Hi there, I've seen the LastRhythm plugin, but all I have now are ideas and a few sample code. I'm not sure where it will go, and how much it will differ from LastRhythm (it will not be the same, that's for sure). If you are interested, I have done a plugin that automatically gets a similar song of the one playing and puts that in the queue. It uses Last.fm and is availiable somewhere in the Wiki or the mailing-list (sorry I cant find it from you, I'm not at home). It is not well tested and I havent developed it further, but you can try it and if you find any bugs I can fix them.
About Rhythmbox blocking with LastRhythm, that should'nt happen. I've done a few plugins getting information from the internet, and none of them had to block the UI. That is probably a problem in LastRhythm. I will take a look if I can help it in anyway.
