My assumption was incorrect. The problem isn't in nixtape (the
software that runs the site), but in lastscrape which exports data
entity-encoded.
Take a look at, for example:
http://alpha.dev.libre.fm/user/fabsh/recent-tracks?count=1200
And check out both your plays of "Rainy Day Woman #12 & 35". The
older one, imported from last.fm presumably, has the ampersand double-
encoded while the newer one does not.
I probably don't know enough Python to go and fix the problem in
lastscrape, and don't hold a last.fm account to check it on, but I
implore someone who does to do so. The encoded data in the database
is probably not especially difficult to find and fix either.
