I tried it in SC 7.3 this morning. The integration works quite nicely. However, I was disappointed with the Deezer service itself. There's not a wide range of choice in the provided radio stations. I searched for "Pink Floyd" and played the smart radio. The first track played was Pink Floyd, but soon after it jumped to Guns'N'Roses! A few tracks later it played another G'N'R song, and then again after that. I looked at the related artists. This revealed a small list of 10 artists - not a massive set of similar artists; missing quite a few obvious choices I'd expect to see. However, I searched for other artists, and got 10 similar artists back each time, so perhaps this is a limit imposed via the SC plugin or the Deezer API? Searching again for the same artist returned the same 10 hits. I've had much better experience with Last.fm.
