Linux software find: Last Exit

Superb stuff:

Last Exit is a program that allows you to listen to last.fm music streams. Lightweight and GNOME-based, it is a far superior alternative to the original last.fm player (KDE/Qt-based, buggy playback), rhythmbox (bloated app) and LastFMProxy (tedious and relatively difficult to configure). This is what Linux software is about: small apps that do specific jobs really well.

What are you waiting for? Go get your free sounds now. Or visit my last.fm profile.

Update:

Pssst. You can also download a patched version, which allows you to ’save’ the currently playing song to your hard drive. Uber nifty neato stuff. Details can be found on this ubuntuforum thread. Don’t tell anyone I told you this.

Notice the extra ’save’ button. Oops, I’m not supposed to show you that.
