last.fm relaunched

last fm

Last.fm has relaunched! No mac player available for download yet, but a notice says that there should be one up soon. Although the new site looks nice, I can’t help but pine for the old audioscrobbler look, (Out of nostalgia, most likely).

I’ve been playing with another music recommendation service lately. Pandora, who used to be called Savage Beast, are now in a closed beta. It will be interesting to compare these two services as they represent two very different approaches. (Last.fm being entirely composed of user driven data, and Pandora being carefully created by professional musicologists.)

I will give Pandora a more in depth review after I’ve played with it a little more.
