LAST.FM GOES PROPER RADIO LIKE

Monday, September 14, 2009
So this is interesting, Last.fm is becoming a proper radio station in four US cities, which I think kind of defeats the point of the original Last.fm ethos, but hey, whatever. The online music tracking and recommendation service's owners, CBS, are big in US radio of course, and will be launching a Last.fm branded radio service in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and San Francisco, and online, next month, with a playlist influenced by the platform's user-generated weekly charts. I think the Last.fm radio station will have proper programmes and presenters, though whether that will be the norm or the exception I'm not yet sure. There is a Programme Director - CBS Interactive's Seth Neiman - so presumably there be a few programmes for him to direct.
