The advantages:
1) After you've reported 'enough' they'll make automated
recommendations on other things that you may be interested in. For
me, it's about as accurate as Amazon's: sometimes it's "oh, yeah, and I
even have that around here somewhere, let me find it and rip it, how
could I have missed it?" and sometimes it's "yeah, right..." But my
tastes are.. odd. People with less extreme tastes no doubt get more
credible recommendations.
ditto.
2) You can see what people who listen to 'similar' music are listening
to lately. This may pick up more interesting music for you.
3) Your last.fm 'neighbor radio' gets closer to reality ins what you
may like. You can listen to this with the last.fm player....
I have an interesting use case -- I travel a lot, and my home's uplink
speed is not very good. So if I can't get to the home Slimserver, I can
always listen to last.fm instead and it will have some decent music on it.
