Amarok 1.4.1 has been released with included support for Last.fm streams, so it is now possible to listen to your favorite tag radio right in Amarok. Other new features include a completely revamped custom icon theme, creative nomad jukebox support, support for custom scoring algorithms, and the new Advanced Tag Features framework.

The Amarok development team.

Word from the developers:

"... Advanced Tag Features will allow collection statistics to stay up to date regardless of the track being moved. This is disabled by default.... Note, this technology can be considered beta, it is not known to cause problems, but it may. We have also disabled INotify support for this release, there were a number of things that needed more attention before it would be added."

You can immediately obtain Amarok 1.4.1 'Fast Forward' in the Amarok Wiki at http://amarok.kde.org/amarokwiki/index.php/Download/.
