Req Last.FM for Music Scraping
#1
Last.FM covers a much wider range of artists from different continents and metadata can be written by fans as artist profile that way even those adding the data don't even know it.... i have lots of artist that AudioDb can't scrape for me but on PLEX or MB3 does it well

for example
  • Yung6ix
  • Wizkid


it's okay if it can't be done, my skills in python and XBMC is still unripe so the reason for a request,

also it could be that the way MB3 and Plex search this data is different from XBMC if it's true then i must say they both do it more efficiently than XBMC

i may/might be wrong it's just tests and thought put together
Yeah, Me, Myself, and I, The Three Musketeers

seems nobody is maintaining the scraper for last.fm but it used to be supported (many years actually).

scrapers are not written in python.

Surprised that the Last.fm's API looks to be free to use by anyone

I thought that LastFM was not free for other applications to use

lastfm did not appreciate the traffic XBMC/Kodi generated...
...other than that, there is no standard size and quality of the images over there.

Please add the artists to theaudiodb.com
