last.fm the recently much hyped social radio/ music community has found a buyer who apparently draws many comparison between myspace and last.fm - CBS.

LONDON/ NEW YORK (Reuters) - CBS Corp. said on Wednesday it bought Last.fm, the online music service that allows fans with similar tastes to connect, for $280 million in a bid to attract young audiences.

The London-based service has more than 15 million active users in over 200 countries, CBS said, and has earned praise for a system that recommends songs by tracking users' music-playing habits and linking them to other fans with similar tastes.

Within a year, CBS aims to apply Last.fm's technology to build new communities for online videos that will include its own archive of hit shows, CBS digital chief Quincy Smith said in a phone interview.

Congrats to the last.fm team - what an exit!
