[QUOTE="zag2me, post: 77994, member: 19691"] This is a pretty simple one, but it makes browsing music much more fun and provides scope for some interesting views of your music collection. Basically all that is needed is a db field that holds a rating out of 5. Then when a user browses to a song, then can "rate" the tune out of 5. This can be done using the keyboard or the up and down keys on the remote. A nice way to show this would be some graphical stars in a column. Here is an example screenshot of how meedio used to do it.
