Audioscrobbler

$ bunzip2 xmms-scrobbler-0.3.6.tar.bz2 
$ tar xvf xmms-scrobbler-0.3.6.tar 
$ sudo apt-get install libmusicbrainz2-dev
$ sudo apt-get install libcurl2-dev
$ ./configure 
$ make
$ sudo make install

Which is to say that I'm using Audioscrobbler again. By the way, I wonder why Audioscrobbler doesn't make use of the ID3 comment field. It might be worth wading through ten omg-this-band-is-soooo-hot-type comments to uncover one of the hey-did-you-know-frank-black-covered-this variety. (And comments on/off could be a preference.)

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who prefers to bunzip2 and tar xvf separately!

$ tar xvf xmms-scrobbler-0.3.6.tar.bz2 --bzip2 might be more elegant, but it's a draw in terms of speed thanks to tab completion.

Just googling Audioscrobbler but I couldn't help comment... Why not the j switch? seems fastest to me!
