Add option to disable default music app scrobble #67

Hi!

Long time user here! I want to now use this only for scrobbling from spotify. The reason is that the music listening history is synced across mac and ios and I have an app in ios for scrobbling (Trax).

I wrote to the developer of Trax, they replied with following: "Hi there When you synch your music with your iPad or iPhone with your Mac, your listening history is also synced with your device. If you use a scrobbler on your Mac and it scrobbles your played songs with a different timestamp (i. e. It uses the time when the song finishes or other non accepted Last.fm method), and then Trax sends the synched scrobbles with the correct timestamp with the method stated in Last.fm, the service doesn’t detect them as duplicates.

As Last.fm advices, it’s better to us just one scrobbler to avoid duplicates, or use a Mac on scrobbler that use the time when the track starts (as stated in Last.fm) to ser the timestamp of the scrobble.

Hope this helps! Oscar"

So I think the easiest way fo me would be to just disable neptunes for iTunes somehow?

Also, I saw you (developer of NepTunes- @rurza :) ) were also planning to make an iOS app. Don't you also get duplicate scrobbles for your listening across mac and iOS?

Thanks, Arka
