Download a plugin for your favourite mp3 player, and audioscrobbler keeps a record of all the songs you play EVER on its website. This is good because it lets you know how cool your taste actually is, as opposed to how cool you think it is, by generating weekly and all-time charts. This is my page: [URL]http://www.audioscrobbler.com/user/unknownkernel/[/URL] I've been doing it for ages and the most I've ever listened to a song is 7 times. Surprising. And my favourite song is apparently M'Gell by Ultrakurt, which I've never heard of but turns out to be a song on a mix CD I have.

Anyway, the coolest thing is that everything is linked. Click on a song in your profile and you get a list of other people who love that tune, or listen to it a lot because they really hate it. Click on an artist and you get a list of their most popular songs. Click on a user and you see all their fave tunes, plus what they're listening to RIGHT NOW. Woo! You can also get reccommendations based on what you listen to - like amazon except that it works, and throws up things you've never heard of.

And and and you can make your own groups, and I have very cleverly made a special reserve one for you to join [URL]http://www.audioscrobbler.com/group/Special%2BReserve[/URL] Groups with 10 or more members get weekly charts, so Special Reserve would have its very own number one.

So, yes, you should all join.

More members damnit!

Surely everyone listens to music on their computer?

Security isn't an issue, I didn't have any messages pop up or anything when I joined, and we've got some pretty tight security going on as well.

As far as which program you use to listen to music, you could always import your songs into you WMP library and just play 'em through that.

This looks like a pretty good service from the 11 pages I've read, but problems =

*I have really complex and un-allowing security systems running

*I use MMJB, only WMP for CDs, which I would listen to on the stereo anyway. SO this means there are complications over WMP (apparently) and that it wouldn't be a fair representation.

Solutions?

Hath bought myself a Tim Buckley/Goodbye Hello double album for £9, dissappointing really and not up to the standards of Goodbye And Hello and Once I Was althouth Valentine Melody is quite nice.
Yes this is a blatant pop for this thread, the more people we have the better, especially if theyre not angsty punk kids ;)

Wonderful...
