Goodbye Last.fm

A while ago Last.fm announced that users living outside countries like the USA, the UK and Germany would need to pay a 3 EUR monthly subscription.

I was a big fan of Last.fm since I joined it in 2007. Now, I’d like to say goodbye to it for as long as they don’t go back on this decision (actually, since their announcement I never turned on my Last.fm clients).

I decided to do this not because of the 3 EUR monthly fee, but rather because I feel their decision goes against the community that helped build their service. Also, I know that 3 EUR for me might be nothing but for a guy in another country might be a significant amount of money.

Good bye Last.fm, good times we spent together.

BTW, go explore Jamendo and let me know what you think. Also, check if Spotify works for you.
