Especially if the song has a bunch of talking at the end (who does that?!).</p> I guess because I find myself skipping to the next song with like 5 or 10 seconds to go.

Should be MIN(tracklength, MAX(30, 0.8 * tracklength)). The MIN/MAX thing isn't that important... I was just thinking that if you have a bunch of 3 second songs and you're skipping through them quickly you wouldn't want them to be considered "played" after only 2 seconds. I might have over-thought that.</p> Oh yeah, good point. Should be MIN(tracklength, MAX(30, 0.8 * tracklength)).

So I suppose you put that there so one has to listen to at least the first 30 seconds. I guess you just need a special case for tracks shorter than 30 seconds.</p> Actually, I’m a moron and that doesn’t do what you want either… So I suppose you put that there so one has to listen to at least the first 30 seconds.

Otherwise a 37 second track will never be "scrobbled".</p> <p>Also, why do you love this option so much? Not patient enough to finish up the song? :P</p> Don’t you mean MIN(30 seconds, 0.8 * tracklength) ? Otherwise a 37 second track will never be “scrobbled”.
