 I have to say I thought it was a shame when I heard this news. I didn't 
 use the lastfm plugin much but I did use it from time to time. Can't see 
 myself forking out $36 a year for it now.

The error handling is still not perfect, it is quite difficult to test!
The version in the REL-1_9_1 is better but still fails from time to time.

404 errors are temporary and 403 are permanent, so I've a bit of work
still to do.

As Jim says it's a good service and the WAF is quite high.

Thanks for the clarification, good to know it's working again. I have to 
get back to the iphone interface work and take a copy of that then I'll 
be checking out 1.9.0 very shortly after.

John,

You should try it again with 1.9.0.  I had that same problem with 1.8.3.
I'm a big fan of LastFm now.  But it seems to work fine without paying
any $ at all.  I've learned about so much more music that I wasn't even
aware of.

Thanks for the feedback.

Jim

I didn't know that. I tried the plugin after I heard the news and it 
just sat there with the elapsed time showing 00:00 and nothing ever 
played so I assumed it didn't work any more. Must have been some other 
reason for it.

You don't have to, there is just an option that is add free!

May be at busy times then with a subscriber option it works better and
less tracks are not available.

I have to say I thought it was a shame when I heard this news. I didn't
