For a long time you’ve been able to favourite your tracks so you could have quicker and easier access to them. Now the same feature has been added to albums and artists. Simply click on the <3 icon on an album or artist page to favourite an item.
It’s now also possible to quickly remove favourited items on your personal dashboard page. Just click ‘remove’ next to the artist, album or track.

For instance if you browse to “My Albums” and select an album or an artist from there you will only see the tracks that you have listened to for that album. You can toggle this easily on the page itself if you want to browse all tracks for the album. This feature should make it easier to browse your personal library.
Tags: featuresSomething I’ve been wanting to do for a long time turned out to be a fairly quick and painless feature enhancement. I simply love Ruby on Rails and the easy integration with Prototype. AJAX becomes a breeze.
The feature in question is automatic updating of your recent tracks and artists shown in the sidebar. Earlier you would have to manually reload the page but now it automagically updates every minute. That is, it checks the server to see if your listening data has been updated from last.fm and if so updates your sidebar.
The feature is hardly noticable but I’m already noticing that I’m manually refreshing a whole lot less.

As you know Lyrics Muse is all about quickly finding the lyrics for the songs you’re listening to right now. As such it is super annoying to click on a song only to be directed to the edit window.
For that reason you can now see if a song has lyrics or not. In most places with a link to a song “(ML)” is appended to the song title if it is Missing Lyrics.
For those of you who contribute (thanks, you guys rock!) you can still see the most popular tracks with no lyrics here but now you can simply go to Coldplay’s artist overview page and see which songs need some lyrics lovin’.
