Well, I’ve finally found an easy way to use last.fm with the way I listen to music — which is all from my personal server.
It turns out that ampache has a builtin last.fm client support. So, anything that anyone plays using my ampache server automatically gets “scrobbled” to last.fm. I’ve currently set it up so all ampache users filter through the same last.fm user, but this can be changed.
So, you can see my user profile on last.fm. To see what I’m listening to, and my recommendations and stuff. Cool! Unfortunately, It took 5+ years (since the inception of audioscrobbler and last.fm) for there to be a workable solution to my flow. Thats kinda scary, but I’m happy that its finally working. Ampache rocks!
