Well, I personally will listen to stuff other people like just for the sake of getting along, but I make no secret of the fact that I like other stuff (classic rock, to answer the original question, though I don't know as it's the best music to code to... classical is probably best for the concentration, if it's good classical. I like a mix). And neither do I make a point of mentioning what I like either. It really isn't that big a deal...
You might not even know who you trust... if you just answer some questions about what you like/want to see, they could match you up with one or more raters that match your opinions in general. It probably wouldn't be 100% accurate (and probably subject to much abuse), but it'd be a good start.

Perhaps they know something about his work at Transmeta that we don't.
Sorry, I had to say it.
