Two point fives and up are strongly recommended. Twos and one point fives are good but not special.

Last.fm:
Sadly when I added last.fm, all that time ago, it missed about 30% of my massive stock of accumulated iTunes plays. I've never quite got over it, and it does render some of the hip hop scrobble all time counts inaccurate (e.g. ATCQ massively undercounted). And in general last.fm needs to count time in total, rather than just look at no. of plays; otherwise there's vast overrepresentation of some artists (e.g. hardcore punk) and underrepresentation of others (e.g. jazz, ambient). To add to all that, I was using the beta scrobbler – which is really cool – but which hit me with 43,619 false scrobbles. I deleted these, but that had collateral damage effects, destroying 1000-2000 legit scrobbles from my library. But all this notwithstanding check me out

My film wishlist is "want to see" rather than "want to own" since I don't usually re-watch films.
