is there any reason to do last.fm when there's multitudes of other radio apps (Pandora, Grooveshark, Slacker) out there?

I used to prefer it on my PC. I was hoping to use it on my phone, but found the app was buggy. So no I don't think so. I use Pandora and Slacker now on my phone. Mostly Pandora since Slacker botched the most recent app update.

I think people like the scrobbling feature to share/try specific stuff. The above alternatives are all computer-generated.

Yeah. Unless Slacker, Pandora, and several others also start charging, this won't make any difference. Enjoy losing tons of subscribers, Last.fm.

I've always found last.fm to be really repetitive the few times I used it. I'd always get the exact same songs when I played the stations.

That said it'll still work on WP7 and XBox 360 which is nice for me since that's the only places I ever used it.
