Last.fm, the world’s largest social music platform with over 20 million active users, is now accessible through Electric Pocket’s award winning LobsterTunes MP3 player for Windows Mobile. The company has just added auto-scrobbling support to LobsterTunes, which means that when a tune is listened to, the name of the song is sent to Last.fm and added to the listener’s profile.
Music fans can now share their favorite tunes, discover what their friends are listening to, hear new music, and get recommendations - all on their Windows Mobile devices.
