I'm not sure you know how Last.FM works. It allows you to create a profile, select types of music and bands you like and it will generate your own personalized radio station out of it. In addition to this, it will connect you to other people who share you preference in music, gather their data and extract other artists/songs it thinks you might like. It's a great way to find new music that isn't completely mainstream and pumped out on a regular basis on normal radio. For me it's a great tool. I listen to music almost every waking moment of my life. While studying, driving, programming, and even gaming.
While I won't be able to use this DURING gameplay I'll still be able to find music I like and get it so I can play it off of my music memory stick during gameplay (Yes, I keep all my music on a 32 GB memory stick so that I can listen to it any time I'm close to an electronic device).
So you see, it can be greatly useful. I don't have time to dig around for new music but I'm always wanting to find some. This makes it effortless and as a Gold subscriber I get to make use of it for "free" instead of having to pay for a separate account on Last.FM.

I'm not sure if you have a 360 or an HD-DVD drive if you do, but if you're looking for new uses for your "cup handler" (assuming you have one) take a look at this: http://editorials.teamxbox.com/xbox/2166/Ways-to-Extend-Xbox-360-HD-DVDs-Life/p1/
1980's radio. Ha! Look above and see just how wrong you are. You've gotta chill out man. If you're taking this "war" seriously I think you should step outside and take a deep breath or two. If you're simply doing it for the "thrill" of annoying people then you seriously need to find a new hobby - or at least do it on GameTrailers.com. That type is welcome there.
