Last.fm Best Of

This will be one of the most interesting "best of" lists simply because it is not a list composed by a few people, rather hundreds of thousands of people.  Compiled using plays as votes, this is a list of the most listened to artists, songs, and albums of 2008 by last.fm users.  The downside is that there isn't any merit other than popularity, therefore coldplay whoops everyone else's ass (spoiler alert).  If this angers you as much as it does me, then sign up for last.fm and help make next year better.  Check out the lists myah.
