Google Chrome Last.fm Free Music Player

Last.fm, is not free for a long while, you have to pay 3 euros per month for full membership. As a last.fm member, I have been using it just for scrobbing, archieving the songs I listen to and getting information about songs, singers, albums..etc since they have brought the paid membership for listening to songs on last.fm. But the new last.fm music player add-on for Google Chrome has changed the situation.

First of all I want to tell what last.fm is, for the readers who have not met with it yet;

Last.fm is an Internet radio site for streaming music, founded in the United Kingdom in 2002. It has claimed over 40 million active users based in more than 200 countries. On 30 May 2007, CBS Interactive acquired Last.fm for £140m ($280m USD).
Using a music recommender system called "Audioscrobbler", Last.fm builds a detailed profile of each user's musical taste by recording details of the songs the user listens to, either from Internet radio stations, or the user's computer or many portable music devices. This information is transferred to Last.fm's database ("scrobbled") either via the music player itself (Spotify, Amarok) or via a plugin installed into the user's music player. The profile data is then displayed on the user's profile page. The site offers numerous social networking features and can recommend and play artists similar to the user's favourites. [Wikipedia]
