I don't have any in game sounds and I thought it would be a nice way to add background music to my game. I'm just trying to get ideas about how to do the interface, I want something like TuneWiki. Anyway I don't want to pull this thread off topic, so if I come up with more questions I'l start a new thread.

Correct, Dead Panic does not use the 3.0 API's that allow you to choose from your iTunes library from within the app - it's built for 2.2 with no 3.0 APIs.
You can start your music before you launch Dead Panic though, and change songs using the headphone button or double-tapping the home button. The game's music is automatically disabled if your music is playing, and Kalimba said.
I know that hardly sounds like a feature, but you'd be surprised how many games ignore the user's choice of music.
