I was about to gripe that no one kept their board user name...and then I realized that I didn't either.
 
 Anyway: aobehr = nkotb
 
 I haven't checked Last.FM in a while, but I had a message from a fan of Dashboard Confessional complaining about my listening to Gwen Stefani and Jay-Z.

I got there late, and ended up NOT in the front, where I usually am.
 
 Womp, womp. The show was good, though!

 already in the 930 group since it was started, but i still don't find myself listening to music at the computer all that much, so my playlist doesn't get updated terribly often.

Do you need to pay for the subscription to this?  I signed up a long time ago but haven't really figured it out.

Does the Last.FM scrobber only work on tracks that you're actively playing?  Or does it take the recently played information from your iTunes library to populate the charts?
 
 I could've sworn reading that the download did the latter, but my charts are only showing things I listened to at home on the computer.  Do I just have an older version?

i use iscrobbler for the mac and I have to hit update ipod in the iscrobbler drop down for it to detect what was played on the ipod, although that does not work with a shuffle

You listen to Jay-Z.  They're a Dashboard Confesional fan.  You will apologize for not a damn thing.

Agreed, but does SNOCAP have a deal with the majors in place?  I haven't read that they do which is why I'm skeptical as to how long they'll be around.

They must some sort of agreement in place as they are doing digital distribution for a number of major label artists....

SNOCAP has a deal with Myspace as the sole distributor, and the bands/labels have a deal with MySpace to distribute their music via myspace, but I'm not sure that SNOCAP, by virtue of that deal, necessarily has a deal with the artists (individual artists will vary of course, say if SNOCAP provided distribution on the artists official web site).  But does that translate into distribution via unlimited streaming on a separate web site, where presumably SNOCAP would make a profit?  I would doubt it, otherwise every other music retailer (MS, Apple, Amazon, Rhapsody, Emusic, etc.) would stream the whole song and not just 30 second clips.
 
 This is of course, pure speculation on my part, but I would venture to guess that boomshuffle is "Beta" until that gets worked out.   If Boom Shuffle had an agreement of unlimited streaming of the music to it's members, it would have been big news, and I didn't hear a peep about it.  A deal like that is unprecedented.
 
 Don't get me wrong, it would be awesome, but I just don't think it exists.

Well at least Boomshuffle and SNOCAP have the air of legitimacy about them vs several of the other playlist based sites I've run across.  Especially a couple of them which allow users to upload their own music without any indication obvious mention of copyright ownership being required.
 
 Doing a little more diggin indicates that Boomshuffle is using SNOCAP's Digital Registry or Catalog, so one would think that there is some sort of agreement to use the tracks.  Clearly Boomshuffle   is an interest widget that be added a variety of social network pages...
