"For example, if you often listen to a certain musical artist, we or an advertising partner with whom we share your personal information might display an advertisement alerting you to the release of a new CD by that artist."

Which is not entirely terrible. Something very similar goes on with last.fm, which gets the tunes I listen to from Amarok. What I would want to avoid would be incessant reminders of bands and cds that are like the stuff I listen to. Music execs and marketing droids are terrible at gleaning likes and dislikes from playlists.
