Nah, didn't know about lfmseek but after looking it over I'm thinking about extending the concept to harvest recs based on your listening habits rather than it being a search driven utility, sort of like Soundamus. If anything, it'll keep me off the street for a couple of nights. ;-)
elwood, lfmseek has an option to search on last.fm username, which is essentially a 'listening habit' search, in that it looks up last.fm's suggestions for that user. The problem with lfmseek is that the author had to go through painful steps to access the emu data, and hence is quite slow. The API may make an implementation much easier and faster. I emailed the author, but I was under the impression he'd abandoned the effort due to randomly varying emusic code changes. Maybe the API will attract him back to the effort - it's a fine idea/tool. But go for it, the more the merrier - the idea's golden.

Now they seem to be encouraging it.
hmmm
Very useful, though slow. I would hope the API would make it a lot faster. Wonder if the author's still interested.
