Last.fm debuts free music service

Social music site Last.fm has launched what it describes as the world's biggest free music service.

It is promising to pay unsigned artists royalties every time a user streams a track to their computer.

The website has done deals with the four major record companies as well as more than 150,000 independent labels to offer access to their catalogues.

Users will be able to listen to any track - streamed rather than downloaded - up to three times.
