guy coming up that is not at all similar (except for the name ;) ).
Hi, i just tried to post this question, but as it seems not to have worked I'll try again:
Was there a change regarding the similar-artist-radio some two or three weeks ago? I've been a regular listener to the similar-artist-radios for "Stars" and "Regina Spektor", and I've been getting their songs regularly on these stations. Mostly the stations started with the respective artist.
That has changed now. I'm still listening to these radios and if the radios had stayed the same, I guess I should get around 6 or 7 songs per week for each of the artist. But I got none. So I presume, that the main artist got excluded from the similar artist radio stream.
Is that the case?
I don't want to go back to listening to my playlist just to listen to my favorite artists. That's boring after some hours and the stream won't resonate a specific mood I'm in in that moment.
I'm using the stand-alone client in winxp (discovery mode is turned off and can't be turned on for similar-artist radios).
Please, give me a chance to listen to my favorite artists. I'm getting a little frustrated with last.fm. I've been listening to my streams for half a month now, but I didn't get the music I wanted to listen mainly.
