The Last Ripper has been released in a new version. The software can be used to save Last.fm music and requires a Last.fm username. The usability and interface has been changed a lot in this new version. The first change is probably the most important one: Users can now search and create Last.fm playlists inside the program instead of copying and pasting urls from Last.fm into 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.
