It's not so much a boycott as a PSA. You should NEVER use a service like Last.fm if you are playing tracks for which someone might sue you.
Last.fm is owned by CBS. I said "dry snitching" for this reason. I don't think Last.fm "handed over" data for the purpose of ID'ing people with the leak but rather that it seems their very business model relies on a data exchange that could put a user in danger.
