I used to do it quite frequently, but it's silent here now. "Gladiator" soundtrack is awesome though.

I can't say that I've really listened to much while writting, I find it distracting, but I do other things. Instead of a song fitting a scene I'm writting, I'll often make scenes in my mind for whatever is on the radio. Songs like (and forgive me if I don't know the actuall title) "You love me, but you don't know who I am", "I hate everything about you", "Animal I Have Become" (I love that song, that was one that actually fit perfectly with an entire story idea that I haven't written yet), and so on. Listening first and then making scenes is a good way to get ideas in my opinion. Different songs make different scenes, and like others have mentioned, a soundtrack could then be made and create an entire (or at least rough) plotline. My way is just the other way around from what's been talked about so far.
