I’m inclined to agree with Marco that these auto-generated lists are useless (I don’t care what music you’ve been listening to the most lately; if I did, I could go to Last.fm myself!). But this is double useless.

Not everyone uses Tumblr to feed other people’s dashboards - they use it to create their own blog, which anyone can read.  They are free to add what they want.  I can only imagine the hardship and distress some people must feel when they have to scroll past a post on their dashboard (from someone whose content they have chosen to subscribe to) that they don’t want to read.
