Get_top_artist limitation in pylast??? #72

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I use pylast program to get information from Last.fm API.
During my research project, I use pylast program to get information from LastFm 
API.

When calling:

top_artists_of_country = geo_country.get_top_artists(limit = 1000)

I find that it can only return 500 records, however my limit is set to 1000.

So, is there any restriction on this extracting operation? For example, LastFM 
API can only return no more than 500 query records?

Many thanks, experts:)

Well, it seems that the pylast project is not so active.

500 is a limitation of Last.fm. See http://stackoverflow.com/a/8572756/724176
