CBS bought last.fm for a cool 280 million yesterday.

I love last.fm. I’ve found a lot of great music through the site. A high level overview for those who don’t understand what 280 million gets you: you sign up for a last.fm account. Once your account is set up you have the ability to scrobble the tracks that you listen to. “Scrobbling” tells the servers at last.fm what you’re listening to. Last.fm then takes the data you send them and recommends new artists based on what other users are listening to with similar music tastes. It also allows you create charts of what you’ve listened to that are useful for showing how your wife got you addicted to the Dixie Chick’s Easy Silence.

Ray Lamontagne is killing everyone this week.
