Last.fm is not offering playback of full length music tracks and entire albums on their online music community website for users from the United States, the United Kingdom and Germany with other countries to follow soon thereafter. Songs can be played for a maximum of three times before information about a soon to be coming subscription service pops up. Details about the subscription service which will will have options for unlimited playbacks are scarce at this point, it is only sure that it will cost more than the current subscription price of $2.50 monthly.
Save Last.fm songs with The Last Ripper
I’m probably the last person on earth who is not having an Last.fm account. I never paid much attention although Last.fm was mentioned every now and then in news and in chats. The main interface reminds me of Pandora but the options and possibilities given by Last.fm exceed those of Pandora by a large margin.
The Last Ripper is a freeware audio recorder that saves Last.fm streams as mp3 music files on your hard drive. A Last.fm account is necessary to use The Last Ripper. Once installed you enter your login name and password into the software and choose one of the radio stations available.
