Yes, that. You can repeat the import and it will only import new data. But this is more meant as a mean to migrate from last.fm to ListenBrainz and not for continuous sync.

ListenBrainz can be directly connected with Spotify, though, and will record all the listenings from there.

Apart from that this plugin of course makes mostly sense when users are actually using LB.

It could be quite interesting to have something similar for last.fm or, as suggested above, Spotify. For various reasons I have no interest myself in putting any work into this, but I invite everyone who’s interested to take my plugin as a basis for such a plugin.

I guess so, yes. I’m not one of the developers, but I have done multiple ListenBrainz integrations and also very actively use it myself. Also I have in some way or another worked on multiple MusicBrainz related projects, mainly MusicBrainz Picard.
