Just about the only use I've had for Last.fm since the advent of Spotify is to sit, wide-eyed, marvelling at the vast amount of excellent music I listen to, a testament to my immaculate taste and musical wisdom. Now though I've discovered the (very new) Libre.fm, which is, surprisingly, the free music alternative to it's slightly defunct commercial alternative and which has the very obvious advantage of only covering music which is free to download. Plus it represents, or rather could represent another move from the CC community to set itself up as a viable alternative to the commercial distribution system, which is a nice idea at the very least.

Anyway, the site is still very much in it's infancy and that shows in the primitiveness of it all but everything has to start somewhere. Well worth a look regardless.
