yeah, I always do things like "hmm, I listened to In Utero in the car today... I'll queue it up in iTunes while I'm at dinner."


this can backfire, though. Public Enemy and Stevie Wonder are both in my top 15 artists, and neither is really a big part of my music experience.

If it's not good enough for Billy Bragg, it's not good enough for me.

As for last.fm, I'm more into it than I think I should. All avoiding listening to CD's on my stereo at home because it can't register the tracks. All having difficulty breathing when Audioscrobbler fails to "update my iPod" (7/10 of the time, basically).

Anyway, for those who haven't noticed.

Which plugin do you use? I use iSproggler which has yet to fail submitting to AS. The only issue with it is that when I close iTunes I get an "another program is connected to iTunes, are you sure you want to quit" warning every time.

Oh, and the group has always been Member Aproval. Although Bozack could give us an avatar and open up the journal.

I forget which plug-in I'm using, but I think it's a java one.  Unofficial, etc.

It will totally sync my iPod listenings, but only if I remember to plug in the iPod before playing any songs in iTunes.  Otherwise, I get an error from last.fm like "The song you are trying to add is older than your most recent listen!  We're stupid and don't know what to do?  Mommy, the bad man hurt me!"

I'm using the regular, official AudioScrobbler plugin – I don't think there are alternatives for Mac OS. They released this new Last.fm player which is supposed to do all the work without the need of a plugin, but apparently it can't handle the iPod submissions.

Not yet, but they're working on it. The old iTunes (Mac) plugin was the only one that ever handled iPod submissions natively without any extra work. It seems weird that they'd have people stop using it before the AS program was able to do the same thing.

The Java one that I'm using oughta work on the Mac too.  It used to be listed as a semi-official download, but check the forums - it's one of the largest threads there.

Audiopod Goes iScrobbler or something like that? I used to use that one but switched to iScrobbler because it supports MBIDs. but it's of course only works with Windows. Which is weird because the guy who wrote/supports it only has a Mac.

I use iScrobbler on my Mac, and it works just fine.

iS (Mac) has always supported iPod plays. It's us Windows users that need 6 extra programs and a quart of goat's blood to get iPod plays to sync.

The newest (1.2) version of iScrobbler seems to be working fine for me now. Ar least the icon on the menu bar now turns green when it's talking to the server and red when such conversation is impaired. Nifty!

So, about the Underground Vinyl group… What to do we do for funs there? Is there a pool table?

I'm not sure what we do in the Underground Vinyl group. I like to sit there and look pretty, but then again that's what I do every day.

Also... I HATE fugs who purposely put wrong tags on music! How the FUCK did Britney Spears get played on an alt-indie stream? God dammit, I was talking on the phone to the Wombie (kellichou) and I didn't notice that it was playing. now my stream is FUCKED and people will see on my last.fm profile that I listened to Britney fuck*ng Spears. Fuck you, Spears fan who mistagged that. Augh.

But it's ok, because you have Hot glasses.

GOD DAMMIT I DO NOT HAVE BRITNEY SPEARS ANYWHERE ON MY COMPUTER.

I was listening to Last.fm Radio, and invariably there is some fuck who tags Britney Spears or death metal as "alt country" and it comes up on my fuck*ng playlist while I'm listening to the internet radio. Okay???
