reason to install to /media is that this can be a separate file system formatted with XFS, while you may want ext3(4) for your home directory. While this is more of a video set up, it still shows a use for the design...as well as allowing the sharing of media across users on the same box without compromising the security of your home directory. You can always create a link from /media/pr0n to ~/pr0n for convenience =)
