I find the whole aspect of using music in RPGs to be quite silly and have a hard time even understanding why some GM would put his players through it.
It seems to work pretty well for Game Parlor which has a loop tape of nice movie themes and other non-descript music that runs in the background.
A lot of people find that it gets their players pumped up or in the mood and keeps em focused. I can see how that would work well.
It doesnt seem silly, but I can see how if that isnt your cup of tea you might not really like it. Like I said it used to be harder to use in game, because of CD fumbling, cuing the wrong songs and so on.
How ever you can have lots of appropriate music for a game and never repeat in a session. Take 50 fathoms playlist for Savage worlds... its about 55 songs that I threw together (and that I could definitely add too.)
