FoxyTunes, Last.fm and music service discovery
We added Last.fm player support in the latest FoxyTunes for Firefox release.
While this is good news for Last.fm users, it’s interesting to see that some people actually discovered Last.fm through this latest FoxyTunes update – see this Blog post for an example.
We’ll definitely explore this direction more in the near future – introducing and promoting music products and services by supporting them in FoxyTunes. It’s a triple-win situation IMHO – users get to discover and play with cool new music stuff, the service gets new users, and FoxyTunes becomes even more universal
By the way, FoxyTunes Planet was also built with this in mind – to be not only a cool place to discover new music, but also a place to discover new music services.
