Q&A
Last.fm is a music recommendation service that uses a music tracking system called 'scrobbling.' When you listen to music on Last.fm or a connected device, Last.fm tracks your listening habits and provides recommendations, charts, and personalized radio stations based on your tastes.
To connect your music streaming service to Last.fm, you need to set up 'scrobbling' for that service. Go to the 'Settings' section of your Last.fm account, find the 'Applications' tab, and follow the instructions to connect services like Spotify, Apple Music, or others. Once connected, Last.fm will automatically record your listening activity.
Last.fm offers both a free and a premium version. The free version includes basic functionalities such as music tracking and recommendations. Last.fm Pro, the premium version, offers additional features like ad-free experiences, advanced statistics, and priority support. The Pro version is available through a monthly or annual subscription.
