I've always, always wanted a way to easily share the music I am interested in, and listen to, with the world, and now I can.

Visit: http://www.audioscrobbler.com/, set up an account (takes 5 minutes to do), get the plugin for your desired MP3 player, and it will send to the site every song you play. This way, people can visit your profile and see what music you like, what artists you listen to most, recently played tracks, most commonly played tracks etc. etc.

It's a very, very good system.

Obviously my user is: http://www.audioscro...om/user/agatio/

Looks good. Isn't it Adobe software? I'm willing to try it. But I've heard that it really sucks working with iTunes, so I'm probably gunna try it with Window Media Player.

[Elliott]

I don't know where you pulled Adobe from :rolleyes:
You download a plug in for your MP3 player (iTunes, WMP, Winamp etc.) install that, then the next time you run the player, you do a little configuration, and from then on every song you play (though I'm pretty sure you have to play at least a couple of minutes of the song) gets sent to their database (through the ID3 tags) and gets shown on your page. After you play a certain amount of tracks, it will show most played artists, songs etc.

Oh, that makes sense. I'll try using it from my itunes ( since my windows media isnt really that great).

[Izar]

lol, I read it from some site, said that is was adobe, oh well. Sounds good, I'll download it sometime, just a bit busy now.

Oh, how many tracks can you have, or there no limit?

[Elliott]

No limit, I've seen a few profiles with people who have 4000, 15,000, and even 23,000. It counts how many times tracks have been played though, not individual tracks.

[Golden Djinn13]

Is it possible to get music from this site?

[Nick Presta]

I have listened to over 20 000 songs since I've been using Winamp but AS doesn't record anything you listen to on Winamp Radio (Which is the majority of my music).

Grr @ AS.

[Nemphtis]

What if I was using my media player to watch porn, would it display that? O_O

[Nick Presta]

I don't know. I don't believe so as I've watched pr0n with Winamp and I don't think it shows.

Porn? Dear Lord, how CAN you? ...

But never mind.
Anyway, audioscrobbler appears to be quite interesting. However, to reiterate what GoldenDjinn13 asked; you can't actally download songs through this? It is simply used to display what songs you listen to most frequently, etc.?

Sweet. That sounds like a good idea.

Simple. You open it and watch it. Although I don't.

Golden Legacy, you make me chuckle :rolleyes:
No, you can't download music from this site, all it does is record what you listen to and display it on the site. After 100 plays, you get more stats (like I do now).
