The iTunes tool is your best bet. It sits quietly in your system tray and posts the tunes you are playing:

It is a separate program from iTunes that monitors what iTunes is playing. After installing it, you will need to run the tuneLogger program and log in. You can close the tuneLogger window - it will stay in your system tray.

Thanks to Moe [moe's tunelog stats] for writing the iTunes tool for Windows.

This plugin, contributed by Nick Schipano, has been tested to work with Yahoo Music Engine 1.1.1.025 and the newest version called Yahoo Jukebox 2.0:

We'll have an easy-to-use Winamp plugin for you to download soon (anyone want to help on this?). In the meantime, early adopters can use the following pain-in-the-ass instructions to get Winamp to upload your music playback stats (note that this method only works for mp3's with ID3v1 tags, so it's pretty half-assed):

• Register for an account on tunelog.com
• Enter this URL into your browser (replace your username and password):
  http://tunelog.com/api/authentication/login?username=YOURUSERNAME&password=YOURPASSWORD&appkey=440acf5d9f4acebb690d59c682906370ee3cde19
• You should get back a 40 character token. this is your login token (good for 30 days now). Paste this into the step down below when you see YOURTOKEN
• Download the Do Something Winamp plugin
• Run the installer
• In Winamp, go to your Options...Preferences...Plug-ins...General Purpose. Open the settings for the Do Something plugin.
• Uncheck "Disable Plugin"
• In the Actions drop-down, select "Submit A URL"
• Paste in this URL (replace just the YOURTOKEN part with the token you got from the earlier step):
  http://tunelog.com/api/played/track?token=YOURTOKEN&artist_name=%%CURRENTARTIST%%&album_name=%%CURRENTALBUM%%&track_num=0&name=%%CURRENTSONGTITLE%%&appkey=440acf5d9f4acebb690d59c682906370ee3cde19
• Click "Add-->"
• Click OK
• Start playing music and see if your data shows up on tunelog.com

Thanks to Alex [alex's tunelog stats] for writing a XMMS2 script. Now you can post tunes from various flavors of *nix.

Included in this package is the beginnings of a nice reusable Python module to abstract communications with the tunelog API.

Thanks to Dave [dave's tunelog stats] for writing a Squeezebox plugin. We'll post a link or the download when he's finalized it. Contact us in the meantime to get a copy.

Alternatively, you don't have to download anything: you can listen to Pandora and tunelog will track all the tunes it plays for you.

We are starting to work on some widgets you can put on your blog or webpage to show your tunelog stats. Pretty basic right now.
