What is scrobbling?

You can set a preference to have your music selections scrobbled while listening to
Last.fm on your Sonos system. This means that every song you listen to is sent to
Last.fm and used to create a personal music profile on Last.fm's Website, which in turn
you can share, or use to discover more music you love.

The scrobbling feature is optional, and is available to both free Last.fm subscribers and
paid subscribers.

To turn scrobbling on or off:

• Using the Desktop Controller software, click the Music Services tab, select

Last.fm, and click the Turn Scrobbling On (or Off) button.

• Using the Sonos Controller, select Last.fm from the Music menu. Select

Scrobbling, and then select On or Off.
