FROG on Last.fm

" What's the point of putting FROG on Last.fm? I've received this question a few times from various folks after sending them invites. We're usually quick to point out that blogs, photos, video and similar records are important to the organizational memory of a group, but song is usually forgotten. The FROG group on Last.fm - FROG Music - takes into account the collective tastes of it's members and organizes them into various categories, time-frames and relationships. And this is useful how?
