Yeah there's been a lot of errors and difficulties with the web scrobbler, makes me think it may have been better to build everything from scratch rather than forking, but let's see.

Yeah i used last.fm quite a lot for a while there in the early 2010s, had some good times finding new music through it as well so was hoping part of its magic could be replicated while using hive to store it for "free" as well as forever - since part of my issues were losing an account and having to start over.
