Last.fm is a UK-based Internet radio and music community website, founded in 2002. It claims over 21 million active users based in more than 200 countries. On 30 May 2007, CBS Interactive acquired Last.fm for £140m ($280m USD).
Using a music recommendation system called "Audioscrobbler", Last.fm builds a detailed profile of each user's musical taste by recording details of all the songs the user listens to, either on the streamed radio stations or on the user's computer or some portable music devices. This information is transferred to Last.fm's database ("scrobbled") via a plugin installed into the user's music player. The profile data is then displayed on the user's profile page. The site offers numerous social networking features and can recommend and play artists similar to the user's favourites.
Users can create custom radio stations and playlists from any of the audio tracks in Last.fm's music library, and are able to listen to some individual tracks on demand, or download tracks if the rights holder has previously authorised it. Registration is required to acquire a profile but is not necessary to view any part of the site or to listen to radio stations.

nice tracker
Last.FM is a really good alternative to the classic radio. Just turn it on and it straight plays the tracks you like (but first you have to tag a bit)
In the beggining it must be a little confusing to use, but it's a good service...
So much free radio, Last.FM, AOL Radio, SHOUTCast, we live in divine times.

Mobbler is a Last.fm radio player and scrobbler for (Nokia) S60 smartphones. It allows you to listen to your Last.fm radio stations and to scrobble tracks played using the S60 Music Player.
I love Last.FM and Mobbler!
Even if you only pick one artist you like... it does a great job of picking the others you probably do! Just started using it & love it!
BEST place to discover new music and to listen to music which you love ^^
I'm truly addicted to the numbers. I'm about to reach the 60.000 tracks in 2 and a half years.
