Solid engineering! Definitely needs a mobile app though.

Question that might be out of the scope of this HN post: what are some of the most obvious monetization models for this kind of services?

Edit: Last.fm doesn't scrobble music? Why?

Edit 2: After spending sometime on it, I'm loving it even more. I would suggest some sort of a community or rooms feature where I can discover music from a specific genre or style.

Thanks! Obvious monetization models for such services are: - affiliation (sell concert tickets, based on your musical preferences, which is based on your activity on the site) - sell "music influence network" data and/or promotion services to labels / bands - sell subscriptions to third-party music services to broaden the range of music available on the site, especially for off-line / mobile consumption, or quality of audio Today, our focus is on building a good platform.

Our last.fm scrobbler was a quick "friday" feature, but I'm happy to investigate this issue with your help if you contact me (adrien at whyd dot com)

Genre-based communities/groups are on our roadmap. We are going to release a genre-based onboarding next week, in order to subscribe to more relevant curators.
