Unless you hack it, you're stuck with what you have for the internet browser.

Protip: Use a computer for internet browsing.

You can listen to music in-game, but only a select few games support that feature so far. I believe many newer games will support it and some current games will be patched.

You're stuck with the current browser unless you install Linux, but that would kind of be a waste of time if you're just looking to browse. Stick with your PC browser.

Burnout Paradise added a new feature that lets you do this.

NCAA let's you choose songs of your own based on events, like kickoff, touchdown, etc .. , but i dont think thats what you mean
