I might know something that scrobbles and isn’t Spotify or Apple

ScrobbleRadio Mix - The Complete Mix by James Harris on Apple Music Playlist · 300 Songs

As long as your trip isn’t longer 59 hours, the ScrobbleRadio Complete Mix has you covered

That’s awesome, glad you’re digging it!

I wish Apple would actually show how many adds there were of a playlist like Spotify though. It caps out at 99, so you can only see the most recent subscribers. My guesstimate at this point is 160-70 on AM.

Just in case people were under the impression that playlists can only get traction on Spotify.

I love listening to Kids Disco on @radiomilwaukee.bsky.social on the weekend. Today’s theme is old school hip hop.

Neptunes or Sleeve 2 are great scrobbling options in macOS.

Because it’s Wednesday, and Wednesday is the day Cheryl usually plays Business Time,
Monday night is Riz’s time to cook,
Tuesday night we hear Olive’s mother Evie,
But Wednesday, Cheryl gives some sweet, weekly love to Flight of the Conchords

Web Scrobbler not workable?

I may have built my own alternative

In mentioning all these, I would much more readily watch these performances if I could scrobble them without it being a pain in the ass. Tiny Desk sessions that have track by track timeline markers are wonderful, they just don’t happen all the time.

ScrobbleRadio running on AppleTV

Also I did actually discover that you can use ScrobbleRadio with AppleTV, though it seems to only work when paired with a second Airplay endpoint (at least in my setup). Here I was playing music from my phone and to an AirPort Express I have in my basement.

There isn’t currently, but it’s on the “I’ll get to it eventually” list. In the interim you can mute tabs, at least on desktop, which would probably serve your purpose. I know a browser like Arc used to have built in media controls that you could control volume output for the browser.

Check out my app @scrobblerad.io, it's got tons of listener supported stations that do focus on local community building and being an alternative to AI

I swear @last.fm really needs to do an awareness campaign on all the ways music can be scrobbled. So many people seem to be under the impression Apple Music/YouTube Music/TIDAL/Deezer/Amazon Music simply can't be scrobbled, when that is simply false. Spotify isn't the lone platform you can scrobble.

There are workarounds for that shortcoming. Check out Marvis Pro or Pano Scrobbler.

There are definitely ways to do it. Check out Marvis Pro for iOS, or Pano Scrobbler for Android. finale.app also does the job cross platform.

That actually means little in this context. The last.fm app is pretty crusty and there are better options to scrobble with. Check out this Reddit thread for some guidance to get started

It warmed my heart today when I was looking at the Matomo analytics for ScrobbleRadio and noticed someone has very clearly installed the app on their local and modified the shit out of the stations for their own purposes. Love to see it, especially since I’ve been tremendously lax in documenting.

This isn’t a deal breaker. If you care enough about scrobbling, consider purchasing Marvis Pro. It’s the best Apple Music scrobbler out there. It will scrobble non-library tracks. Though the 2 wells thing is a lastfm shortcoming, not an Apple thing.

They pivoted their business model from trying to be a social network and also ran streaming service to being a data aggregation service. There’s value in being a platform agnostic music data aggregator. CBS/Paramount has a whole bunch of other data services in other niches as well.
