last.fm plugin: use last.fm tags for local music collection (1 Viewer)

[tomtom21000]

One of the advantages of last.fm is that a song can have multiple tags, not only one genre.

So "Dido" or a track by Dido might have tags like "pop" "female vocalist" "00s" "ballad" and more.

So my thought is:
If we could store the (let´s say) most popular 15 tags for a track or artist for all the songs on your harddisk, this would enable a

personal tag feature for your local music collection.

With this feature you could easily play songs from "70s", "trash metal" "gothic rock" or whatever from your local music collection.

This would probably need a database extension.
A batch scan from the setup app would be nice.
And integration in the Music share watcher.
Of course it would be an optional feature.

Anyone interested?
rtv, what do you think?

Yup, something like this WILL come in the mid-term-future. Not only for radio but also tagging from MyMusic.

Listening to tag radio is already possible for those who compile on their own - there is just no decent GUI control to select more than one tag at once.
