Well the title is a bit harsh, but it seems last.fm has opted for the subscription model. No more free radio paid for by web banners, obviously that wasn’t enough. So now it’s either Spotify and their in-audio ads, or coughing up 3$ for Last.fm.
I like last.fm but it seems that everytime I play the same Tag radio, there are always the same songs on.
My 30 tracks freebie is already wearing thin, so, looks like I’ll have to dig out Spotify and let advertisers pay for the airtime. Otherwise back to Radio One and all their wizzles, chats and ads that come with it…
