So ListenBrainz is a music app? I don't know what Last.fm is. Seems like Pandora maybe?
I'll download it if they're providing a service like music recommendation, not really seeing the benefit to me if they just record the data.
Last.fm used to have a Pandora radio aspect to it, but lost the race with YouTube music, Spotify, etc.
The thing that last.fm had that made them unique is what they call scrobbling. Basically they kept track of what users were listening to and made links between user preferences that you can use to find new music. I mean they used to, and they still do too, but with far far fewer users. Think Spotify's year in review, but running constantly.
Honestly, it's pretty great. I still hop on from time to time, because it's a great way to find less well known bands. Makes me sad for when it was better used though..
I dislike having to use Spotify b/c of the crap royalties the artists get from it. isn't this worse for the artists?
