  1. Last.fm is a site much like Pandora but different in the way it works. It actually does artist on demand. You set up a profile, choose the artists you like and it will play from their music and any single songs you add to your database. There is a web app and a pocket pc app also. It has a slightly different business model than Pandora. They pay licensing to the artists and publication companies per song like Pandora but put a cap on hearing one song 5 times total....unless you pay 5 dollars a month. Their library is just as extensive as Pandora and based on what I hear, they are doing better financially than Pandora who might have to shut down due to small margins after paying out royalties. Last.fm doesnt force you to hear anything other than the songs and bands you like and there is not the same suggestion setup as Pandora which has its pros and cons. Pandora has support for only a few Sprint phones and the Iphone...no third party app for streaming to phones in general like Last.fm.

    Hope that helps.

    I tried opening and closing the browser and turning the Rip on and off and I still get the tracks I erased ?

  2. I got it working. It seems to randomly not work on some songs ? I am not sure why this is. I know others have mentioned this but it doesnt seem to have a pattern "like every 5 songs it misses one". Thanks for your hard work on this.

    Also, since I dont want all songs I hear.....when i delete a folder it seems to come back the next time I launch the app. How do I get rid of the folders/songs for good ?

    Thanks again

  3. Thanks for the input. I am having the same issue as the poster above with the error before launching the app. Beyond that, what does flash player mean....as in....I need to make sure i have updated to a certain version with Firefox? Where do I get that? Macromedia.com? Would the error reported by the other user keep it from downloading cached tracks? Sounds like it would be the reason I am not getting tracks to download. Where do I check to see which version of Flash I am sporting ?

  4. I would like to thank you for the work you have put in what looks to be a killer app that is also simple. Less is more.

    I like fred thompson in post 75 and others, am getting plenty of scanning but not ripping.

    I removed part of the log...since it was repetitive and the emoticons were not allowing me to post.

    Not sure what I am doing wrong. Xp pro. I am fairly sure I am set as admin.
