Commercials

I only came back to this site a few days ago, and remembered why I stopped using it for awhile. It used to be that the site played only one commercial before starting your radio. Now there's one (and the SAME DAMNED ONE) every 7 songs or so. If I want that garbage I'll listen to the regular radio! Let's not forget that little over a year ago there used to be NO commercials. Knock it off already!

First, Babs_05, I hope I don't offend you, by jumping in on this topic.

However, I am very glad to have just one commercial every 7 songs. If this was the year 1980 and FM radio was all we had, I would get maybe 4 songs, then 3 commercials and a bunch of jibberish from the Disc Jockey and then an announcement of what the next 3 or 4 songs will be, before I could get on with listening to the music.

This is the model that streaming radio is based off of and frankly, one commercial every 30 minutes is quite phenomenal! Actually, it is so darned great, I cannot grasp why, anyone would complain?!

Subscriptions to Lastfm radio are cheaper than a jar of dirt. At three US dollars a month, to get NO advertising, I think that is a screaming mad, crazy great deal! ;-)

No commercials

I refuse to subject myself to more commercials. I've listened to Lastfm for years now without having commercials and I'm just supposed to accept this crap? Never. It is never acceptable.

It's kinda necessary to keep the site running for free. At least they didn't go the youtube route and have ads every other song(and mid song on some videos).

Last.fm has to be able to get money so it can keep running. It takes money to run a website. It takes even more money to run a website with streaming. Quit complaining. You could be listening to FM radio, which has three to four minute commercial breaks every two to four songs. Plus, you get annoying DJs talking in between. With Last.fm, you get one 15 to 30 second commercial every half hour. I say that's pretty darn good.
