Last.fm Mode
AXiS’s Last.fm mode is a powerful and
fun way to discover music and create
personalised radio stations which
respond to your feedback on-the-y.
Last.fm is one of the largest online
music resources in the World and
uses a simple interface to easily
nd and play music by artist, genre,
descriptive tag or community input.
Radio stations you create will be
unique to your tastes and fresh every
time, picked from Last.fm’s growing
library of over 5 million tracks.
One of the key features is “Scrobbling”;
a technology which learns your musical
tastes over time, based on what you
listen to and any feedback you provide,
constantly improving the recommenda-
tions you’re offered. In Last.fm mode,
your AXiS will scrobble data, building
up a unique listener prole which gets
more and more accurate as you use it.
Last.fm services include:
• High quality audio streaming
• Personal radio stations
• Your own prole page
• Create and share playlists
• Free media library
To use the Last.fm service on AXiS requires
a monthly subscription charge but in terms
of value for money, it’s hard to imagine
where you could get better access to so
much music for such a small fee. For less
than the price of a magazine, you can
get 30 days of unlimited access to the
full range of Last.fm’s online services.

Note: If scrobbling is turned on,

to your Last.fm prole, further
enhancing your recommendations.

Last.fm
Turn scrobbling on and every track you
listen to in Last.fm mode will be stored for
future reference. We recommend that you
do keep scrobbling on, as it improves the
recommendations aspect of the service.
If you choose not to scrobble however,
all the modes will still work just ne, and if
you select any tracks to “Love” or “Ban”,
your feedback will still be saved.
Log into your online account at
www.last.fm at any time to view
