The Betamax Doctrine & Last.fm

I’m a tech junkie and I love music. As a result I have some great computer equipment and make use of some amazing software such as Rogue Amoeba‘s Audio Hijack. It was with great interest that I read Paul Kafasis blog post on Last.fm’s streaming music catalog and the implications for recording tools like Audio Hijack Pro.

I worry that his fears may be realized sooner than later as the record labels are run by what seem like bunch of money grubbing monkeys stuck in the 1950s.

For those wondering about Last.fm’s streaming music catalog… well essentially you create a player based on your music preferences and it selects songs it thinks you will like and plays them – fully and completely – for you. You can embed the mini-player on your own website and have a personal radio station that only plays music you like!
