I’ve made a Last.fm API key but at the point of adding it to Navidrome I wondered why I was bothering; is this option only there because of backwards compatibility or is there a tangible benefit?

    I’m just guessing so your scrobbling can be associated with you. I can’t think of any other reason right now.

      Scrobbling’s set up per-user using OAuth in the browser, which is better since different users can scrobble to different accounts.

      I’m guessing it’s left in because why remove it since it’s working, and it would be useful if the default API key stopped working.
