I can explain why: Vagalume also support the OLD (unsupported) Api. This allow UK, USA, Germany people to listen Last.fm for free.

Last.fm has not disabled the old API yet, and I find this very un-fair for new developers that want to create a new client.

Interesting app, I'm in the UK but at work my internet traffic goes out of another country.

I have a (authentictaed) proxy at home for such purposes. Vagalume supports a proxy, but unfortunately lastgo doesn't appear to yet.

Is this something that can be added to the wish list...

Thanks!

Does that mean I can use the LastFM api key I have on Vagalume? If so how do I do that because the api file you gave me to import to lastgo cannot be read by Vagalume?

We (LastGo and Vagalume) use a different format for our apikey files. You've to manually edit those files and substitute the strings.

But I REPEAT: it's useless you use a different api key. The problem is not the API KEY, the problem is that I'm using the NEW APIs while Vagalume uses the OLD ONE that allow to stream for free. Those api are UNDOCUMENTED, I cannot use them, and I don't know how to use them.

So, please, don't spend time trying to mess with apikey files, it's pretty useless.

Ok well thanks for trying. Shame really, but I will just have to use the website. Never mind.

So this only works for paid subscribers? Not for the free ones?

Vagalume is using the old protocol API, but it (the old protocol) will be disabled soon.
