I have a large music collection and ended up getting a Pro for that reason. However from what I experienced, my pro became my new home desktop (rarely left the house) and I ended up getting something lighter for on-the-go. Disclaimer: my pro is a few years old and the newer ones are significantly lighter.

If the mac you're getting is your only computer I would get a bigger hard drive. If you have something else at home I wouldn't worry as much unless music is that important to have on the go. Even then you have some options (itunes subscription syncs all your music to all computers so you can download on demand). I find that I only need to have a few gigs of music with me outside the house which is all on my phone.

More memory is nice but if all you're doing is surfing, email and music you don't really need to beef up that much.
