They even offered ad-free days if you used them heavily enough, and so on. But this new version is effectively just Last.FM's existing radio service with a picture of somebody wearing sunglasses in the corner of the screen.<br />I think pulling the shareable playlists out of the free service is an especially short-sighted move; I can't be the only person who was drawn to the site by content posted elsewhere... and on a more selfish note I'm disappointed they didn't announce the go-live date of the changeover further in advance so I wasted a lot of time compiling stuff for future publication that I now can't use.
