i fun tool to see how your music taste matches up with the qc last.fm group:

http://anthony.liekens.net/pub/scripts/last.fm/comparegroup.php?user=&group=questionable+content
My musical preference is 63.05% similar to the questionable content group. Musically, I fit in!

How well do you fit in?

the music difference cloud at the bottom is pretty interesting

Beastmouth · « **Reply #1 on:** 07 Feb 2008, 22:17 »

Jesus fuck, I have a pulse and that's it. The rest of the world hates me or just thinks I should shut up. Shit, I think I should shut up. Fuck you for asking!

edit: NOT THAT I WANT THE PULSE

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #2 on:** 07 Feb 2008, 22:19 »

Holy fuck. 90.11%.

I guess I can stop thinking I'm better than all of you now.

a pack of wolves · « **Reply #3 on:** 07 Feb 2008, 22:33 »

51.7%, much higher than I was expecting. Oh, it's based on what things have been tagged as rather than matching artists. That makes more sense.

Carlyism · « **Reply #4 on:** 07 Feb 2008, 23:18 »

My musical preference is 91.64% similar to the questionable content group. Musically, I fit in!

I fit in but the premise behind the script is pretty stupid. It should judge by artists.

ledhendrix · « **Reply #9 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 02:53 »

70.34%

I agree, going by artists would be a far more accurate way of doing this.

David_Dovey · « **Reply #10 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 02:57 »

50-something per cent, but the tags I got aren't exactly indicative of my musical taste at all, I think.

FireAarro · « **Reply #11 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 03:57 »

ouch. 90.56%

I was kind of surprised that its so high.

Liz · « **Reply #14 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 08:10 »

90.47%.

Also I apparently listen to far more emo music than the group. I don't know how that happened.

Joseph · « **Reply #15 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 08:13 »

Yeah, it's kind of silly that this judges based on tags, which can be given completely arbitrarily, many of which are quite dumb.

About right, I figure.

I wonder if it's counting all the old stuff I used to listen to, or just the data from the past six months like I have it set. Because a year ago, I listened to shite.

Lines · « **Reply #19 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 09:25 »

82.7% I'm actually kind of surprised. I thought it would be lower.

Jackie Blue · « **Reply #20 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 09:30 »

The script is crap for the sole reason that basically almost everything is tagged as "indie" or "alternative" and that's probably why so many people are getting such high scores.

bbqrocks · « **Reply #21 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 09:48 »

hehe, 27.08%. Guess I don't fit in here.

How come you all have an account already? When do you use it? Is it good?

Already? It's been around at least since summer of '06.

Yes, it's good for putting on a "radio station" that doesn't have commercials, will usually play songs you know and love, and sometimes play you something you've never heard before.

bbqrocks · « **Reply #23 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 10:01 »

It's good if you want to show someone the internet what you listen to, and can't be bothered to explain it because they probably won't have heard of anything.

Scandanavian War Machine · « **Reply #24 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 10:21 »

Not sure if that's a good or bad thing. Kind of surprised it was that high, actually.

It's also great for showing off how diverse and indie your taste in music is.

I guess you could call it a Challenge Pissing Enabler.

Katherine · « **Reply #29 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 13:29 »

I like Last.fm for the event manager, so I can tell my friend in Chicago what shows to go to so that I may live vicariously through him since it is so very rare that good shows swing by my way.

Spluff · « **Reply #30 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 16:43 »

I pretty much just installed it and let it go. Every now and again I like to look at the recommendations etc. (because I seem to have a fetish about finding new bands).

I don't think i've ever used the radio player. some of the stat toys are pretty cool

Tom · « **Reply #32 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 16:57 »

I use last.fm because in australia, we're not allowed pandora.

Lines · « **Reply #33 on:** 08 Feb 2008, 17:35 »

I use it to see what other people listen to and see if it sounds like anything I should look into and also because of the radio. And I hate the "So, what kind of music do you like?" question and now I can just go "This kind!" without confusion, as it doesn't make sense when you don't have a visual aid.

I've been a member since 2004, back when audioscrobbler and last,fm were different websites. I joined for the stats, the recommendations and the networking.

Joybee · « **Reply #35 on:** 09 Feb 2008, 01:51 »

70.something, But I'm definitely not into indie or jazz, which are my top 2 categories apparently? I almost downright hate jazz. I can't stand the awkward rhythm and instrumental solos.

glyphic · « **Reply #36 on:** 09 Feb 2008, 12:55 »

I put my username in and I got an 85.53. Funny thing is, it's not my account. I don't even have an account. Mandatory Psycho-Freakout!

Guys, I think I broke the script. It's telling me that to be more similar, I should listen to less indie rock.

I didn't even think I listened to that much indie rock...

leperphiliac · « **Reply #40 on:** 10 Feb 2008, 11:32 »

79.76% If I really wanted to fit in, I'd need to listen to less post-punk,rock, punk, experimental, and female vocalists. I'd also need to listen to more indie and indie-pop. Somehow, I don't see that happening anytime soon.

While that practice is stupid, I fail to see how it makes a difference.

The QC group listened to a lot of music tagged as alternative.

I'm sorry, I just can't get into jazz? I never played an instrument, and every band kid I know loves jazz so that probably has something do with it, I just don't have the musical appreciation for it. Well thats not true, I appreciate how well they can play their instruments and experiment with music but I just don't like ithe way it sounds.

KharBevNor · « **Reply #47 on:** 11 Feb 2008, 05:27 »

Don't worry about it man, it's probably just subconscious racism.

Joybee · « **Reply #48 on:** 11 Feb 2008, 17:00 »

And I must subconciously hate white people too because I don't like country very much.

So... Subconscious misanthropy? Or do you like mariachi music?
