How do you find new music for your collection?

I don't even know, it just somehow finds its way to me.
Probably when I'm looking for other music to download, I accidentally come across an artist, get interested, and listen.
Last.fm suggested a couple of bands, but it's not very helpful.
In Guitar Hero, I sometimes hear something new; recently, I listened to Disturbed there, downloaded the album, but I've put it aside for now because I'm not in the mood for that kind of music right now.
I also have a huge collection of music CDs that my sister gave me; sometimes, I take a disc from there and listen to it.
A year (or more? oO I don't even remember anymore) ago, I downloaded the Gothic Spirits compilation; it doesn't have much gothic music, but I discovered several good bands there (Epica - now my favorite after Nightwish, Therion, Graveworm, Eyes of Eden, Draconian, Eluveitie, Midnattsol, Tristania...).
A year and a half ago, I was watching A-one, and I discovered Clawfinger there.
And the very first band (The Prodigy) that I listened to was also recommended to me by my sister, but she doesn't listen to that kind of music herself. And I don't listen to it anymore either.
