The beauty of Dropbox is the "it just works" feeling. You put things in a folder, it's synced to all other computers, plus the web. It really is simple in the best sense of the word.
Having said that, the latest beta does allow you to choose to only sync some of the folders. So you can, for example, install Dropbox on your work computer, and choose not to sync your mp3s to it, etc. This should solve a lot of the use cases you have.
The only thing really missing, for me, is the ability to exclude specific files/folders from the Dropbox folder (like, for example, per-computer configuration files). I assume they'll allow that at some point, but for now I have to work my way around it. Still worth it though!
