Last.fm Review- How to find music that you love using music you already have

This is a music tool that everyone should have if they truly love music, and like seeking out branches of music they have never heard of but finding music they love. www.last.fm is the link for it, and it is a fabulous website with many different tools to help you find music. Sign up for it and you can:

1) Download the Scrobbler (which is only 5mb, and I guarantee no viruses) which can access your music player (like iTunes) and it transfers the names of the bands and songs that you always listen to. From that, it can recommend music to you based on your taste, and you can browse people who listen to almost identical music to you to find more

2) You can subscribe to the Recommended Radio, which turns on a radio and plays songs based on the music from your profile (you should download the Scrobbler for it) but you do have to pay a small fee. I chose not to subscribe, just because I am cheap ;)

3) You can browse without signing up or downloading anything at all. You just type in your favourite artist into the search bar, scroll down their profile while looking at the left toolbar, and go to Similar Artists, which lists similar bands based on how similar



Check it out :) I have found such amazing bands through it :) Tell me what you think of it!
