I don't believe that services like last.fm should be free and to be
honest I'm surprised we were allowed to continue this long with an
ad-free service via the Squeezebox. I do think, however, that other
business models need to be explored.

I'm more disappointed that yet another service has become unavailable.
Outside the US we have few options as it is.

Also, the wonders of currency conversion translate $3 to be £3 (almost
$5 at today's rates). Still not a lot, but at that price the value
becomes questionable, especially when £5 can give you a true on-demand
service like Napster.
