  • maybe to avoid people making 1 seconds songs and get their friendsto spam the last.fm with playcounts and get those artists at top400.
    wait top 400 is by playcount or the number of people that listened the artist in the week???

  • Sucks though... Alot of Naked City tracks I listen do not get scrobbled because they are less then 30 seconds...
    ...and then they also have a 30 minute song...

    Albums like this might be a reason why tracks shorter than thirty seconds aren't scrobbled... 21 minutes -> 100 plays?

  • I think it would be ok to display the songs, but the length should be displayed as well.
    And it would be a great idea to display the average play time of an artists in the library.
    For example "artist x" has an average song playtime of 3.00 minutes and "artist y" an
    average song of 12 minutes, then "x" gets a "short-tracks-sticker" and "y" a
    "very-long-tracks-sticker" :-)

  • I think the fact that songs under 30 seconds arn't listed is fine. I dont know it doesn't bother me cause alot of the music I listen to goes well beyond 8 minutes so 30 seconds isn't much for me :p
