    I'm currently listening to our Last.fm group[^] radio. I know it's been said before, but holy crap. This is some diverse music. I just got done listening to some Infected Mushroom[^] and now I'm listening to Black Sabbath (no surprise where that comes from ;)). Infected Mushroom is interesting. I'd have never even heard of them if it wasn't for this group. And while I wouldn't normally say that I like trance music, it was actually pretty good. If you haven't already, you should join. We've currently got 73 members, but we could always use more. :)

    I just got my wmp plugin updated so I'm uploading the stats on the last 950 or so songs I've listened to. Is there any way to get the group radio to play in the player, I've only been able to do it in the flash player which isn't really as cool.

      If I'd been a member, you would have been getting plenty of The Stooges and Iron Maiden recently. Plus a smattering of late 70's Hawkwind. OK, it's probably better I'm not a member.

        Actually, it's even worse. Undre Tools/Plug-ins there is an entry for AudioScrobbler WMP plugin and that entry is checked. But the icon for the systray is non-existent. I suspect it is because I'm using WMP version 11 and the plug-in isn't supported. :((

        I'm using WMP11 and the Last.fm player (plus audioscrobbler plugin) fine after the automatic update. Try their support forums, if it has happened to you it will have happened to others too.

          Thanks for the link :-) I haven't had much success joining other CPian ventures. For instance, I joined Colin Angus' CP region (nation states) and my country is doing really bad; I am ranked pretty much at the bottom of the CP region. :-( Hopefully this fm thing would turn out to be a better experience :-)

          If you get any Attila The Stockbroker[^] tracks coming through, it's probably my fault. ;)

            In your settings (on the web site) there is an option to play the radios using the last.fm player, or the inbuilt flash player. Just change it over and hit refresh.

              It works with WMP 11 - I can personally confirm that. Have you checked the audioscrobbler logs?

                      I've used Pandora. I don't like having to keep a browser window open to play music. Also, I like the fact that this is tailored to our group here, so I get to listen to some music I would never have heard of before.

                        I would join, but I doubt the CP crowd is interested in the stuff I listen to... ;)

                        Heh. I don't listen to a whole lot of religious music, so I fit right in. ;P Besides, if you don't want anybody to know about what you're playing, you can always disable scrobbling. ;)
