OK, then we can't blame last.fm ;)

A more direct way of debugging hang-ups is to run the program is
debugger and see the stacktrace. Next time Amarok starts hanging up
often on your computer,
 1. Run amarok in GDB:
gdb amarok
(wait for GDB to load...)
run --nofork
 2. When the UI hangs up, go to the terminal where you started GDB and
press Ctrl+C to "pause" the amarok process.
 3. See the stacktrace:
bt
 4. Or even better, see the stacktraces for all threads:
thread apply all bt

A stacktrace will probably show where in the code it has "hung up".
