I've been spending a little time at a couple of other sites lately. First, multiply.com is a community site that makes it really easy to share music & photos, keep a blog/journal, etc. It amazingly offers unlimited storage of your mp3s and everything else, which you can upload and organize into playlists. Then other users (everyone, or just your contacts) can listen and comment. My new page is here.
The other new (to me) hangout is Rate Your Music (RYM). I've been looking around for an easy and useful way to catalog my physical music collection (cds and vinyl). RYM is like a wiki for music, in that anyone can add or edit information on artists and albums. Plus, you can write reviews, rate albums, and most importantly, register which releases you own, and on what format. It looks like there are other features that could be cool, but that I haven't looked into yet, like compatibility with other users' ratings, etc. (Presumably like last.fm's neighbors.) If you want to see what I've entered so far from my collection (definitely a skewed sample), my user page is here.
If anyone has other suggestions on ways to catalog my music collection, please let me know. Delicious Library of course looks awesome, but I don't have an isight or barcode scanner and a lot of my vinyl albums don't even have bar codes anyway. Plus it costs money.
