The folks at Last.fm have been receiving a lot of comments (apparently) from punters who are not at all happy about the upcoming $3 a month charge for the previously free service.
So much so that they are now 'delaying' the decision on when to begin charging.
Listeners in the States, UK and Germany won't need to pay because there are more of them using Last.fm...it's the rest of the world who will have to cough up their hard earned dough.
On the last.fm blog they're now talking about the fact that they've "postponed the date on which radio will become a subscription service outside the USA, UK and Germany. In the meantime we’ll be squeezing in some additional improvements based on your requests".
Interrresting .
