This is the second time I tried to type into the screenshot of your post

Links. They should underline the links. Also, the subscriber symbol sucks IMHO.

After I stopped screaming in shock, I read your blog post about the new site. I guess it’s not THAT bad, all things considered. Finding /5 took some hunting. And I want my PAINT IT BLACK BUTTON! For me, the biggest missing piece is navigation.

This small input field doesn’t encourage me to leave long comments, so I’m leaving!

The worst thing for me (and this site is a culprit too) is the tiny font sizes. When you will damn designers learn that small font sizes are not cool? Not all of sit right up in front of our monitors.

Another part that disturbed me is the Home page. You can’t get to it if you’re logged in. What’s up with that? It only gives you the option to go to your Personal page.

The last.fm team has devised made some very impressive UI solutions in the past.

Now, seeing these basic usability problems (user location indicators/page structure etc/repetative visual noise in pages) communicates to me that something has not gone right at last.fm.
