Alf Eaton: "[...] [A]t this point it becomes vitally important that Last.fm/[create Audioscrobbler] finally provides a dump of the collected data under a Creative Commons license, as they've failed to do for so long."

Data availability was an integral part of the original (if informal) Audioscrobbler user contract. It seems to have fallen by the wayside, like a lot of the original Audioscrobbler ideas (why would I ever want your darn player instead of an unobtrusive plug-in, Last.fm?).

It's probably high time to get some open data initiatives going.
