It's an online radio service that's free. You can create a channel (or channels) based on what songs or bands you like and it will play music that's similar to your tastes.
Or if you have a decent selection of MP3s you enjoy, you could always play them in the background after turning the in-game music all the way down.

Pandora runs within IE or Firefox (or whatever browser you're using) -- so whatever resources your particular browser eats is to be considered. Insofar as network issues are concerned, I've never once noticed any significant lag while it's running, but I suppose it's possible. I've had it running with other games too (like BF2) and haven't noticed any network/lag issues with them either. [Last week was particularly laggy in Nightfall and Factions, but my guildmates reported the same.]
I normally play with XFire and TeamSpeak running at the same time as whatever game I am playing. Sometimes I also have Pandora up and running and the only network/lag related problems I've ever had to deal with have all been server side. Sure, my ISP has given me a hiccup here and there, but those have been area-wide and not because of anything I was running.
Again, I suppose it could be a resource hog (depending upon your browser choice) or a network resource hog (depending upon your ISP and anything else you may also be running), so use at your own risk.
