Enjoy while it lasts
by Volker Weber
Record label Warner Music has said it will stop licensing its songs to free music streaming services. Companies like Spotify, We7 and Last.fm give free, legal and instant access to millions of songs, funded by adverts. Warner, one of the four major labels, whose artists include REM and Michael Buble, said such services were "clearly not positive for the industry".
I never understood how Last.fm "works". But I am enjoying it while it lasts.

They relly want to push the self-destruct button, as deep as they can, right?

I didn't understand also. But I'm using and enjoying it day by day. Hopefully it will last for a while...
