LastFM

What

Show the currently playing song from a LastFM user.

caution

Be aware that LastFM updates may be severely delayed when paused and songs may linger in the "now playing" state for a prolonged time.

Additionally, we are using HTTP requests to get the data, so you may need to adjust the http_timeout to your liking to get better results.

You must request an API key at the LastFM website.
