I still feel that a song isn't worth listening to if it ain't scrobbled

Discovered some cool German bands back in college because of last.fm

Does it even still exist? I loved it back then. I never (consciously) did that "scrobble" thing, but I listened to it a lot and found new music there.

Ah, I just checked. It looks like you can no longer listen to music directly on last.fm, only from other sources like YouTube or Spotify. Well, times change.
