While I applaud the change that makes last.fm's "Now Playing" feature work, there's a serious problem in scrobbling, whereby a song that is skipped (even if only a fraction of a second of the track has been played) gets scrobbled.
Note that this behavior not only unacceptable for my usage but is in direct violation of rule 2 in last.fm's rules for "When to Submit": 1. The track must be submitted once it has finished playing. Whether it has finished playing naturally or has been manually stopped by the user is irrelevant. 2. The track must have been played for a duration of at least 240 seconds or half the track's total length, whichever comes first. Skipping or pausing the track is irrelevant as long as the appropriate amount has been played. 3. The total playback time for the track must be more than 30 seconds. Do not submit tracks shorter than this. 4. Unless the client has been specially configured, it should not attempt to interpret filename information to obtain metadata instead of using tags (ID3, etc). |
