I'm not sure, but in my googling this morning, I did find these two bits of information: <a href="http://www.e-consultancy.com/news-blog/363769/last-fm-signs-content-deal-with-sony.html" rel="nofollow">Last.fm signs content deal with Sony</a> <a href="http://www.e-consultancy.com/news-blog/362626/last-fm-signs-deal-with-warner-music.html" rel="nofollow">Last.fm signs deal with Warner Music</a> It sure seems like they're going about it as legally and respectfully as possible. Not that the record companies deserve much respect. Good question. I’m not sure, but in my googling this morning, I did find these two bits of information:

Last.fm signs content deal with Sony
Last.fm signs deal with Warner Music

It sure seems like they’re going about it as legally and respectfully as possible. Not that the record companies deserve much respect.

I was under the impression that services like this were under attack from the record companies because they <i>don't</i> sell you music (the 'buying cow/getting milk for free' argument). And I see that Pandora is now shut down outside the U.S. Is Last.FM likely to have problems because of this kind of thing? Have you been following the copyright/legal issues surrounding this?
