Usually through my "online friends" who regularly update their music blogs and such. Download a lot of the music they put up on their sites and/or share with me, as I know they all listen to good shit. Also, sometimes I'll put on the last.fm radio and let that play for a complete day or so and spot out the bands that I need to check out.

But I mostly stumble across random blogs and whatever catches my eye, I'll give it a shot and download.

Absolutely love stumbling across random music.

I stumble across it using StumbleUpon, it's pretty neat if I'm bored.

Mainly through talking to friends and people at gigs and bars. Also; facebook profiles, /mu/, wikipedia and radio.

Most of the new music that I get into now is stuff that I find on Pandora or stuff that my friends find on Pandora. It's really broadened my horizons.

Video games definately. I blame Burnout: Revenge, Burnout 3, and Need For Speed Most Wanted for getting me hooked on a few bands i love. Not only that, but If a game has enjoyable original music, I do my damnedness to find it.

Usually from the radio and TV. And once in a while, a friend or two recommends something new for me.

generally tv, movies, and video games. But I'm pretty sure all the songs that I could possibly get into have already come out.
