Well, that, and I don't like the way the "Similar Artists" thing is set up. Just because a lot of people that listen to, say, The Mars Volta, also listen to Radiohead doesn't necessarily mean the bands sound alike.

Yes, this my only real gripe with last.fm. It's utterly idiotic to scrobble by number than by duration. For me, Rachmaninoff and Ash Ra Tempel lose out whereas Minutemen, Michael Hoenig and the Residents get over-represented.
